Top 1st Arrondissement Hotel Reviews

Maisons du Monde Hôtel & Suites - Marseille Vieux Port

10/10 Excellent

"Fine hotel with helpful staff,"

Hôtel Carré Vieux Port

10/10 Excellent

"On a adoré notre séjour! Tous les employés étaient chaleureux, serviables et agréables! L’emplacement était un véritable coup de cœur, au cœur du Vieux-Port, à proximité de tout à pied! La chambre était propre et l’immeuble est sécuritaire. Excellent rapport qualité/prix! J’y retournerais sans hésiter!"

Hôtel Du Sud Vieux Port

8/10 Good

"As a solo traveller I look want a safe, friendly, comfortable, clean room and I found this little no thrills hotel ticked all those boxes. It was incredibly economical and was right in the middle of the action of the old port within walking distance of everything and connected well by public transport. Safe neighbourhood with lots of eateries, places to visit. The staff were very friendly and polite and willing to help anytime. The only negative was that breakfast was not available but to be honest there were tons of really great cafes within walking distance . The air conditioner was not the best but its central air so bring a small portable bedside fan if you wish. Room quiet at night despite busy outside. Very comfortable bed and nice separate bathroom . The wall socket did not work in my room that was the only real bummer."
