Traveling through Corsica: the best hotels in Corsica
What a wonderful destination: Corsica! We absolutely loved this French island! It has everything: beautiful beaches, mountains, great nature, vineyards, good food. And did you know that you can even ski in Corsica (in winter of course!).
In this blog we share unique and special places to sleep in Corsica. First you will find three fine hotels per destination in Corsica (most often a budget option, midrange and luxury accommodation). Then we describe a number of very special hotels. For example, the finest hotels in Corsica near the beach, or luxurious boutique hotels in more remote places.
Round tripping in Corsica
Corsica is the perfect destination for a road trip. We drove around the island with our own car (after taking the ferry from Toulon). Be sure to read our Corsica itinerary blog in which we tell you more about a handy tour through Corsica!
In Corsica it is pleasant to go from location to location by car. We always rent cars through Sunny Cars, because then you are fully insured and you don’t have to deal with shady car rental companies. We also recommend you!

Best hotels in Ajaccio
Ajaccio is the capital of Corsica and, together with Bastia, the place where most ferries and planes land. There is therefore a good chance that you will start your Corsica trip in Bastia. Below you will find three possible hotels in Ajaccio.
Rosie’s Club €
This cute and quirky hotel is located in the center of Ajaccio. From the outside it looks a bit crazy, but looks can be deceiving! The rooms are modern, the common areas cozy and free parking! From €100 per night.
Hotel Marengo €€
Hotel Marengo is located opposite the beach, in a quiet area but close to the center of Ajaccio. The garden is lovely and lush, the rooms are nice and spacious including air conditioning and wifi. From €115 per night.

Nice hotels in Piana
Piana is the village that lies near Les Calanches de Piana. This is a beautiful nature reserve in the northwest of Corsica. Jagged rocks rise dramatically from the sea here, giving fairytale-like sculptures. You can make beautiful hikes in this area or enjoy the beach. Read all about Les Calanches de Piana in our blog.
To be quite honest we were not really “blown away” by the range of hotels in Piana. The village is really quite small and many of the hotels are just a bit standard and or outdated. Nevertheless, we have found three good hotels in different budget classes below.
Hotel Scandola €
We stayed in hotel Scandola, and had a budget room here for €80 a night including a very good breakfast. Our room was simple but spacious. The more luxurious rooms looked nice. The highlight is certainly the terrace with a beautiful view of the bay.
Appartement Bella Vista €€
This beautiful apartment has a nice living room, two bedrooms and above all a great terrace with BBQ and views of the valley and the bay. It is located in the village of Piana itself and the beach is a fifteen minute walk away. From €152 per night.

This is one of the most luxurious hotels in the center of Piana. Here you will find a swimming pool, balconies overlooking the bay and the valley, and a restaurant serving traditional Corsican cuisine. You stay here from €200 per night including breakfast.
