Great stay with very helpful staff. Our only issue was that we kept getting a very strong smell of cigarette smoke coming into our room which seemed to manifest itself near the large vent/air con by the bathroom. Being non-smokers with a toddler it was pleasant at times.

The hotel is well located, clean and minimalist. The only critique is that luggage has to be brought up a steep two floors staircase to the reception area. Then there’s a small elevator to go up the other floors.

The stay was great. We stayed for only one night but everything was rather convenient from places to eat and shop. I would recommend anyone to stay at this cozy and chic hotel.

Guests should be warned that there are lots of stairs to climb. The staff was very helpful. The location is probably the absolute best place in the city. We enjoyed a wonderful view of the port, and were surrounded by restaurants. The only downside was the stairs.

Disappointed

Great location but the rooms are very small. I booked a family room luckily which gave a little extra room but the other rooms have absolutely no room to put your stuff. The breakfast Buffett was ordinary. Be prepared to carry luggage up 2 flights of stairs to get to reception and the lift is tiny.

Good location, no-frills comfort

Perfect location for one night in Marseille although the room would have felt a bit basic if we had stayed any longer. Great waking up to the view of the harbour. Plenty of good bars and breakfast spots nearby. Room was well soundproofed. The lift was very small and jolted a bit. Staff were friendly and efficient. Would recommend for a one night stay.

Very well situated right opposite the old port. Out room looked over the port and was beautifully cool, with whisper quiet air conditioning. Good breakfasts, home made yoghurt and a good selection of meats, cheeses, breads, croissants and drinks. The staff could not have been more helpful and spoke several languages.
