Hotel Riviera

The staff were really kind and helpful and rushed around to clean our room so that we could check-in early, having arrived on the train from Corte. The room was clean and the bed comfortable and there was a lift up to our room on the 3rd floor. It was an 8-10 minute walk from the train station, a 5 minute walk to the ferry port terminal and a 2 minute walk to restaurants, Tourist Information and the little tourist train that takes you up into the citadel and old town. Also opposite the tourist information, you can catch a little blue bus to the beaches just North of Bastia. We found a lovely sea front restaurant along the promenade called Zephyr.

A kettle and tea tray would have been very welcome in the room. Also, we were told not to open the wooden shutters or an alarm would go off, which meant we couldn't enjoy the view of the ferry harbour.

The woman on the reception was very helpful and friendly the second time we have been here. She offered us a different room because there was no Wi-Fi working on the third floor. Everything worked well after we moved to the second floor. It is in a good location because it is very close to the ferry’s ⛴ We had to try this hotel once again. Last time some things were broken in the room but that was because some guests don’t use it well. This time we were satisfied. Everything was working and there was no sock on the ground 👍 as I was commenting the last time. -> Dobby left. Fell free to come and check it out on your own.

There isn’t a possibility to stay longer, you have to leave the room at 11:00 a.m. (So, if you’re waiting for a boat you have to wait somewhere else.)

Close to ferry and plaza full of restaurants. Short walk to train station. Light airy room with a balcony overlooking a children's park and a bus station.

Breakfast was not to our taste. There was a strange scene in the dining room of an elderly lady on oxygen lying on a couch being fed by an elderly man. It felt like I was checking into a nursing home. Don't know what that meant about the rest of the residences but it did not affect our stay.

Very central location, easy for exploring Bastia. Also quite close to the port, so ferry trips are convenient. We didn't spend too much time in the accommodation itself. The room was quite basic, but with all you need for an overnight stay. Not a spectacular accommodation, but nothing to strongly complain about. It was cheaper than all the other options around.

The bathroom had some wear.

We did not have breakfast, but the location of the hotel was fantastic! We got up and could take the early morning ferry to Livorno which was just 2-3 minutes away from the hotel! Just perfect! We loved that we had balcony and could see the arrival of our ferry from there.

The floor in our room was a little sticky

The lady at the reception desk on Tuesday 19/04 was excellent. She and the cleaning lady offered to help us carry our 2 bicycles upstairs. Those friendly, helpful women create a warm welcome and great atmosphere.

The young receptionist on duty on Wednesday 20/04 could have been more helpful.

Spacious room, comfy bed awesome shower. Super clean.

From the room you can hear the sound of cars and motorbikes engines, super loud. Sometimes you can even smell their fumes if the window is open.

Basic no frills hotel, clean comfortable bed, everything was simple but worked

toilet was a bit cramped by the huge toilet paper dispenser and some maintenance to the show is needed, quite stuffy as windows need to be opened particularly in breakfast area

Well located in bastia near to the railway station and bus routes and not to far from the port and citadel

Nothing
