Unique Citadel location
Bonifacio is an amazing Citadel and would recommend a stay here for 2-3 nights. It’s a busy centre an being already in the centre before the day trippers arrive is a bonus. Great facilities in the hotel including pool, spa and electric vehicle charging.

We stayed at the port side suite, it was fantastic with great views, easy parking and walk to shops and restaurants along the best part of Bonifacio. There was also parking at the main resort so if we decided not to walk up the hill, it was easy too. Staff were wonderful, the spa is excellent and the pool lovely. We’d def stay again.

We had the most perfect stay. The location is ideal with perfect views of the harbour and easy walk to the old town. Our room with the terrace had a beautiful view of the harbour and was well appointed. The staff are very helpful and we enjoyed laying by the pool.
Can’t recommend highly enough!!

I loved this hotel. Very comfortable! I loved the location to walk straight out the door to a heritage site with amazing views. And the heritage village and shops are right at the doorsteps with soo many restaurants. Only problem is only the stairs access. And make sure you have transport to get there.

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.

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.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Genovese. Parking was simple and straight forward. The view from our room and balcony was simply unreal. The bed was comfortable and air conditioning was greatly appreciated. We enjoyed dinner from the hotel restaurant twice and both meals were excellent. The breakfast was a little too expensive for the options supplied so we only had it once. The spa amenities were included in our stay and provided some great relief after a long day of walking. Would happily stay here again and highly recommend. You can't beat the location if you want to spend some quality time in Bonifacio.
