A good hotel is a great location
A very good hotel in a great location with excellent view of the old port.
The hotel is basic, but the rooms are perfectly adequate for a short stay

Convenient and Comfortable
Very convenient location for a brief visit to Marseille as a tourist. Excellent price and wonderful setup. The room was a little tight with the large bed, but was comfortable. Breakfast was good.
Only negative was the hike up two flights of stairs to get luggage up to the front desk for checkin.

Nice location but poor confort
We booked a queen size bed and we had a double size bed. Also, it was hot at night even if the room was supposed to be climatised. Nice location and soundproof room tough.

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.

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.

Great location good value for money
The hotel is located on a very busy Esplanade around the Marina District. The hotel has been renovated as part of an older building. That includes new sound resistant windows that keep the noise out and with the air conditioning it was perfectly fine. Keeping the windows open at night would be impossible. That said the people running the hotel are very friendly, very helpful, the breakfast was good And it was very century located. I would recommend recommended.

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.
