Hotel’s stuffs are incredibly helpful and kind, location is okey for Marseille but you should’t go back streets of hotel. Hair drying machine was not working even the season is winter this is not nice. You should take coffee, water and tea from the breakfast room this is great

The hotel is nice and the staff was friendly. While the location was near many sites, that entire area is dirty, loud and felt unsafe especially at night. I was very disappointed with the inaccuracy of the reviews that said it was in a great location but understand opinions are totally subjective. If you’re a female solo traveling, I recommend you look elsewhere. Again, the hotel itself and staff were nice but the location is terrible.

Ashim was very sweet and nice guy that was at the reception Night Shift he was very helpful always smiling and professional .The guy who worked during the day was also as nice and professional I just don’t remember his name. The hotel room is very basic, but clean and I love that water pressure was really good and hot and we felt pretty safe even though the location has a hood kind of vibe, but it was totally safe to walk around even late at night and always find good affordable options for food

Update hotels.com info please

The hotel was great. But it was difficult to find and does not have laundry facilities Please update your exterior pictures to reflect your new entrance sign and paint scheme so it's easier to find Also. You indicated having laundry facilities. You don't. You have laundry service. There are no laundry facilities available for customers.

The hotel was very nice and friendly. Unfortunately I got robbed by the hotel entrance door on entering the hotel early Saturday morning. Be aware there are wallet snatchers in the area on foot and moped. Having said that, the security guard was excellent in calling the police and walking me to the police station. The hotel staff were very apologetic and offered to help in lots of ways.. I cannot thank them enough. Please be aware of guys talking to you on approach to the hotel. They wait for you to take your room key out of your wallet and then they snatch it and run off then jump on their mates moped and speed off

Very comfortable rooms, comfy beds. The front desk staff were always lovely and greeted us and chatted every time. Lovely people. The hotel is about a 5 min walk to the Port and all the restaurants and cafes. Breakfast was perfect but we aren’t big eaters so my opinion may be biased.

Good location

We had a few days in Marseille with our adult grandson. This hotel is well placed for the old port (Vieux port) area and all the eateries along it, plus a couple of museums. The hotel does offer breakfast ,which we didn't try, but it seemed popular. Tea/coffee is available free at any time. Our room was pretty comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful, but I'm not sure if the front desk is manned 24 hours.

Hôtel charmant avec excellent emplacement

Excellent emplacement entre la gare et le vieux port, très central pour tout visiter à pied. Accueil et service très agréable. Chambre petite et au calme sur le côté, literie confortable. La réception ns a gardé nos bagages pendant les 2 jours de notre séjour (1 nuit). La décoration est très sympa. Ns avons beaucoup apprécié l’accès gratuit aux boissons chaudes dans le joli espace petit déjeuner. Ns reviendrons dans cet hôtel.
