Great spa amenities and location. Room (without a view) a bit small and not to the standard expected. Looks a bit dated and for the price point we expected something better. Good experience overall.

Fantastic!
Amazing views of the harbour and sea. The ancient city walls are all around the pool which is very cool. We had drinks in an ancient turret, which was a great experience. The location is also fantastic as you are in the old town. We both enjoyed the lunch we had in the hotel and the drinks we had.

This hotel was awesome! We had a room over looking the water and the pool. The staff, especially the receptionist were incredible. (I’m sorry I forgot her name but she came from Madagascar). She was sooo helpful, polite and professional. She gave us directions to things we should do and see. Also, the hotel itself is great. Really well renovated very old building that gives it a nice aura about it.

We liked the location of the Hotel Genovese as well as the dining room. What we did not like was the lack of an elevator and the fact that not only did we have to walk down all the steps to get into the hotel, but all the luggage had to be carried down the steps when arriving and up all the steps when leaving. For that reason we did not bring our large luggage to our room. There was no offer to have the luggage carried for us.

Great location, but not worth with what you get
They turned off the AC and the front agent lied stating it would turn on… after calling several times, it was then I noticed he had left for the day. No replenishing of the water bottle, no extra towels and the technology with respect to the doors doenst work properly. The spa steamer and steam bathe were not working and no staff to help

An absolute Jewel in the Crown
Our first time in Corsica, we stayed to celebrate our 30th Anniversary .. Loved the clean modern feel in a reclaimed site .. Old city walls , turrets and amazing views over the harbour. The staff were the absolute best I have ever come across, nothing was too much trouble .. The staff were all relaxed and friendly and this added to ambiance .. We hope to return in a few years

Stay up top or down low. Either way It’s a win.
Amazing from the porter opening our taxi door to the concierge setting up a private boat tour and making restaurant recommendations. We stayed in the annex which had an oversized room and multiple balconies. We had an amazing view of the ships coming in and out and we were just steps to the lively scene on the marina. We ordered room service late night and it arrived promptly. The staff was delightful and the main hotel was super scenic and great for sunset.

Quiet stay away from the port
Fabulous hotel in the citadel, quiet and elegant. Service was very good. Excellent for gluten free/Coeliac. Downside, the doors don’t stop the wind so the bedrooms can be noisy - it’s windy on the hillside. The water wasn’t renewed after our first night and at over €300 per night we had expected that and turndown. Otherwise perfection.

Gorgeous hotel, gorgeous location! This is the loveliest hotel - in a prime spot up in the citadel overlooking the harbour & the ramparts & town buildings opposite. Wow! What a view! And what a fabulous place! Friendly helpful staff, gorgeous pool, super comfy beds, fluffy towels & bathrobes, tea/coffee making facilities, minibar, safe - everything you need. Our room had a separate sitting room & outdoor terrace overlooking the harbour. Wow! Gorgeous! I wanted to move in forever. It’s luxurious but laidback & friendly. There are even a couple of hotel cats wandering about. Nothing not to like!

We stayed there for one night and enjoyed it very much. Great location and setup. Did not try the restaurant but heard go things about it. Pool area is beautiful with great views of Bonifacio Port but the pool temperate is cooold! Great staff as well.

Hotel split into two.
Note if booking that you get a room where you want, either by the quay side (away from pool / bar), or at the top of hill. Wasn't a problem for us but may be for some. Quayside apartment is spacious, with a great view of the harbour. Hotel in good central location.

Fantastic location, great room, lacking facilities
Best location in the middle of the old town, overlooking the harbour; very nice and helpful staff; beautiful room (we had a deluxe double), which I considered above standard, nice bathroom with good amenities; Only negative points, but unfortunately quite important for a good stay in summer season: the Aircon is basically blowing cold air behind the curtain, away from the room, which doesn't get cool at all; we had to sleep on the floor one night (quite pricey for sleeping on the floor...) Next to the Aircon one night, as the night before we couldn't sleep as it was so smeltering hot inside the room. The other downside was the bad, useless WiFi that didn't really work most of the time, and if, very slow; if you need to work, this would be very bad. Unfortunately that made an otherwise great hotel with great staff a bit uncomfortable, but it's definitely a great hotel.

Superb location that justifies the price.
It´s not cheap but if you want the best view and the chillest atmosphere in Bonifacio downtown and/or old city, Genovese is the place to be. We spent ours at the poolside area, either lying in sunbeds reading books or standing along the old fortress walls watching boats enter and leaving the marina 150m below us.

great experience - but be aware of the location
We booked a luxury suite on the Hotels.com website that showed the amazing location of the hotel and pool at the citadel location in Bonifacio. When we arrived we found that we had been placed in the hotel annex located at the port, well away from the main hotel . There was no mention on the Hotel.com website booking page of the room being in an annex far away from the hotel amenities. The hotel kindly upgraded us to a better room, but were unable to move us from the port area. After adjustment, it turned out well and we loved being in the port location. The hotel ran a private shuttle to the main location on request.
