Les Voyageurs

Hotel is old, and on a not so nice block. Room, hallways and interior had an old, worn feeling. Bed was comfortable, and the hotel was just a few steps from lots of restaurants. Also, just a few minutes from old town and the marina. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

We spent one night here on our way to Malta. Although well located near downtown Bastia's restaurants, bars, park, and other sites, this hotel is not worth a stay. We were initially assigned an odd room with an unacceptable bathroom including a bathtub with a handheld shower in what looked like a former closet. We were reassigned an even smaller room (#12, I think) which probably was a closet. The tiny bathroom reminded us of those in ferry accommodations -- maybe 2.5 x2.5 feet. All the same, at least there was a shower. The room held a double bed, small table and a chair both of which we used for our rollerboards. Light was minimal. The room numbering in the hotel makes no sense. While there is an elevator, areas of each floor have stairs so guests with big suitcases will have problems negotiating the stairs as they search for the rooms. Breakfast was adequate. I suspect this hotel was created by combining some odd buildings or apartments and making connections between them and rooms where they could. We would not recommend this hotel nor stay here again.

We selected this hotel for its location to the port & the fact it had car parking available & for both of those reasons we would highly recommend it. As our ferry arrived late in the day on our arrival to Bastia & was departing early the day we left a week later, we booked both nights here. The staff were very friendly & the room, although small, was clean & had all that you require. Being on the edge of the old town it was easy to go exploring & we had dinner at the Marina which is only a 5min walk away. We had booked only the basic room - for the person sleeping closest to the wall, it was hard getting around the end of the bed - but for a one night stay was OK.

Les Voyageurs is located in a convenient, central street that is great for exploring Bastia on foot, and only 10-15 minutes walk from the ferry port too. The rooms are comfortable too - though the numbering system is so random & illogical it is hilarious! Good, secure storage for bags is provided if you need to check out of the hotel before you want to leave the (very enjoyable) city, too. The ground floor area is like a time warp, with aged wood panelling & historic framed posters. Nothing appears to have changed there in the past half century, and the buffet breakfast provided is mediocre at best.
