“Truly relaxing and tranquil- can't wait to return.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2010
1
person found this review helpful

My partner and I stayed here for 2 nights half-board in mid September. Staff were very pleasant but not intrusive. Rooms - basic considering the 4-star rating but spacious and clean. Pool area was well maintained and was visually appealing. The little garden pathways and even the car-park spaces were charming and leafy - so much nicer than the standard concrete exterior areas in hotel grounds.
Throughout the hotel there are little areas where guests can sit and relax- have a drink or chat or read one of the books from the well stocked library.
The restaurant was beautiful - a tiered effect leading from the interior down towards pool level and lit with candles and over-head soft lighting, with co-ordinated flowers on each table. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful - self-service with the staff discretely replenishing. Dinner was delightful - an imaginative and inspiring menu with such attention to detail. The chef must have the patience of a saint to present the meals like works of art (and they tasted as good as they looked).
We had a car so the distance from the centre of town wasn't an issue.
All in all we came away feeling relaxed and spoiled - definitely a worthwhile stay.

“... if you want U.S. style comforts --- stay home.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 July 2010

This is a charming hotel. It is safe, clean and reasonably cool (those are my threshold tests).
The personnel were extremely accommodating, the facilities were excellent european accommodations for outside of a major urban center.
We loved the breakfast; almost anything you could possibly want in American quantitiies. We probably enjoyed breakfast the most.
Note that this hotel is a Relais Gastronomique (a bit overstated) and a Relais du Silence (no noise hotel i.e. screaming the pool, bar or restaurant (and the accept Americans?).
Not your usual hotel; but if you want some R&R --- a great choice close to Porto Vecchio and Bonifacio.

“Perfect stay... Great room, lovely staff, convenient location...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2009

people found this review helpful

We really enjoyed our stay here and it was the perfect location for exploring the beautiful beaches and other places of interest in Southern Corsica.

We stayed in a beautiful room which was extremely spacious, comfortable, modern and stylish.

We stayed on a half board basis which was exceptionally good value. The restaurant was a real treat, with a diverse menu every evening. The food was amazing and the service was great.

The hotel was much prettier than we had expected, the pictures we had seen did not do it justice. The pool and sunbed area was lovely, very well designed too with gorgeous drapes giving privacy.

Without a doubt we would stay here again!

“A Very Pleasant Experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2008
1
person found this review helpful

We recently spent four nights at Le Roi Theodore and had a very positive experience. Although the hotel is situated on an unattractive road, near a large supermarket on the outskirts of Porto Vecchio, inside the gate, it is very pleasant. This hotel would make a good base for excursions round the island for anyone with a car. It is not well situated, however, for those without their own means of transport, as taxis seem very hard to obtain in the area.

We had a pleasant, ground-floor room with a terrace. The fixtures and fittings were not first class, but the heating worked well and we had no complaints. The weather during our stay was cold and rainy, but the bar cum library had a warm fire in the evenings and we enjoyed an excellent dinner on two occasions. The food was beautifully presented; served in a polite and timely manner and tasted delicious. Dinner is a little on the expensive side, but was well worth it. All hotel staff were at all times above averagely friendly and helpful.

Our only complaint about this hotel was that breakfast was generally poor and on the last day of our stay, when we tried to get something at the official start-time of 0730, nothing had yet been laid out.

Because it was winter, we did not use the pool or spa facilities or the outdoor leisure area, but everything looked very nice. There are some problems with the interior plasterwork, leading to a few holes here and there and some mouldy corners. This is a common problem with this type of building in a damp climate and I don't think it's indicative of neglect. We saw floors being thoroughly washed every day and all areas of the hotel were clean - just a little run-down in places. We would certainly stay there again.

  • Liked — The helpfulness of the staff.
  • Disliked — Only way to get into town was to take the car.

“It looks awful.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2008

this a 4 star hotel that's a bit tired. Paid extra for a superior room and it was dismal, smelly and not very close to be anywhere near luxurious. We were expecting to much of the 4 stars it boasted expecting it to be plush . its positioning for a traveller might be perfect being on the outskirts. If you don't mind outlooks onto warehouses and a fly tiping laybye 400 yards down the road .Other neighbors are warehouse shops commercial sites and petrol stations. We got moved to a standard room which was better and then went somewhere else next day {Best Western Calvi .Ace]
