Golden Tulip Marseille Euromed
The only thing is that they say they have parking, and it doesn't belong to them. It belongs to a third party and you have to pay about 20 euros per day plus tax and walk about a block with your suitcaises to the hotel. But the hotel is very beautiful and modern and has excellent service.
