Loud music vibrates through the bed head wall for hours from the next door hotel. Room 205. Advertised as “all rooms have air conditioning” but the switch on the wall is not connected. Room temperature was about 12 degrees.

Excellent place in Vieux Port
Great location, with everything you need at your doorstep. Port and metro just steps away. The hotel is modern, clean and staff incredibly friendly and helpful. Thoroughly recommend a stay here.

Bad Management-Very Disorganized Staff The staff is not well trained when it comes to recording if you made a reservation for breakfast or not. When you reserve the day before, they forget that you did and embarrass you in front of people asking you repeatedly if you did make a reservation. Fatima, the lady at the breakfast buffet, is extremely rude and condescending. They expect you to have breakfast everyday in their facility and will try to charge you even when you never made a reservation. It is much more pleasant to have breakfast at a café outside of the hotel than in their boring room on the first floor. They lack honesty and integrity. Very bad management. I have never experienced such lack of professionalism.

I booked this hotel based on its location and air conditioning, but to my disappointment, it turned out that the hotel did not have air conditioning. Instead, they had a central fan system. The most frustrating part was that the staff insisted that they did have air conditioning. When we arrived, the receptionist informed us that they were undergoing maintenance on the air conditioning system, which explained why it wasn't working. Our room was located on the top floor, and we could see the maintenance work being carried out. To summarize, this property did not have a functional air conditioning system. We contacted Expedia, and they attempted to move us to another room. Unfortunately, the hotel was fully booked, and our room was specifically designed for three people, which limited our options, as such rooms are not widely available in most hotels in France. The worst part was that I had booked a five-night stay during June, which is summer time with high temperatures. The next day, the hotel's solution was to provide us with three fans, one for each person. We decided to endure the discomfort and left the hotel early in the morning, only returning late at night. Although the management was understanding, their only resolution was to provide us with fans. If you plan to stay at this hotel, I would strongly advise against visiting during the summer months. Otherwise, this experience turned out to be a nightmare due to the lack of air conditioning.

We reserved the 'superior' room thinking that it was better than a regular room. The room had almost no natural light with a view of the back of the other building. Not nice. The mattress protector did not fit the bed and kept on coming off. The bottles in the shower of gel and shampoo were empty and lastly the glasses that they left for you to use were plastic and dirty.

Being at the heart of Vieux Port, this hotel provides excellent access to public transportation. The metro is right at the corner. Need a taxi? They call and the cab would come within 5min. Sight-seeing bus, train, and boats are 5-minute walk away, too. The hotel is very clean with a modern feel. Staff are attentive and helpful. Yet the rates are reasonable. It’s an excellent choice (I cannot say the same things about the one I’m staying at right now in Nice). I’d definitely be back!

Excellent Marseille hotel
I stayed in the Vieux Carré Hôtel in May, 2023. Paid 104 € per night. I stayed four nights. Hotel was very clean, very nice. And you couldn’t hope for a better location. I came to Marseille a few days before boarding a cruise. I would be very happy to stay here again.

This is a great little hotel. The location is superb, close to most of the tourist sites, only 15 min walk from the train station. Breakfast buffet was wonderful: fresh juice, scrambled eggs, French bread, cheese, ham, fresh fruit, yogurt, chocolate croissants, and coffee, of course . . . The room was smaller than in most American hotels; travelers wanting a lot of space in their room to hang out should stay somewhere else. There was a very small desk & chair with an electric kettle, a small bedside table, and a queen-size bed. The bathroom had shower only, no tub. I got a room with a balcony, and you can see the old port. I suspect that rooms without a balcony do not have a view (unless you hang out the window and look sideways). The staff were very helpful.
