Hotel Saint Christophe, Calvi

Advantages: helpful staff
Disadvantages: none

...my family and i love the santa lucia hotel in palms nova on the idealyc island of majorca. the hotle is a thomson only hotel so the only fight for the sunbeds is with the british. on our recent visit there we had a problem in the airport with my daughter not being allowed to sit in the comfort seats after the tour operators had taken the extra cost off us. we sought the advise of the reps at the hotel and it was sorted out within 24hours and we ad a full refund of the excess that we had paid. the reps had a good knowledge of the area and was always available to advise if required. the hotel is of an exceptionally high standard and has recently been refurbished. can't wait for my next visit there....

We saw many guests in their cars scrutinising their bills and looking as unhappy as we were! Give it a miss and use your money better at another hotel.... Read review

There are also several campsites on the outskirts of town and I can recommend the Arc-en –Ceil campsite on the route to Nice, 3 km from the town centre. The campsite is not cheap but has great facilities and is clean and well maintained. I can also recommend the hotel Saint Christophe situated in the centre of town on the cours Mirabeau. This is a very comfortable 19 Th century 2 star hotel with reasonable prices. Aix is a compact city so don’t worry too much about... Read review
