Maisons du Monde Hôtel & Suites - Marseille Vieux Port

Maisons du Monde Hôtel & Suites - Marseille Vieux Port

8/10 Good
"Great central location within walking distance of many restaurants, shops, and attractions, making it a very convenient base for exploring Marseille. The staff were friendly and provided great service throughout our stay. A few things to be aware of: because of the central location, it can be quite noisy, especially at night. If you’re driving, there’s no onsite parking or designated drop-off area, so unloading luggage can be stressful on the busy streets. Also, while the hotel offers luggage storage, our bags were left in the dining room in plain view rather than in a secure storage area."
