Silent contemporary rooms with shower and extremely comfortable bedding plus a nice comfortable bed, best staff. Cool setting, right by the centre of town as well as Cours Julien. The in-house restaurant with great menu.
No parking lot at all.

When I am in Marseille, I like staying here. It's a fancy hotel, the staff are amazingly attentive and the breakfast is extensive. Its location is unbeatable, a short walk to restaurants and cafes. The property is a 15-minute stroll to the centre. The in-house restaurant is good. The service is excellent, includes safe parking.
The bathrooms are way too small.

The rooms were big and the staff was very very nice! The location in a central area was great and cool and there were the main shopping centre and shops nearby. Moreover, it was 15 minutes on foot from the downtown. The hotel was cool and wonderful and the in-house restaurant was pleasant.

I had functional, well-designed room with a microwave, a personal safe and air conditioner. The location of the hotel was remote, really close to Marseille's cool bars and shops, metro Andre shops and cafes of cours julian, and Cours Julien which was a pleasant area both day.
