Lonely Planet "Definitely far from grand, this place is nonetheless perfectly acceptable for the price, with clean rooms and small but modern bathrooms."

Try to avoid the run-down 1st floor rooms, which are sorely in need of a splash of paint, especially in the bathrooms.

Frommer's "This welcoming four-star hotel, located directly beside the harbor, pays homage to the 1950s in its space-age design, yet it feels completely modern." Full review
Star Service "This homegrown gem is a good fit for frugal midrange travelers (this is definitely not a budget bunk) in search of something small and sweet." Full review
Fodor's "The flat glass-and-concrete facade of this postwar structure grants all the rooms here broad picture-window views of the Vieux Port all the way to Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde." Full review

"Facing the Old Port, a suite at La Residence hovers around the same price as a basic room at the five-star hotel down the street, but the view across the harbor makes the higher price worth it." Full review
The Telegraph9.0
"Right on the Vieux Port in Marseille, this three-star hotel is popular with business and pleasure seekers, plus young families tempted by the free baby beds." Full review
Jetsetter "A revamped 1950s landmark that overlooks Marseille's picturesque port, with breakfast and a suite option." Full review
Lonely Planet "This portside hotel scores big on interior design and views. Its rooms are self-consciously retro – think bold primary colours, art in the styles of Miró and Mondrian, ’50s-style furniture" Full review
Michelin Guide "This hotel’s name says at least half of what’s important about it, covering both the cozy residential feel and the location itself, which provides the bedrooms a stunning front-row view of Marseille’s picturesque, fortified old port" Full review
