I chose this hotel for the closeness to the train station. However, our stay was not good. I paid for a room with a balcony which they did not provide. I was told there was an issue with the booking they would move me to the correct room the next day and adjust the price (I prepaid the room). We were moved the next day to a room with a balcony, unfortunately there was no hot water. There were no other rooms of the type we paid for available. We left the next day with a promise from the front desk that we would be compensated in points as we had prepaid. We have yet to receive anything.

The property was conveniently proximal to the train station. We stayed over night to catch an early train. The area surrounding the train station is not super safe, so I would recommend staying elsewhere if you are staying for any length of time. If you’re just grabbing a train and done plan on going outside, then this is a fine choice for the price. In terms of cleanliness, there was some stains on the carpet, didn’t investigate too closely but the color was brown. The water never got hot in the shower.

Right across the street to gare St Charles if travelling by rail. Very convenient. 20 minute walk to old port and nice restaurants. Staff very helpful and pleasant. Convenient luggage storage before check in and after check out. Breakfast was very good with the right amount of options. Area around hotel appears unsafe in the evening. We know in advance marseille had crime and social issues. Internet and tv didn’t work one night which made things difficult when you feel confined to your room. Overall a wonderful 4day visit.

Good hotel across from train station
Modern, clean, comfortable hotel. Breakfast was okay, but slightly substandard in variety and quality. The location is excellent. The airport bus goes to the train station, and the hotel is right across from the train station. If you are a good walker, it is a comfortable walk (maybe 15-20 minutes) to the old harbor area and museums. The train station is on a steep hill, so if that is a problem for you, then stay down by the harbor instead where the ground is more flat.
