Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
La Residence Du Vieux Port enjoys an exceptional location directly on the Vieux Port, providing easy access to Marseille's attractions and transport, including bus and metro stops. Many guests appreciate the spacious rooms, some featuring balconies with fantastic views of Notre Dame de la Garde Basilica. A highlight for many is the delicious breakfast with fresh orange juice in a bright and nicely decorated breakfast room. While some have mentioned street noise at night due to the central location, the hotel's prime position remains a major draw.

Very nice stay with lovely views!

cute team superb job harbor sights
The team was super cute and efficient. I reminded me of royalty. My Prestige Double Room Sea View was super clean. The housekeeping folks did a superb job! I really enjoyed the fine sights of the harbor right from my room, such a lovely thing.
The elevator was a tad slow. I sometimes took the stairs, no biggie!

Fantastic stay with an amazing view!

comfortable bed safe hotel great choice
The location of the hotel is great! The room had the most comfortable bed and sheets. I thought the hotel not sketchy at all and clean. I spent a wonderful night there. Breakfast had lots of choice.
The gym was very minimalist. I found this slightly disappointing, though it did not detract significantly from my stay. I wish there was more equipment.
