Kyriad Marseille Blancarde - Timone
3.8/550 Reviews

Kyriad Marseille Blancarde - Timone

Marseille|1.06km from Musée des Beaux-Arts, Marseille
M****ille is a fantastic destination for a short city-trip as it provides sea, mega-city and food experiences at its‘s best. This underestimated city actually competes in the same league as much more prominent sea metropolises like Barcelona or Venice. So we took some time in preparation where to stay best as the distances are quite far due to the size of M****ille. In this aspect Kyriad Blancarde might not be the best option but we really enjoyed walking more than 20k steps everyday. Distances by foot are: Palais Longchamps – 30 minutes Old Harbour/ Mucem – 45 minutes Vallon des Auffes – 60 minutes Panier – 60 minutes Cours Julien – 30 minutes We also rented E bikes to cycle to the Calanques which took approx 90 minutes from Kyriad Blancarde. This being said, the hotel cost/ value can be considered as really fair. We only paid something like 100 Eurs per night. So you have to consider yourself if the distances are acceptable for you or not. Perfect location to explore the city based on our experience would be some hotel at the beginning of the Corniche behind the old port. However the Kyriad Blancard is a hidden gem as it provides a nice courtyard with lovely swimming pool, a nice rooftop terrace and even a gymn, which we would not expect from a hotel for this price/ category. The furniture and style looked really cool and we enjoyed a dip in the pool after our long city walks. The room was more or less functional besides the bath which was a bit disappointing not style but practical wise. The shower itself seemed a bit too big in comparison to the rest of the bathroom. My wife and I are quite tall and it really takes some acrobatic moves to finally sit down on the toilet as it is squeezed in behind the oversized shower. Once you sit there you are confronted with a boling heater where you can easily hit your head once finished your business. As usual in most European hotels the bathroom is far too dark if your lady wants to prepare herself make-up wise. The last critic, is the street noise if you open the window, which makes it basically impossible to sleep with fresh air. So enough criticism and as outlined above, Kyriad Blancarde is a good choice for a M****ille city-trip if you are willing to accept the described constraints (distances, bathroom and street noise). However M****ille is a lovely city and we really enjoyed staying in Kyriad Blancarde as our basis.

Toyoko Inn Marseille Saint Charles
4.4/569 Reviews
Although our stay was fine, we had a very bad experience. My brother-in-law forgot his tablet in his room. He had left it on the floor near the wall and in the morning upon drawing the curtains open the tablet was hidden behind so he didn't see it. Arriving in our next hotel destination (Villeneuve-Loubet) he realized the tablet was left in Toyoko-Inn. He immediately called the hotel and the security guy told him no tablet was found. He went to personally check the room that happened to be empty as no guest was in that room that night. He then told my brother-in-law he didn't find anything. We called the hotel again the following day and we got the same answer. We sent an e-mail to the hotel manager only to get the same answer. Since there was no other guest in that room it seems that only people from the hotel entered it. We can not believe a tablet can vanish without a human intervention so we suspect that somebody from the hotel found it but didn't deliver it to the reception. This matter ruined the remaining days of our vacation and left a bitter taste in our mouths. I sent a complaint to the Tourism Office in M****illes but they couldn't answer me as they are on public holidays! So, if you stay in that hotel double and triple check your room before you leave because if something valuable is forgotten it's more than certain it won't be recovered or compensated.
Ibis Budget Marseille Timone

Great Staff! Perfect for a couple in this amazing old city! They helped us in everything we needed! We recommend to use the metro to visit the vieux port area, its outrageous! Go to calanques, Frioul and If, you are going to love it! Dont get the city pass, its better buying single tickets. We love this magical city 👏
Hotel Mercure Marseille Canebiere Vieux-Port
4.1/552 Reviews
Vieux Port - La Canebière
Had my second stay here, this time in a lovely top floor room with views out across the city towards Notre Dame. Huge LG TV, lovely Nuxe toiletries, monsoon shower, and excellent housekeeping - everything spotless. Good North-African themed tapas in the hotel restaurant, and the guy in charge there was particularly helpful/friendly, recommending which bits of the city had good street art when I mentioned that was one of the main reasons I came to M****ille (Cours Julien fyi, which also has some fab cafes and vintage shops). My only gripe was the handling of the bill (as follows). My debit card was pre-authorised on arrival (and in excess of the actual cost of the room, but I assumed this to be an additional security deposit or similar, do didn't really feel too concerned at the time). When it came to checkout, it was agreed that we would let the pre-authorised amount stand, and I would be refunded the difference between that and the actual, final bill. However, when I checked my bank balance 3 days later I was shocked to find that I'd been billed for the full amount again, and the pre-authorised amount had not been released - so essentially I'd been charged twice (or twice and a bit, when you allow for the fact the first billing was an over-estimate anyway). This follows on from a cancelled pre-paid booking the previous year (due to Covid restrictions) that was supposed to be fully refundable, which I also really struggled to get back (it was eventually repaid but quite belatedly). So, I'm not saying don't stay here, because it is a really nice hotel in a very vibrant area (lots of cafes with fab Oriental pastries, markets etc) but you will really need to be on top of the financial side of things to ensure you aren't left out of pocket.

Vieux Port - La Canebière
We visited here in July for the Grand Prix so we just needed a base for 2 adults. This place had 24hr check in and was a 10min walk to the train station so it ticked those boxes! There is security on the door at night as the hotel is in a rough part of town but within a 5min walk, you are close to the Port which is gorgeous so it's a good location for exploring. The room was large and cool with a balcony, there was a definite smell from the drains so if you're sensitive to smells then it might not be the one for you but the kitchenette is large and well stocked with a Nespresso so that was nice. They provide a breakfast board for 9 euros which covered all the bases and the staff was friendly and helpful. The beds were comfy and you get a balcony (it overlooks some apartments but it's nice to have somewhere to hang wet towels etc). I'd recommend staying here if you're looking for a base to eat/sleep. It's not luxury but it had everything we needed for a short stay in 38c heat!
Crowne Plaza Marseille le Dome, an IHG Hotel
4.3/556 Reviews
My partner and I are staying in this hotel tonight (17Sep) The good. New hotel, feels clean and fresh. Nice airy lobby / reception area. Small pool but clean and inviting. Really friendly staff, I’ve asked for slippers and bucket of ice, delivered to our room within minutes with a smile. Thank you🌸 Underground car park, very convenient, but expensive. Bad: Our room ( no 814) has a very strange layout. The bathroom is “split” in half. Toilet is located separately by the door and the other “part of the bathroom” sink and shower is located on the other side of the room. Separate toilet has NO sink, so every time we use toilet we have to walk to the other side of the room to wash hands - unpractical, illogical and dead annoying. Very limited room service menu, very few dishes, no wine, no champi. The area - really dirty, rubbish on the street, noise from nearby apartment blocks. All in all - okay’ish for 1-2 nights not longer.
Holiday Inn Express Marseille - Saint Charles
4.4/567 Reviews
Great location if you arrive at St Charles station! There’s also a direct link to M****ille’s two metro lines which is very convenient if you need to get around the city quickly. The hotel is within a walking distance from the port which is a famous tourist area. The front desk staff are really friendly and their smiles are super welcoming. The breakfast is absolutely sufficient for a morning start! If I have to go to M****ille again, I’ll definitely stay there again!!
