Good location in the heart of the town centre. The hotel was recently refurbished so it actually looks nicer than what the photos on Hotels.com show you.

Great central location - probably not 4 star..
The hotel is centrally located and [provided you pay] offers great views over the harbour. We were there at the start of the season [17 - 24.6.14] & the noise from the bars below was acceptable but could be a problem as the season progresses [ironic that the views & noise potential are at odds with each other?]. The room itself was clean & a reasonable size but the bed was short & the bathroom extremely cramped yet functional. The staff were courteous & helpful. The rooms, linen & bedding cleaned on a daily basis but by usual standards, I would rate the hotel as a 3 star not 4. Don't let that put you off as on balance there has to be a compromise for such wonderful views....

Lively location
I stayed at Hotel Balanea for 5 days. They hotel staff is extremely friendly. We stayed on the 3 rd floor facing the harbor. A great view. Room was clean and comfortable. The only issue one might have is the nightly music at the local restaurant below. A great location for the beach, visiting calvi and being in the heart of its harbor.

Great location, hotel needs work
The hotel suffered for us because of bad-smelling air conditioning. it is however in a good location, but if you want to get your bags to the door be there in the morning because at 1 pm streets all around become pedestrian only. there is parking nearby in the Port de Plaisance at a cheap overnight rate.

Enttäuschendes 4-Sterne Hotel
Zunächst das Positive: Hotel hat sehr gute Lage am Hafen und zur Zitadelle. Für ein 4-Sterne-Hotel hat es allerdings erhebliche Nachteile: 1) Kleine Zimmer 2) Der kostenlose Hotelparkplatz befindet sich ca. 10 min. vom Hotel entfernt. Bei Anreise nach 12 Uhr ist die Zufahrt zum Hotel gesperrt (Fußgängrtzone). Man muss den Koffer bis zum Parkplatz schleppen. 3) Hotel hat keinen Pool. Nächster Strand ca. 15 min. entfernt. Wir würden dieses Hotel nicht empfehlen. Schlechtes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Es gibt mehrere Hotels etwas außerhalb vom Zentrum, die mehr Annehmlichkeiten bieten.

Tres sympa
Un des rares hôtels avec une intention un peu deco sympa a un prix normal sur l’ile. Pas de grande qualité comme eeco en terme de details mais ca fait le job ! NB : une cafetière ou machine a expresso serait bienvenue. Ainsi qu un coffre ! Nous y reviendrons sans pb
