The direction from the train station could have been better. The fact that the TV was all in French. The breakfast was more expensive than advertised. The location of the hotel in relation to the area was perfect. I could walk to everything in just a few minutes. However the stay was very enjoyable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Central to town, 2* hotel beware of muggers and pick-pocketers as they are not afraid of the crowd and will single you out once they have the target in sight

Not 'New'. Certainly not 'Select'. An absolute disgrace. Unhelpful staff. Grotty room and no facilities. Could barely get the luggage in the tiny lift. Breakfast was ok-ish. Not worth the money.

Convenient for train station I arrived very late (12.30am) and there was no problem checking in. The area is a bit dodgy at night but the location is quite convenient if you want to catch a train. The room was big enough but everything in it needs refurbishing: old everything (carpet, wallpaper, bathroom, furniture)... Not a fantastic experience altogether.

Central Location This hotel was only 200m from the main station, and a short walk to the main port. The hotel had a central location which made sightseeing marseille very easy. The only down side of the location on a miain street was it could be noisy at times, but overall i enjoyed my stay

Recommended for good service Overall the hotel was not too bad, but not outstanding. However we had a very possitive experience with the staff there who helped us out with missing luggage. Good location, within walking distance to the train station which makes things a lot easier when you have luggage.
