Fodor's Expert Review Hôtel San Carlu

8 bd. Danielle Casanova, Ajaccio, Corsica, 20000, France

On the edge of the Old Town overlooking the ramparts and sea, this friendly hotel—housed in a property that was once the home of Napoléon's nanny—offers comfortable rooms that make an ideal base for exploring Ajaccio. Rooms have a simple modern decor, and those on the Golfe d'Ajaccio side get an abundance of morning sunshine—the perfect way to greet the day on the Isle de la Beauté.
