The room and amenities itself was nice, and central at the old harbor, however there is no access with a car and no help from the hotel how to reach it by car so you can at least drop off your bags. Staff was unhelpful (actually hung up the phone on us) and we couldn’t gain access to the hotel at midnight though the front desk is 24h.

Got a beautiful room with gorgeous shower and balcony. AC worked great wasn’t too loud and a train station right outside that goes to the main train station. Stayed a few nights dined in some of the best restaurants I’ve been to including Tuba. took the electric scooters all around marseille and they were parked right outside of the hotel. Excellent stay right across from the water.

The location is perfect - right in the middle of everything in the Vieux Port area. Walk to shopping, tons of restaurants, easy access to tourist and local transportation. The rooms are clean, the hotel is well-maintained, the breakfast was great with a lot of options, and the staff is helpful and friendly. Some late-night noise from Le Canebiere below but that’s to be expected when you’re in the heart of it all. A good choice if you’re visiting Marseille.

Whole hotel smelt of blocked drains. Generally dilapidated and in need of a full refurbishment. €16 for 2 different types of pastry for breakfast. Oh and unlimited watered down coffee. Area around hotel considered safe however, The rows of drug/drinkers adorning the streets outside really helped add to the stench from the homeless beggars that made the area friendly and welcoming.

It’s an older property but workable and more than sufficient for our needs. The location is excellent and staff helpful and courteous. My only complaint was the water had a sulphuric odor and the water was shut off for the entire hotel at 8:30 AM the day we checked out.

The man that checked us in on 13 May was very nice and helpful. The other staff were not so helpful. Did not look up when we came in or out of the building to greet us. The hotel is old and not very nice. I don’t think it’s even a 3 star. Very very basic room. There was a three star right around the corner that was much nicer than this one. I would not recommend this hotel.

Fantastic location. We had superior room so had a balcony with side view of the port. Reception staff were really friendly and the hotel felt very safe. I would have expected slightly more from a "superior room". Bed was quite basic and we were only provided 2 tea bags (1 green & 1 camomile) so if we both wanted the same - we couldnt. Also the hairdryer in our room was melted and turned bright red when i tried to use it. Bit of a fire hazard. That being said...i would stay here again

The location and overall condition of our room were excellent. Loved the solid surface floors (not carpet), the USB ports, the separate toilet room from shower/sink, and French doors opening onto a terrace with view of the port. The room was a bit tired - some work needed on walls/basevboards; but, overall, seemed clean and in good condition. The bed was comfortable and the coffee/tea pod machine was great. Staff was very accommodating to bring additional coffee/tea supplies as requested (we didn't have room cleaned/restocked). Checkin/out was a bit odd in that they charge for breakfast and you have to state at checkout that you did not take it (did not book and told reception at checkin would not have breakfast); so, it really is on the customer to confirm no breakfast and get the credit/charge removed upon checkout. But, same lady checked us in and out and she was very nice.
