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.

Not worth it

This hotel has definitely seen better days. The towels all had holes, the stairs are so slanted we were afraid they would collapse, the whole room stank of sewage or sulfur so badly that it was hard to sleep. Plus the breakfast is limited and barely edible. The location is great, but it certainly wasn’t worth the price or the discomfort.

Excellent location, walking distance too lots of beautiful sites and excellent restaurants. The area may be busy for some, for me it was part of the appeal…. No car park, but several in the area and a short walk away. I would definitely stay here again

Great location. Nice breakfast. Comfortable room. We were on the fifth floor with a beautiful view of Notre Dame de la Garde and the Vieux Port. Only draw back was the noise from the staff closet door next to us. They started opening and closing it early to prepare for breakfast.

Fine for a short stay. In the heart of the Old Port, close to bars and restaurants. Negatives were the sewage smell from the bathroom overnight and no kettle for tea/coffee.

The Oceania in Marseille is exceptionally well located. Right on the Old Port. It is an old building with beautiful stairwells and architecture outside of the room, but the actual room is nicely updated and fairly large for Europe. Immediately outside of the hotel was a bar where we could sit and sip drinks and watch the fascinating world of Marseille walk by until late in the evening. My husband who is allergic to mold and dustmites was very comfortable in the room. We even had a quaint little balcony with a side view of the port. The breakfast was lovely. The staff was also very kind about letting us leave our luggage after checking out. I would certainly recommend this place, and hope to stay there if I have the opportunity to visit Marseille again.
