    The hotel is beautiful - very modern and funky design. Fantastic seawater pool with spectacular Seaview's. We had a premium Seaview room which had a lovely balcony. The location is great - right on the Corniche and a bus stop to the city right outside the door. No 83. Takes about 15/20 mins into the city. 5 mins walk in the other direction are some fabulous public beaches in the Pharo area and lots of food options. Very restful after a day in the city buzz and great for walking along the Corniche.

    Excellent position in heart of Marseille. All the staff were very friendly and helpful.Very good selection for breakfast. Beautiful home baked cakes. Very friendly & efficient staff. Very busy in small self service area so an in & out system might help. Our suite was excellent & roomy. Expected water to be replaced! Although we were at the front with a great view over the harbour which was very noisy the double glazing was excellent, and we slept very well. Loved the interior design. Stylish.
