We chose to stay at the Best Western Plus Ajaccio Amirauté, as it is near the Napoleon Bonaparte Airport (8mn by car). We will park in the outdoor parking lot near the hotel; an internal parking lot is also available and allows direct access to the reception with its elevator.

The hotel was quite busy when we arrived; we waited for a little for the check-in and received a good welcome. We were in the period of COVID-19 with mandatory mask wearing indoors for adults.

The hotel is modern with a simple and functional style in yellow, brown and blue colours.

The first floor is organized into several spaces:

• an alley leading to the desk reception,
• a relaxation area with armchairs and a sofa,
• a workspace with printer and computer,
• the breakfast room, separated from the reception by a library.

The Best Western Plus Ajaccio Amirauté hotel offers family-friendly rooms. Here are the different types of rooms offered:

• comfortable with a queen size bed
• superior category with a queen size bed
• a Junior Suite with a king bed
• a Family Room with a king bed and two single beds.

We will get the latter.

There are a few essentials in the room, such as a mini-refrigerator, a safe, a kettle with instant coffee, and bottled water.

The bathroom is modern, in sober tones. The space is optimized and functional. Note that hygiene products are offered in large containers.

Breakfast is offered on the first floor in a pleasant space from 6:00 am to 10:00 am from Monday to Friday and from 7:00 am to 11:00 am from Saturday to Sunday. It costs 14 euros per person, 7 euros for children from 7 to 12 years old and free for children under 6 years old.

You can also have your meal on the terrace overlooking the pool. Not far away, there is a ping pong table.

The offer is varied and excellent with its pastries, cereals, cheeses, eggs, cold cuts, yogurts, etc.

The hotel offers its Beach Western Pool Bar, open daily on the pool terrace from 1:30 pm to 11 pm. You can order sweet and savory dishes.

Finally, next door to the hotel is the Courtepaille restaurant, a family-friendly French classic open daily. It is even possible to have it delivered to your room (at extra cost).

One of the advantages of the Best Western Plus Ajaccio Amirauté hotel is that it offers a terrace with a pleasant outdoor heated swimming pool with a view of the Ajaccio bay and a whirlpool bath (reserved for +18 years old).

You can get in through the parking lot elevator, and you have to ask for the towels at reception.

The hotel offers meeting and conference rooms and audiovisual equipment as needed.

You may stay with your pet, however, some restrictions apply.

We stayed at the Best Western Plus Ajaccio Amirauté hotel only one night after our plane arrival and have very good memories of it. Simple, practical and accessible for families, we recommend it.

The only drawback is that you’ll need a car to get to the center of Ajaccio.
