"They room was good. Guy at the reception was very fine but the service in the bar and around the pool was awful. Waiter was grumpy, barkeeper was unfriendly and forgot to bring the drinks, basically also never came around which was bad too, the hotel could make a lot of more money if the waiter would actually go to the pool or anyway more often around"

The USB charging ports were really convenient. Overall, it was a very comfortable stay. The surrounding area is also great, with a 24-hour convenience store downstairs. It's also within walking distance to the city center and the Old Port."

Novotel Marseille Centre Gare

📍 15 Bd Maurice Bourdet, 1st arrondissement of Marseille, Marseille
★★★ 8.6 (190 reviews)

"The hotel is well situated across the street from the St Charles bus and train station. Unfortunately, the area is run down, dirty, and a little scary after sunset. Trying to find a decent place to eat within walking distance was impossible. The hotel has a beautiful lobby and wonderful breakfast, and the room on the 2nd floor was adequate, although a bit cramped. I would like to give it higher marks but the area it was in pretty much makes it hard to recommend."

"Trendy/basic hotel in modern building for young travellers. No luxuries. Cleanish… Has a lounge for hanging out and breakfast.  Great location! Tram and cycle hire parking on doorstep.  Lots of cheap restaurants and supermarket nearby. 10 minutes by bike from train station.  Not bad."

Novotel Marseille Centre Gare ★★★
"They gave me a room without AC, and insisted that’s the only room they had, but they could offer free breakfast to compensate. However, the breakfast ended before 9:55 on the second day morning even it showed 10:30on the roomkey wrap and 10am by verbal notice. The hotel is under refurbishment and will be rebranded as a Novotel I guess. They don’t care about customer service or option as they’ll operate under a new name soon."
