Located in the centre of Marseille, Hôtel Marsiho by HappyCulture - ex Best Western Marseille offers 51 rooms with modern décor and free WiFi. With a 24-hour reception, it is just a 5-minute walk from the Old Port of Marseille.

The hotel was cute, the room was very quiet despite being in a busy, central spot, and air conditioned, and was in an excellent location. The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful, and we were able to store our luggage for the day after we checked out. There were cute decor touches and it was great to have a separate kids room.

    We needed a stop off close to the station as we were getting in late at night and the hotel was perfect. Our room was cleverly designed, so our son could close some sliding doors to make his own bedroom within ours. The staff were very nice and the hotel is stylish. Late check out as standard was fantastic, and it felt more like a 4 star hotel.
