Near a hospital very noisy at times. Average breakfast - Expedia charged €15 it’s only €8.50 at the hotel?

The rooms are great; however, they sometimes had high humidity which resulted in an odd smell.

It is local to a metro station so very easy access to the centre. The room was clean the staff were very helpful and welcoming. I'd happily stay again. Only negative is the shower is completely open with no door so the bathroom can get quite wet, maybe a rubber grill or something to help as the mat made little difference

Above expectation
The hotel room was really comfy with strong A/C in the summer. Staffs at the counter were always friendly and nice. Just a 5-min walk to the subway station which takes you to all major attractions. There’s also a supermarket near the subway entrance. The only thing wasn’t so good was the bathroom: the edges of the sink was molded/ found a mysterious brown stain on a new roll of toilet paper when I first entered the room...hummm.

Stop off
It always helps to have a friendly welcome and a receptionist with a sense of humour. From the moment I was served the lady could not have been more helpful. At breakfast she remembered me and talked through everything and also asked if we needed anything else even though it's a self service breakfast. Then wished us a safe journey before we left.lovely lady.

It was not so pricy, convenient to the centre of marseille if you are driving. But neighbouhood is not the most peaceful.

Great room although charged twice.
Room was just fine, wifi performed well. Car park is only for small cars as you have to drive your car into a lift, if you have a larger car you will have to park your it 200 yards down the road at the other Ibis hotel. Worst part of the stay was the receptionist forcing us to pay for the room again when we checked out. We had already paid through hotels.com. It took a lot of hastle and a phone call from a manager at another ibis to sort the problem - we had to supply proof of payment, 2nd payment etc. Not had the same problems at any other ibis.

noisiest hotel ever
though this hotel is otherwise okay, I have never stayed anywhere so noisy. We spent 5 nights there in February. It is situated at a busy junction and the pavements separating the hotel from the road are so narrow that you could lean out of the window and touch the lorries that pass regularly. Apart from this Marseilles main hospital is about 100 yards away ..... and just across the road from a fire station. The sound of sirens is therefore something that happens very regularly. And apart from this, on one side of the hotel is a major building site which will continue for some months yet. On the saturday the JCB started up at 6 am and lorry's loaded with sand arrived every 5 minutes.

The room is small
Basic hotel and the room is very small. The breakfast is included in the room charge and is ok. You have to park at another Ibis hotel, 100M away, if you are driving a BMW 3 series, like us. The garage is very small as well.

Nice pleasant hotel
The room was nice as well the breakfast buffet provided. However during our stay there we had no WIFI for the entire time which was really disappointing. Other than that the location is a bit far away from the centre however we had hired a car so were fine.

Hotel all seasons Marseille Timone
Great hotel, metro ride to vieux port, 5 min walk if even to metro, 4 stops away to vieux port- the main tourist spot in marseille. Free wifi and breakfast, rooms were clean and nice. Would recommend, for the price you cant ask for anything more.

All Seasons Timone
The All Seasons Timone is well located, less than 5 minutes walk from the metro system and it takes less than 10 minutes to get to Marseille Vieux Port (the old town). There is also a taxi rank right opposite the hotel as well as some shops. The hotel is brand new, so very clean. However I found the bed to be a bit hard. Small bathroom, but well appointed (walk in shower). What I like is breakfast and WIFI , tea & coffee station are all inclusive in room rate. Breakfast is a continental selection and you can squizze your own orange juice (can get fresher than this). Love it! Team members are nice too. Overall a great hotel with good transport links not far from town centre. A good base if you do not wish to pay full price when staying in Marseille.
