Our stay was lovely. The rooms were clean and the staff was really nice and helpful! We only stayed one night and the front desk staff was more than happy to keep our luggage while we explored Marseille. I would stay at the Marseille Novotel again.
The rooms were nice however needing an upgrade. The breakfast buffet was nice and had alot of choices where you didn't feel like you had the same thing every day. Great location as well.
Excellent service from room service and the servers. Armin and Mustafa were amazing servers. Thank you all for making us feel comfortable in your hotel.
The location is excellent. The outdoor section has a superb view. It is close to nice walking places. The rooms are clean and quiet.
The only problem was slow Internet. I was not part of the Accor network, which wld have permitted me to use free fast-speed internet. I had to use regular free guest access, and it was spotty and slow.
Great location between the Old Port and the coastal area along, with great views of the port and fort etc, and walking distance to everywhere. Great modern facilities with lovely outside bar terrace, pool, attractive foyer area etc. Staff were all so friendly, on the desk, at the bar, cleaning staff. Had standard room, was just fine although not great view - would go for the deluxe port view next time, and there will be a next time.
Hotel had the best location.
BUT…. The Staff,EXCEPT Solange, who was very kind and helpfull, needs training to be more helpful to guests.
Also, the hotel needs an URGENT remodeling/refurnish of the bathrooms. DISGUSTING! Mold all Over it!
Can’t understand how come a hotel chain as Novotel allows the hotel operador function with áreas in such a poor condition.
The lamp bulb on the desk was “intermitent”. Fixed but not for long.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Big rooms, excellent reception team, spoke multiple languages really well, friendly too. Hotel pool is good and on the decking really does over look the entry, exit of vieux port, so you can watch the boats come and go. Excellent location, walking distance from vieux port and Catalan beach, which although small is an oasis for the city.
Cool city. Easy to do boat trips to calanque and easy to get to main train station for trips to aix en provence and Avignon.
Marseille really is special, it's worth spending the time to get into it.
