Marseille hotels

Pros: Great location, hard to beat. We had a port view room with a balcony and the view was really lovely to go to sleep to and wake up to.

Cons: Some of the furniture is a little worn, but nothing that bothered us.

Pros: Fantastic room with big picture window and balcony overlooking the Port. Great, helpful staff. Restaurant attached to the hotel is in the Michelin Guide and the food and service is excellent - Relais50

Pros: Always stay here when we are in Marseille. An excellent hotel. Rooms are large, bright & clean with of course the unbeatable view of the Old Port. Breakfast is always copious with lots of choice, including smoked salmon, yummy scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages, usual cold meats & cheese. Also fresh fruit salad & more....Hotel was very busy & we were impressed with how the lady at breakfast cleared & reset the tables very quickly & kept the food topped up so that there was always plenty. We opted to sit out on the balcony & the breakfast lady was very happy to lay a table for us, despite being very busy inside. Always a delight to stay here. Love it.

Cons: Always hate it when it's time to leave.

Pros: Location, size, cleanliness

Cons: Staff can be quite curt if you ask them for help...

Pros: All good

Cons: nothing

Pros: The view from the balcony just amazing. Breakfasts were exceptional. Staff are patient and helpful. I would highly recommend.

Cons: One of the lights in wash room didn't work during our stay.

Pros: Magic view, very cool and friendly staff. All was amazing.

Pros: This place was an absolute dream to visit during our one night stay en route to the French Riviera. The building is an architectural marvel and carries all the charm you could ever expect from a boutique property in France. The amenities, staff, and room alike lived up to the highest standards and left us in complete admiration. Albeit the city itself likely won’t ever make it on our top list of recommendations to any future travellers, this property was spectacular and definitely a gem to be commended.

Cons: We did have drainage issue in the shower, leaving it to overflow rather quickly, and the wifi signal was extremely weak within the room itself. However, these were minor issues and only mentioned to assist with management in rectifying the issues for other guests and don’t reflect our image of the property in the slightest.

Pros: Great spa.

Cons: Bar was understocked and very quiet, sometimes not even staffed.

Pros: Bed very comfortable. Nice spa. Super calm.

Cons: The bar was supposed to close at midnight and last order was at 11:30 pm. We arrived at 11:28 pm and everything was already close.

Pros: The hotel is a 5 minute walk from the bustle and restaurants and shopping of Vieux Port but in a quiet and secluded street. It has a spa which is great for relaxing, fabulous breakfast, great staff and good quality snacking if you are not up to going out for dinner. It’s an old characterful building with understated modern rooms.

Cons: There are no views from the hotel and I didn’t find a lounge but there is an outside patio which is great in the spring and summer and the rest of this very comfortable and stylish hotel in a vibrant city makes up for it

Pros: Full marks to the architects who turns this 19th century townhouse into a contemporary hotel. So many architects would have ruined the character to maximize profits, but here they took full advantage of the building’s character, while giving it all the style you want in a modern design hotel. The service was friendly and professional - the staff seemed genuinely enthusiastic to be working there and were keen to tell us about the hotel’s history and conversion. The breakfast and bar are superb and the spa in her basement is brilliantly designed. Only a short walk from the hotel to all the bits of Marseille you could want to see! Our room was big, with high ceilings and a great bathroom (the shower had room for six people - not that we availed ourself of that opportunity!), and the toiletries from Hermès were a nice touch. We didn’t get to use the private island as we were only there for a night, but that’s just another reason to return, isn’t it? All in all a lovely experience.

Cons: No big deal, but pricing that doesn’t include breakfast is always irritating, particularly at this level.

Pros: Did not live up to expectation as not very clean and not well maintained.

Cons: 1st room had a strong smell of urine and we were not ordered an alternative. Instead we were forced to upgrade.

Pros: Beautiful conversion with careful attention to details. Magnificent location in the midst of the old city with breathtaking views. Luxury accommodations at a very fair price.

Cons: Mediocre breakfast offerings. Lack of staff supervision. Not an efficient use of personnel.

Pros: Locación, serviceall

Pros: The staff is amazing Our room had an amazing balcony overlooking Notre Dame de la garde I highly recommend the hotel

Cons: The design is contemporary generic I would like the design to match the grandeur of the building

Pros: Everything super apart from staff at SPA not very welcoming and freindly

Cons: Spa staff

Pros: Everything. Hotel service was outstanding. We had a traveling delema and hotel took care of it immediately.

Cons: Food in restaurant very expensive

Pros: The staff was helpful and friendly, the design was beautiful, the bed was comfortable, and the location was perfect!

Pros: Breakfast was great. Owner was friendly and very helpful. Made me feel like a friend.

Cons: Bed was a bit hard for my wife

Pros: Sebastian went out of his way to be helpful and very kind. The room was light filled and comfortable. The house beautiful.

Cons: It was perfect

Pros: Very friendly and helpful manager who was very knowledgeable and kindly let us leave our car in the property on our last day.

Cons: Property overpriced for the comfort and especially the quality of the breakfast which was below average.

Pros: Everything. The hosts were SO welcoming and accommodating. We wish we had more time to stay.

Cons: N/A

Pros: The location was great. Breakfast was wonderful and our onsite manager, Fabien was kind, very attentive, and wanted to make sure we enjoyed our stay. All my e-mails were promptly and completely answered by Sebastien. Sebastien helped arrange a car service . The driver was excellent and they both helped us out of a bit of a predicament. Our room and beds were was very comfortable , nice linens, and bathroom was large with two sinks! Old charm with modern comforts. The living area was comfortable with books and games.

Pros: Staff everywhere were amazing Breakfast was great - especially the goat cheese and honey omelette - delicious

Cons: The towels in our room weren’t very nice - they could have been a bit bigger and a little bit more fluffy

Pros: The staff were absolutely amazing , we wanted to stay and extra night and they were fully booked but found us a space in their another location , we couldn’t stay but we loved everything so much we will definitely comeback . I fully recommend this property and their staff

Cons: Everything was absolutely perfect

Pros: Perfect location steps from the train station and a pleasant 15 mins. walk to the vieux port. Cute lobby design and lounge area with complimentary lemon water and coffee. The lounge has a wide selection of drinks and snacks, which we enjoyed. Efficient check-in/check-out process. Room was basic but had a nice balcony with a good view. Staff were friendly and gave us some suggestions on things to do (but not super helpful when a problem arose, see below).

Cons: Room smelled very musty/like sewer. Strangely, there was no smell in the hallway, just our room. We tried to identify the cause and found the pillows smelled absolutely foul - like bad body odour/sweat that had seeped into the pillow and/or the pillow cases were not clean. We had to go to the front desk and ask for new pillows, and staff were flippant and did not even apologize (wishful thinking, I was hoping we would be offered a different room as the stench was so bad). I'm not one to complain and I wanted the staff to smell how bad the pillows reeked so they could understand, but the man who came to the room said it was pointless because he cannot smell anything (okay, this is possible if he had a rare medical condition limiting his smell, but again all I wanted was an apology or some acknowledgement of what went wrong... If I were running a hotel, I would be appalled that such a pillow would be allowed into a guest room. It also made us question the cleanliness of their other linens, but we were only staying 1 night so just tried to suck it up). The breakfast area looked cute but for 14 euros it's a bit pricey, but in keeping with other hotel breakfasts. We ate at a nearby cafe instead. Part of the reason I booked this hotel was because I was excited to use the steam room and dry sauna facilities. I saw in reviews that the cost was 25 euros for 1 person or 40 euros for 2 (reviews within the last year). Well, they jacked up the price to 35 euros per person (cheaper for 2) so in the end I decided it wasn't worth it. For just 5 euros more, I could visit a Relais & Chateaux spa facility for 3 hours (Coquillade Village in the Luberon, look it up, it is stunning!) so ALEX's pricing didn't seem competitive with other spas.

Pros: Well renovated property offering modern comfortable facilities. Very close to the station. Breakfast choice was excellent!

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: Great staff. Good beds.

Pros: beautiful hotel with modern design, comfortable, across the street from the train station, big comfortable bathroom, helpful/friendly staff. We arrived early but our room wasn't ready yet, so they held our luggage for us while we went for lunch.

Cons: The area around the hotel, but that's not the hotel's fault. It's a busy area but as I walked around there during the day time, I got the feeling I wouldn't want to walk around there when it gets dark.

Pros: Location as it is close to the main station

Cons: The breakfast can be improved though

Pros: Very friendly and comfortable place to stay. Very clean linen change each day.

Cons: Some street noise early morning.

Cons: The room was next to the elevator and a bit noisy. We could also hear the music from the lounge.

Pros: The view from my room was spectacular! Actually I had choices between 2 rooms, we pick the 2nd room because the 1st room was missing the safe's key

Cons: The last 2 turns getting to the hotel was super tight! I scraped my passenger's side rear view mirror leaving the hotel. Then again, it could be that I'm not that good of a driver

Pros: Wonderful location by the sea, excellent service and homey atmosphere!

Cons: What’s not to like!

Cons: I had hoped, and specifically asked, for one of the front rooms I had on my last stay, but despite booking in February and making the request then, and again in a follow-up email, I had a back room.

Cons: I stated that hotel i could not experience their michelin rest no avalubility booking .cim do not mention i need a reservation beforehand

Pros: The Hotel is centeally located in Vieux Port area and wallking distance from cruises attractions restaurants and shopping area. Stass are friendly and helpful.Rooms are spacious bed is comfortable.. And all supplies from body and hair care to coffee and tea are of good quality brands. I recommend this hotel and will book it again if I had to visit Marseilke again.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The location and views were wonderful!

Cons: The decor was very dated and carpet was dirty.

Pros: Excellent view and very spacious

Pros: The bed was outstandingly comfortable, had a lovely nights sleep there. Also the toiletries provided are very luxurious and I like that they aren’t leaving individual plastic bottles for each guest, instead opting for large refillable bottles on the wall. Being able to check out at midday is a lovely luxury too. The bar was a lovely spot to watch the port in the evening. The barman was very friendly. I did think the drinks were expensive, I live in London and am used to paying ridiculous prices but these were a little excessive. The breakfast is lovely, a wide variety of breads, pastries, fruits, cereals, etc. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. However, I do not think it is worth €25 per person - you could eat a lot cheaper in a local cafe/bakery.

Cons: Some of the decor looked a little tired. Providing disposable slippers is not environmentally sound, neither is the shower cap/shoe shine extras.

Pros: Location, view from the room, room was clean, staff was friendly and helpful

Cons: nothing

Pros: Breakfast OK but would have liked more choice of hot food. Location excellent

Cons: A minor point but the bathroom door in the second room we stayed wouldn't close properly. The bathrooms are starting to look a little tired.

Pros: the breakfast is excellent & provides for all dietary needs. Our room had a view of the old port & we enjoyed sitting & watching the world go by! Highly recommend!

Cons: Hotel is looking tired but it’s part of the atmosphere....

Pros: All the services and helpful staff. Fabulous views from everywhere. Amazing breakfast.

Cons: Only complaint was noise from a nearby nightclub till near midnight. But I guess the hotel can’t restrict this.

Pros: Location

Cons: I was surprised to pay city tax when I checked out. I thought everything was paid when I reserved the hotel. I would like you to be more transparent about it so we can minimize disputes. I paid anyway.

Pros: Bylcony with view of the port, excellent breakfast location and breakfast menu, efficient staff.

Cons: Broken lock on the main room door, dysfunctional air condition in the room. Very limited menu before 19.00 hours.

Pros: The hotel, location, staff, facilities the view from the hotel the comfort of the room we had a great time and will be visiting Marseille again! Thank you our trip was great, transport etc

Cons: Mirimar restaurant on the Marina waited 2 hours for our food lots of people were complaining especially the French customers in there

Pros: Modern, with great view restaurant, near to main attractions

Pros: Spectacular location and views, overlooking the marina and Fort Saint-Jean. Service was excellent, Dante’s Skylounge is small but eye-popping view of the marina, and dining at Les Trois Forts was excellent.

Pros: This hotel was more than we were expecting for a costal French town. The inside was absolutely chic - super clean, amazing big bed, awesome shower, and a great view! The only con was that it was a bit of a walk from the main areas. Totally worth it though!

Pros: The location, view from the hotel and room space The check in , hotel staff was very helpful and although we came early did the effort to arrange a room

Pros: The staff were lovely and the breakfast was good.

Cons: Location by the Tram / bus line made it a bit noisy in the morning when the tram bells rang. Dinner in the restaurant was not great.

Pros: Very nice hotel The first element of the Staff at the reception was not very kind, the others were ok. Very difficult to park if you travel with a van. Nice rooms, nice breakfast.

Cons: The reception staff when we arrived.

Cons: The staff in the bar and restaurant were very pleasant and helpful. Reception left a lot to be desired. We had arranged to meet friends from overseas at this hotel. When we asked for their room number, we were given an incorrect number. When they asked reception for our room number, they were also given the incorrect room number. Here we were, both believing the other party had failed to show up ..... not clever! When I checked my credit card statement after checking out and departing, I found they had charged twice. I am still trying to recover the money.

Pros: Room was clean. Close to the tram.

Pros: Great location, very accommodating staff

Pros: The location is outstanding, the staff is extremely kind and friendly, and the room was spotless and comfortable. We showed up right when the weather turned bad, and the front desk attendant offered us umbrellas whenever it was raining out. It is a great hotel for a weekend break, as the facilities are great and you can stay without much fuss. Check in and check out is simple, and there are several parking garages, with a hotel discount, located nearby.

Cons: The room was smaller than we expected, but comfortable.

Pros: This is a hotel next to the harbor. It was nice. A short stay for us. Good referral for restaurant. Came in late by train, left early in a rental car.

Pros: Room was pretty big. Like having shower an toilet in separate rooms. Breakfast is fine. Location. It is right on Vieux Port. See what we didn't like.

Cons: Most things except the location.

Pros: All the staff were friendly and helpful. We were given a walking route to the Port. Find the grand staircase (Grand Escalier) at St Charles Station. With your back to the steps, walk down Rue Athens as far as McDonalds. Turn right onto Rue Canebiere and walk straight down.

Pros: Location and the room was spacious.

Cons: The liquid soap. You were forced to press the liquid soap for taking a shower which it was an inconvenience. No refrigerator in the room

Cons: The room was not ready on arrival (16:00). No German TV Channels. Access to German TV via Internet not Possible. Obviously TV Channels other than the Hotel Channels were blocked. Breakfast is too expensive. The so called "Mini Bar" did not contain any drinks only two bottles warm natural (still) water. It was not possible to cool the waterbottles down. The welcome drink was a bit disappointing (watery juice with ice). It would rather be better to leave the drink away.

Pros: The room and hotel were excellent and the staff friendly.

Cons: The access to the hotel when arrive in car and the parking.

Pros: New modern hotel close to Terrases du Port shopping center and a free cruise shuttle bus stop. Room was clean and comfy. Hair & body care samples and a free drink made a nice surprise.
