Top Old Port of Marseille Hotel Reviews

Hôtel LIFE Marseille VP Vieux-Port

8/10 Good

"This is an interesting place to stay with some pros and cons. First, the positives. The location is outstanding, overlooking the marina. It is within walking distance to many good restaurants and the major historical sites. The hotel staff was very nice and helpful. The included continental breakfast was good and the orange juicer was a nice touch. As for the cons, which were not really a problem unless you have mobility issues, or need to stay at 5-star hotels. FIrst, you have to walk up 40 stairs to reach the reception area. This is a non-starter for people with limited mobility and even a challenge for people with heavy bags. There is a small elevator from reception to the guest floors. Next, our room was small, but this was not unexpected for a small hotel in the middle of a European city. Since we don't spend much time in the room, this was not an issue for us. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this hotel if you are fit and are looking to explore Marseille by foot."

Grand Hotel Beauvau Marseille Vieux-Port - MGallery Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Centrally located in Vieux-Port, yet reasonably quiet, this was a wonderful base from which to explore Les Calanques, Arles and Marseille itself. The room was generously sized, everything worked and the staff was friendly and helpful."

Maisons du Monde Hôtel & Suites - Marseille Vieux Port

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. Check-in was easy and welcoming, and the location right on the Old Port was fantastic. Our room was clean, comfortable, and had excellent blackout curtains, which made it easy to get a great night’s sleep. The breakfast buffet was delicious, with a great selection to start the day. The hotel is also conveniently located within walking distance of many restaurants, shops, and local attractions. Overall, a comfortable and convenient stay in a fantastic location. We would definitely stay here again!"
