Stylish and swish. One side has a great view of the vieux port. Floors 2 and 3 have terraces with lounge chairs and bathrooms with both showers and bath. Some higher-floor rooms have giant showers but no bath. Others have a shower IN the bath. The pool is accessed through the 2nd floor back door and shared with Novotel. It... More

We stayed here for one night post cruise and thanks to Trip Advisor we took the hint about booking a room with a view. When booking we asked for a high floor. Our room was allocated on the 6th floor, but we were offered an upgrade to a room with a balcony on the 1st floor. We chose the former,... More

The Sofitel Marseille is a 5 star hotel with some extremely rude staff. I went to dinner with my wife and we were talking about Frances, but we were treated in the restaurant by a extremely coarse and seemed that was in doing a favor to meet. A hotel of this level requires adequately train their employees. That search and... More

We so enjoyed our three night stay at the Sofitel. All the staff were very helpful and pleasant, even with our inability to speak or understand more than basic French phrases. They cheerfully answered yes when asked if they spoke English. Our Harbor View room was exquisite as it had a view of the entire Port! The queen size bed... More
