161 Avenue Du Prado - 13008 Marseille

Seen from the terraces of the Notre Dame de la Garde Basilica, dominating and watching over the city, Marseilles is a surprising mosaic of monuments and other buildings. Near the harbour, you can see the towers of the Saint-Victor Abbey, which encloses crypts where Provencal Christianity began. Throughout the town, triumphant and prosperous 19th century architecture prevails, including the majestic columns of the Palais de la Bourse (Exchange), the aristocratic façades of the Prefecture and the Palais Longchamp fountains. Houses of the old town are perched on the sunbathed hillside, and the Baroque Dome of the former Hospice de la Charité stands out in the background. A little further away, small streets in the Panier district lead to the Major Cathedral esplanade. Marseilles’ Museums boast an incredibly rich and original collection of cultural and historical heritage: the Mediterranean Archaeological Museum houses one of the greatest Egyptian collections in France, The Earthenware Museum situated in a sumptuous 19th century Provencal country house presents local traditional earthenware, and the Museum of African, Oceanic and Amerindian Arts exhibits items of rare quality. When visiting Marseilles you must also discover the different districts and their specific atmosphere: quaint roads in the Panier district, lively terraces on the Estienne d’Orves Walk or the Julien Walk…

    excellent hotel for budget travellers, super clean and roomy. it was worth of the money. Only one problem though: the hotel has very limited amount of parking lots, and it could be a real problem if you come with car. since all the parking places nearby

    Basic, clean apartment in good location next to metro station. Given some of the dodgy areas in Marseille it was a relief to find this apartment in one of the better areas of the city.

    it is okay for one night, but nothing to remember Hotel is located not far from the Metro station (2 stations until downtown), overall convenient location, however the rooms are designed for rather families with small children, a bit worn-out furniture, overall not very impressive

    I wasn't impressed with the size of the room or the cleanliness - the bedding and walls were stained and the sheets were turned every day instead of changed - but the hotel was nice overall and I had a comfortable stay. The staff were very friendly, the amenities were perfect. It was about a half hour walk to the beach, and an easy metro ride to the town.

    Citea Marseille small room but quite comfortable. nice location and a lovely [extra payment] breakfast. Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks unless you are driving take the metro because the hotel is right at the Perier station.
