At the crossroads of events

The hotel is located at the entrance to Corte (coming from Bastia), away from the hustle and bustle and traffic yet close to the shops and restaurants in the town centre. In the centre of the island, Corte's rich natural and cultural heritage attracts many events every year. The Musée de la Corse, located in the Citadelle, hosted an exhibition by Matisse in 2021, entitled 1898, Matisse En Corse, "Un Pays Merveilleux" (1898, Matisse in Corsica, "A Wonderful Country"), which attracted many visitors, including those from the mainland. There is also a farmers' market in Corte, and the Venaco fair, which takes place every spring.

Trail UTC 2024

Every year now, Corte organises the UTC (Ultra Trail de Corte 110km and Restonica Trail 69km), which is part of the UTMB World Series. This year, 2023, hundreds of competitors, including some of the world's best trailers, will line up at the start.

Rivers and lakes

As for nature, you'll love the freshness of the Restonica river (access by car is preferable) and the beauty of the Taviganu, with its natural pools that are very popular in summer, directly accessible on foot from the heights of the old town.

If you drive a few kilometres further into the Restonica valley, you can enjoy sumptuous mountain scenery as you hike around Lake Melo and Capitello, two glacial lakes of remarkable beauty. All these sites are protected and call for everyone's benevolence and responsibility in preserving this wild and fragile environment.

Other experiences include horse riding, canyoning and discovering the turtle village of Moltifau.
