We stayed at the Suite Home Hotel in Porticcio and were pleasantly surprised!

The terrace, the pool and the view from our room balcony were the main assets of this establishment in our eyes.

In this article, we give you an overview of the place and our impressions of our experience. You’ll find plenty of photos to get your own idea of the place.

This review is completely independent, we stayed anonymously and paid our bill in full.

Why stay at the Suite Home Hotel in Porticcio?

We loved our stay at this hotel. Outdoor facilities include a pétanque court, ping-pong table and children’s facilities. It’s an ideal place for family vacations in particular. We’ve included it in our list of 10 luxury hotels and in our article on the 12 best hotels in and around Ajaccio. Here are its 3 main assets, in our opinion:

  • the outdoor heated pool: a pleasant place to relax on sunny days, surrounded by a terrace. We really enjoyed relaxing here and taking in the surroundings.
Pool
  • the spacious room: comfortable and airy, with a lovely view of the pool and garden. It was equipped with all the comforts needed for a pleasant stay.
Room
  • the terrace: we really appreciated the balcony off our room. It was the ideal place to relax and admire the scenery after a day’s sightseeing.

Is the Suite Home Hotel worth it? Our review

We are very satisfied with our stay in this establishment. The location is ideal, as it’s close to the Plage de Porticcio and its tourist attractions. Our room was large and comfortable. We also found the staff very friendly and helpful.

Outdoor terrace

We enjoyed the buffet breakfast overlooking the terrace and pool. In our opinion, this establishment is perfect for families. It has a large garden with lots of facilities, which is great for keeping your children occupied. We highly recommend this hotel!

Decoration and atmosphere

Colorful decorative elements broke up the simplicity of the decor. This mix was quite interesting, as it energized the aesthetics of the place. For example, some of the walls in the bar area were purple. It’s a color we haven’t seen much of elsewhere. This is also where we had breakfast. The large bay window overlooking the outdoor terrace gave the room plenty of natural light.

Breakfast room and bar

In our bedroom, the warm colors contrasted with the beige tones, inviting us to relax. We felt right at home. The room’s airy layout and simple, modern furnishings won us over.

Room

The hotel’s outdoor terrace was very nice. The atmosphere was warm, thanks to the surrounding vegetation and palm-leaf parasols. We loved having a drink there at the end of the day. We imagined ourselves on a tropical island, thanks to the magnificent weather and unique setting.

The room

Our room was sober with colorful touches, offering a relaxing atmosphere. We particularly liked the contrast between the beige tones and the colored elements. As you can see from our photos below, the bright blue pillowcases and bedspread stood out and made you want to throw yourself on the bed. A little nap is in order, isn’t it?

Room

The main feature of our room was the private balcony overlooking the pool and outdoor terrace. It was big enough to accommodate 4 people. We really appreciated this space, which made the room even bigger.

Our bedroom balcony

From the balcony, we could enjoy the unique setting of the establishment. If you come with your children, you can even watch them play in the pool from your bedroom terrace.

The bathroom

In our room, the bathroom was small but functional. It included a shower. It was equipped with a washbasin, mirror, hairdryer and storage cupboard for linen and towels. We appreciated the separate toilets.

The breakfast

Breakfast at the hotel takes the form of a sweet and savory buffet served between 7 and 10 a.m. every day. We found local products such as jams, cured meats, cheese and Corsican dairy products.

Breakfast

We enjoyed the choice of products on offer: viennoiseries, breads, brioche with sugar crystals, fruit, cereals, eggs in various forms, and other delicacies. The breakfast was rather classic, but the products were good.

Breakfast

As for drinks, we opted for tea and fresh orange juice. A little note of originality: we really liked the honeycomb! We’re big honey eaters, so this playful way of tasting it appealed to us.

Equipment and common areas

The hotel’s heated swimming pool is very much appreciated. We loved swimming there after a long day’s walk through Ajaccio. The terrace around the pool features a number of deckchairs. This is the perfect place to relax.

Heated swimming pool

In the on-site garden, you’ll have access to a range of entertaining facilities. Ping-pong fans, get ready to play your best games in a calm, natural environment.

Table tennis

After a good meal or at the end of the day, we recommend a game of pétanque. The setting is particularly pleasant. You can even make out the Corsican mountains in the distance!

Petanque court

If you’re looking for relaxation, we recommend you try the hotel sauna. We found it clean. What better way to relax before diving into the pool!

Sauna

And for the more sporty among you, there’s a gym on site. The room was particularly bright when we passed through.

THE SAME MISTAKE WE MADE

On one of our last trips to Europe, a hacker stole our credit card details while we were using a hotel WiFi.
So our trip began with a “card blocked” call… Not funny at all!

The restoration

The hotel bar is the ideal place to relax and enjoy a drink. It offers a wide range of alcoholic beverages and soft drinks. You can also sit out on the outdoor terrace and enjoy the view of the pool with a cocktail in hand. We liked the fact that the establishment has a snacking service, open every day between 12pm and 10pm.
