Perfect for Mare e Monti hikers.
Posted 17 Sep 2019 on HotelsI was walking the Mare e Monti Sud route and this hotel was perfectly situated right beside the church, near the start of the next day's walk. The room was fine for an overnight stay and the restaurant was good and conveniently just below.
The Google map directions were horribly wrong. When I arrived tired and hot in the village at the end of the path, it told me I had 11km and over 2 hours of walking still to do!

Location is absolutely great. Your dog is welcome here! Restaurant serves a great menu with many local courses inspired by grandmother Mini. Restaurant seems a bit understaffed during service, when it’s busy you have to be patient.

DIY Reception
Posted 28 Oct 2017
Pros: Setting, ambience.
Cons: See above.
Location: Olmeto is a charming village with friendly people and a strong sense of community. It’s a good centre for walking but you need a car to get anywhere.
We arrived at 9.30 p.m. to find the hotel in darkness. The door to reception was open but there was no-one around. There was a room key in a basket on the counter - and the room was empty – so we left our luggage and went elsewhere to eat. On our return, there was still no-one around, so we went to bed.
In the morning, we found the manager, who spoke no English but managed to explain via Google translate that she had been to a family funeral. She was very apologetic and gave us a bigger room with a balcony. However, we didn’t see her again (or any other staff) for the rest of the week. Some days the room was tidied and the bed made, sometimes not.
The restaurant was closed, which was a pity as locals told us it was the best food in town. Fortunately there are two very good restaurants in walking distance (Chez Antoine, La Source).
Despite all this, I still think it’s a lovely little hotel if, like us, you prefer small family run places to big soulless establishments – it’s just that we found the (lack of) service a bit bizarre. It’s probably fine in high season.

Unique and Rewarding Experience
Posted 21 Aug 2017
Pros: Great helpful staff with some spoken english.
Superb restaurant, fabulous dishes and plenty of it.
Parking is in the adjacent courtyard, free, safe.
Cons: mattresses are traditonal but sheets are superbly clean
Location: Tucked away it its own serenity high up overlooking the valley and the coast.
Ideal location from which to visit the coast and retreat again.
After a frustrating long hot drive from Bastia, we finally located Santa Maria and found the most helpful, obliging and courteous staff. The Room was excellent for price, tranquil and airconditioned, and the whole atmosphere of family friendliness conspired with the quaint surroundings, and the most excellent cuisine especial the dishes with a local flavor, great local wines, to make this destination an absolute highlight of our stay in Corsica.

Stay away - Bed Bugs
Posted 3 Jul 2017 on HotelsOne of the worst experiences in my entire life. I am travelling a lot and I have visited plenty og hotels so far but I have never had such a traumataic experience. The room was very small. The wifi simply does not work. There is no elevator and the stairs are so narrow that you barely fit to turn carrying your luggage and the worst of all...THE BED BUGS. It's been 10 days after my stay there and there are still spots on my entire body!!!!
