Hôtel LIFE Marseille VP Vieux-Port
Good location in the Vieux Port. Great views of the harbour- can be noisy due to entertainment there. Staff not that friendly, rooms clean, breakfast ok. No decaffeinated coffee available but close to cafes. Great market on Sundays.

This is a wonderfully central place to stay with welcoming and helpful staff. The room was a bit shabby but for the price it was a real bargain.
