Fabulous location to the Old Port area...and great for catching tourist attractions. Breakfast buffet plentiful. Parking garage very close nearby.

Stayed in a triple room which was huge and clean and overlooked the harbour. The location of the hotel was perfect and the view from the room was wonderful. The morning staff were excellent and the afternoon lady was idle and uninterested. The breakfasts were good and the breakfast and cleaning staff were superb.

Good location, clean room, friendly and flexible service. If I ever come back to Marseille, will shurely choose this hotel. Breakfast is not as good as the hotel itself.

Unica nota: quando siamo arrivati ci è stato comunicato che le uniche camere rimaste erano all'ultimo piano ed erano mansardate con la finestra sul tetto, e ci è stato proposto per la sera dopo una camera al piano inferiore con balcone. Per le sere successive abbiamo quindi cambiato camera. Molto spaziose e con buona vista sulla canabiere sul vieux port e su notre dame de la garde

PERFECT location BUT pretty dirty and crusty rooms. Marseilles in general is pretty dirty we found and we're not that picky.

The staff was friendly and the lobby was clean. The rooms however were a little crusty on the edges. We had a beautiful view of the Port, but the carpets were stained badly, the furniture was well past worn, and there was a bit of crust in the bathroom. We were only there for one evening so it was fine, for the price we paid. The really nice thing was that a wonderful breakfast was available for 6 euros, but for one more euro you could get it delivered to your room - and that was well worth it! The metro station is literally outside the door and there are a ton of shops and restaurants all around the Porte. I recommend this hotel (and Marseille for that matter) for a night, but don't expect to be comfortable there for a week.

Very nice location, next to the "vieux port". Unfortunately, the elevator was out of oder and our room was on the fifth floor. The room itself was clean but a bit outmoded. It needed a good coat of white paint, new beadspreads and curtains which were dusty and very faded. Breakfast was very good and plentiful but it was 9 euros and not included.

We requested a triple room for 2 adults and a 15-year-old boy. While the room was spacious, it was on the top floor and provided no windows except for those on the ceiling. The room was clean but the bedspread and other furniture had holes in it. Compared to other properties I stayed at in Provence, it was a bit more shabby.

No easy access to hotel from car A/C didn't work properly One head of breakfast staff was not service minded

The advantage this property is location. It is right on the Vieux Port and as I was traveling with an elderly person it was fantastic for accessing many of the tours and sights. However the hotel was a little more run down than I had expected and the closest public parking was a fair walk away.

El hotel es sencillo, pero esta muy limpio. Desventajas: la altura de la bañera; para entrar y salir debes ser atlético. La playa se encuntra a 10 min. del hotel en autobus. Ventajas: La localización del hotel. Esta situado en el corazón de Marsella; esto es, justo al lado se encuentra el puerto y la zona de bares y restaurantes del puerto, además las calles colindantes son las principales calles de tiendas. Además, delante del hotel se encuentra la oficina de turismo, el metro y autobuses. Para estar en el centro, las habitaciones son silenciosas, de manera que puedes dormir bien y sin ruidos. ¡Que disfruteis del viaje!

The hotel is in a great position, right beside the old port, and the accomodation was fine but the hotel had rather a grey theme - grey rooms, a vast grey staircase.... it felt oddly oppressive.

All things considered, this is a perfectly adequate hotel with an outstanding location. Not a luxury stay, but the staff was extremely accomodating and friendly.

Stay here! The location is fantastic! The hotel is in the heart of Vieux Port and you can walk to other surrounding areas. The metro is also right across the street. There couldn't be a more central location. The hotel room was nice, good size and the bathroom was one of the biggest I've seen in France. The rooms have air conditioning and a little balcony with a partial view of the port. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. I have no complaints about the hotel or our stay.

Room was very large. Carpeting was worn & bedspreads were faded. But the location was fabulous for access to subway/train station, tourist rides (bus, tram), shopping areas, museums, restaurants, etc. The only downside to the location was city morning noises if you are a light sleeper. Breakfast was very good & the staff was very helpful & professional.

The hotel has one of the best views of surroundings that includes the port in the area. The staff was really cooperative and we had a great time in Marseille.

Difficult to find !Rooms not conducive to elaxation after a long journey.It needs to re-consider its name as view of the port was very limited.Better maps of the surrounding area and proximity to ferry port would have been useful.Breakfast was very expensive and a small cafe next door was far better

Good value for money hotel in superb location right next to the old port with subway and ATM's right outside. Rooms are comfortable with excellent air conditioning so the noise from the street can be kept out.

Hotel Mascotte, is right in the centre of town and very conveniant for eating out. The hotel staff are friendly and competant and more than happy to help. The air conditioning was effective and you need it to be in Marseille as it is very hot in summertime.

The hotel Mascotte is good value for money and excellently placed for good restaurants and the Old Port. One thing that might be worth pointing out somewhere on your web site is that at one of your other hotels (New Hotel Vieux Port) there is a sign on the desk offerring a taxi to the airport for 34€, when in fact the taxi turns up it is metered and you end up paying whatever price is on the meter. You must confirm the price of the taxi with the driver before you set off,and the driver is obliged to give it to you at that price as you've read it on the sign!
