This is our Budget pick in Bastia, a 2-star hotel at €69.20 a night in our sample. Guests rate it 8.1 out of 10 from 900 reviews, and the location score is 9.3.
It suits travellers passing through by ferry or train, since guests say both are close, and people arriving late, as the front desk is listed as open 24 hours. Family rooms are listed and pets are flagged as accepted.
Skip it if room size matters. Guests say junior suites are large, but standard rooms and bathrooms are often small. It also ranked last on guest score among the 9 hotels we compared, though 8.1 is still a good result.
Location and getting around
The address is 43 Boulevard Paoli. Guests describe a central spot near the ferry port, the train station, shops and restaurants.
By our straight-line estimates, Église Sainte-Croix de Bastia is about 13 minutes on foot (1 km) and Bastia Cathedral about 14 minutes (1.1 km). Torra d'Erbalunga is far: about 8.3 km, or 104 minutes on foot. You will need public transport or a taxi to get there.
Parking is not listed in our data, so it is not confirmed. Ask the hotel before arriving by car.
What guests say
Two things stand out in the praise: the central location close to the port and station, and a friendly, helpful team available around the clock to help with luggage and late arrivals.
The common complaint is size. Standard rooms and bathrooms are often described as small, while junior suites are reported as large.
Price and what you get compared with our other picks
