Great value stay in central Marseille
Good value hotel near the train station. Buffet breakfast was decent, enough choice for vegans including almond milk on request, toast, beans, fruit salad, little jars of apple sauce and cinnamon stewed prunes which were delicious

ÄWe stayed there just to catch the train in the next morning, as the hotel is directly located in front of the train station. But the quality was beyond our expectations - the rooms were located at the backyard of the property. So, we didn’t hear noise from the front street as we thought we would. The room was spotless, modern, with a good smell. Bed was comfortable . I think they pay attention to the details like other boutique hotels. The only thing would we hoped that the choice of food on the breakfast menu could be wider. Otherwise, a very comfortable stay.

Lovely hotel, great staff.
The reception staff were all very friendly,helpful and inviting. They stored our luggage on arrival as our room wasn't ready. (We arrived early) Breakfast was great, lots of options. Location is walkable to the city centre for restaurants and shopping. Our room was very clean and quiet even though we were facing the main street.

Nice hotel, helpful friendly staff, good breakfast bad neighbourhood. For the cost of the hotel if you are stay few days I would suggest the vieux port. Much better neighbourhood. Alex is great for one night and a need to be close to the station.

We loved this hotel, and it’s convenience to the train station and many restaurants.
The staff were super friendly and the rooms were clean and comfortable.
