AL MOUSSI RACHID

An absolute disaster of a place! We booked our room months ago, and arrived today to find the place closed! Apparently for renovations (painting!). If it wasn't for the friendly ladies who happened to see us struggling with the entrance door we would have been left completely in the dark. Not a single email, text or information from the owner. The website is "under construction" but no mention that bookings cannot be fulfilled. A bunch or amateurs are running the place. Stay away.

Small and cosy place, warm and friendly welcome at the reception. Breakfast was served in a tiny room and it felt like in grandma‘s living room. |We were glad to have air condition, as it was very hot that time. The room service surprised us with fantastic „animals“ on our beds (made out of towels).|The location is perfect, near to the bustling city center of Bastia.

I had an incredible stay at Hotel du Palais. The hotel itself was charming and well-appointed, capturing the essence of Corsican beauty and culture. The location is also perfect right in downtown Bastia. Each interaction with the staff was a delight, whether it was getting recommendations for the best local restaurants, receiving prompt room service, or simply engaging in pleasant conversations. Highly recommends!

This really felt like home away from home :) The owner is so friendly and sweet and really made our stay incredible! Rooms were cleaned daily and everything was always neat and tidy when we returned. Breakfast is more than you can ask for, fresh pastries, bread, eggs any style, coffee, cheeses. Very vegetarian friendly with soy milk and soy yoghurt as well :) the room was a great size for 2 people (friends traveling together, each with their own bed) nice bathrooms with a great shower. We loved having this place as our base during our whole trip in Corsica! And within Bastia it is centrally located, everything is within walking distance.

We spent one night in this hotel and it was gorgeous. I have to admit that quality to price ratio is very good. Hotel rooms are very cozy and kept clean. Youssef was very helpful making us a breakfast at 7 am that we can make it on time for a ferry. It was a very good experience.

The hotel is dirty and located in the busy street. Windows are very poorly isolated so it seems that you are sleeping on the road. Though smoking is not allowed the room is smelly. What is most important the pictures in booking are not true! Also in the single room the show is just opposite the bed, in the same room. THERE IS NO TOILET in single rooms, the toilet is shared between 4 rooms and it's not mentioned anywhere. But the worst is the owner. I told him in the polite way the room does not match the picture and he told me to get out since he doesn't want me as a guest anymore even though I had two nights booked, then there were 4 hours between me him and booking.com which ended by booking bringing me to another hotel. He also called the police (who were nice enough to calm me down and bring me to another hotel) and he attacked me and forced to pay for 2 nights though booking already changed reservation for 1 night. Nightmarish hotel and nightmarish owner! This has nothing to do with the stars the hotel "has" 2 that they claim is too much, it should be 0

Central with parking in the street. After entrance you must walk one floor up. Nice welcome from the staff. Nice room. Clean and modern. Our room was inside with window to backyard. Extremely hot. A fan made some air but we did not sleep well. They only accept Amex card or cash.

Perfect location in the heart of Bastias old town and steps away from the old port which is the most beautiful area of old buildings and nice restaurants to suit all tastes!||||Youssef is a wonderful host and ensures everyone is felt welcome and at home from the minute you walk through it’s pleasant reception area. ||||I made last minute booking as never organized!!!! ||He gave wonderful recommendations on where to eat and also re market area on where to get best charcuterie and cheese. ||||I spent 5 days traveling and returned to Du Palais on last night as it has a wonderful homely feel. ||||Room was spotless and linen /towels etc all perfect . ||||Also, I got cups of tea ( I’m Irish need my tea!!!) which Youssef kindly made for me!! ||||100 percent recommend for friendliness, location and vibe! ||||Angela
