Top 1st Arrondissement Hotel Reviews

Hôtel Carré Vieux Port

10/10 Excellent

"C’est beau accueillant et personnel très gentil"

InterContinental Marseille - Hotel Dieu by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This is more than a hotel, it is a beautiful historical building in the heart of Marseille, adjacent to the "Panier", the oldest neighborhood of Marseille, and just a short walk from the "Vieux Port" and all its vibrant life. The hotel was a hospital, beautifully remodeled into a true 5 star gem. The rooms are modern and comfortable, the terrasse has superb views of the harbor, that's where the breakfast buffet is served. There is a spa, a gym (although the equipment could be better in this huge space), but everything is super classy and well kept, with elegance and refinement. A true good recommendation, wether you travel solo for business, or with family for leisure, this hotel fits all demands."

Hotel Marseille Centre Gare Saint-Charles by Accor

8/10 Good

"The hotel has a good location being very close to the station. It was an interesting walk into town but Marseilles has some different sights and smells. The lift kept breaking down and we were never sure when we would have to use the stairs to the seventh floor. The hotel had a good air conditioning system and was quiet."

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."
