Popular Marseille 4-star Hotels

Excellent four star hotel with good amenities in the rooms - shampoo, conditioner, soap, shower gel, body lotion plus nail file, shower cap, cotton buds, cotton wool pads and water in the mini fridge, safe in the room. Dressing gown and slippers provided. I paid extra for a slightly larger room with a view of the Old Port and it was well worth it. The Port is noisy but the double glazing is very good. The A/C in the room was good. The room and bathroom were clean and serviced daily. I thought the shower could do with an upgrade - no hotels have a hand held shower these days but it was sufficient. Also the room carpet and the main stair carpet are tired and could do with replacing but they were clean and vacuumed. The reception staff were fantastic - friendly, helpful, always pleased to see me when I came back in and interested in knowing what I’d been up to. Milolo was especially good, getting my room ready a bit earlier when I arrived on an early flight, helping with information and printing out my boarding card when I left, but they were all lovely. As a single woman traveller I felt safe and comfortable/at home in the hotel and would highly recommend it. I would definitely go back.

The environment of the facility is tidy and OK, that is, there are too few supporting travel services in the store, and little information can be obtained from the clerk's mouth ......... It is not necessary to be careful about a map.

It is with immense satisfaction and tremendous felicitation to all the managing staff at Goldentulip Euromed-M****ille. I would wish to extend my very special heartfelt thanks to Ms Celine, Ms Taina, and Mr. Saintiago. The tremendously competent lady: Ms. Celine. She is really a GTS: Géniale, Top, et Super. Ms. Taina is an always helpful lady with a special welcoming smile that makes feel more than at home. Mr. Saintiago is a man of solutions. He never tells you about the difficulties. For him, there is always a solution for the customers when a whatsoever problem happens. Thanks to you three, and to all the staff working with you, Goldentulip Euromed-M****ille has become a place for everything and everything in place. In a word: You are the best. 👍. I wrote this review after more than ten stays in this exceptional hotel to say that buildings become alive with the working staff that are managing them. I have tried three other nearby hotels, and it is a mistake to even think of comparing Goldentulip Euromed-M****ille to them. You cannot compare the incomparable!!

The street where the hotel is located is not that elegant, but not bad, but the environment near the Arc de Triomphe is really terrible. The receptionist was a gentle black gentleman. He said that there were only rooms on the first floor. At our request, we were given a room with a balcony on the second floor. However, we were not allowed to open the door to the balcony in the room. This rule was very strange and did not happen anywhere else in France. I have encountered this kind of rule, but fortunately the room facilities are good.

We booked an apartment, located on the main shopping street of the Old Port, very convenient for shopping and restaurants. The apartment is decorated in the Southern French style that I like, with a small kitchen and tableware (the tableware is also in the Southern French style~I love it) Suitable for those who want to slow down and experience the style of Marseille

I was rapt as soon as I walked into my first-floor ”deluxe room with sea view”. The decor was fab, the spaces were well-designed and practical, and the view was a delight. A nice touch was the sunhat on the bed! The location was ideal, right by the water and within walking distance of all the main sights as well as many shops and eateries. The bed was comfy, the wifi worked well and the desk space was good. The safe was a little small. I enjoyed room service breakfast and dinner, both were fresh and tasty. There were a couple of minor housekeeping issues (items not replaced) which were soon sorted by the main staff member on reception, who was also very helpful in regard to booking a taxi to the station at the end of my stay. Definitely recommended!

Location wise the hotel is just two or three minutes walk from the Colbert Metro Station or maybe 14 minutes walk from the main St Charles railway station. It is also only about five to seven minutes walk from the main tourist area down by the port. Obviously not the fault of the hotel but the street it is on it heavy with graffiti, there was smell of urine and hobos sleeping nearby. That might sound nasty, but it's just a fact. Check-in was simple and quick and the lobby is OK if you like looking at a piano covered in faux graffiti. All rather tacky and blingy looking. Bedroom was OK if you like decor in purple and vinyl light blue covered chairs in your room. No proper desk for computer use although you can use a small table and stool. Wifi connection was good. Air-conditioning worked. Bathroom acceptable although the 'open' toilet brush holder could surely be improved upon. Hairdryer provided but you can't use it in the bathroom as there is no plug point for a hair dryer. It can however be used in the hallway. Carpet was dirty. I thought at first it was maybe just our room but upon stepping out into the corridor there was dirt and dust everywhere, especially along the sides by the skirting boards. The cleaners main corridor door was often left open letting guests see inside the cleaners store room area. Breakfast was good. In fact, most of it was better than good. Comprehensive selection of breads and croissants/pastries, cheeses, hams, fruit, yoghurt, cereals, coffee machines and scrambled egg. The fallafel was also a great thing which I hadn't expected. Not so good were the burnt sausages and the very fatty/oily streaky bacon each morning. But overall, a good variety and enjoyable. Would we return? Probably not. The hotel really needs to do something to clean the carpets in the corridors properly and to get new toilet brush holders in the rooms. Very off-putting.

The location of the hotel is very good. Just next to the old port. Take a boat to Ile Ife, the dock at Calanque is right opposite. Also close to Galeries Lafayette and supermarket. Just outside the door is the subway station. It takes 2 subway stops to the train station and takes 15 minutes. But the carpets in the public areas of the hotel were extremely dirty. It seems that it has not been taken care of for a long time, and it has accumulated a thick layer of dust. Breakfast looked average. And the most annoying thing is that you can't check in early at all. I arrived around 12 o'clock, and my mother ☺️ waited stupidly in the hotel lobby until after 3 o'clock before I could check in. It is said that the owner is Jewish and only employs a small number of cleaning staff. 😤

The hotel was quiet (provided your window closes well...), But the darkening curtains were old, and see through. They really provide the minimum Accor benefits for a gold/platinum/diamond member. No way to get a welcome drink for the two occupants of the room, and no gift as a benefit. Moreover it is the only hotel in the town that does not participate in the free breakfast at weekend benefit. Please take that into account. It is not advertised anywhere and we were told that we had to check it for ourselves on Accor website. The hotel takes a lot of advantages by using the name Mercure and attracts status members but they do not take this responsibility seriously and give the benefits as they see fit. The customer is not in a position to negotiate what benefits they want, so why is it so easy for a hotel to opt out?

The location in the new business district of Marseilles, the cleanliness, free WiFi and the Novotel's spacious suites with a balcony and a view of the cruise terminal convinced us. Since we were on a road trip through France and Spain with some friends, we traveled in a van. Unfortunately, the parking garages in these countries only have a limited height, but in the parking garage of this accomodiation, which was a 5-minute walk away, it was suitable for our large vehicle, was very generous and was also discounted for hotel guests. The staff at Novotel Suites was very friendly, a bar, a gym and a restaurant with daily breakfast were among the amenities of this hotel. We didn't use the breakfast because there were very good and cozy breakfast places where you can sit outside in the surrounding area. A shopping mall and public transport connections (metro/tram) were in the immediate vicinity. The Old Harbor with a lot of seafood restaurants and a wonderful atmosphere in the evening was easy to reach in about 15 minutes on foot. We can recommend this hotel, especially for guests with a large car.
