Not worth it
This hotel has definitely seen better days. The towels all had holes, the stairs are so slanted we were afraid they would collapse, the whole room stank of sewage or sulfur so badly that it was hard to sleep. Plus the breakfast is limited and barely edible. The location is great, but it certainly wasn’t worth the price or the discomfort.

Excellent location, walking distance too lots of beautiful sites and excellent restaurants. The area may be busy for some, for me it was part of the appeal…. No car park, but several in the area and a short walk away. I would definitely stay here again

Great location. Nice breakfast. Comfortable room. We were on the fifth floor with a beautiful view of Notre Dame de la Garde and the Vieux Port. Only draw back was the noise from the staff closet door next to us. They started opening and closing it early to prepare for breakfast.

Good location, fairly basic accommodation
Fine for a short stay. In the heart of the Old Port, close to bars and restaurants. Negatives were the sewage smell from the bathroom overnight and no kettle for tea/coffee.

The Oceania in Marseille is exceptionally well located. Right on the Old Port. It is an old building with beautiful stairwells and architecture outside of the room, but the actual room is nicely updated and fairly large for Europe. Immediately outside of the hotel was a bar where we could sit and sip drinks and watch the fascinating world of Marseille walk by until late in the evening. My husband who is allergic to mold and dustmites was very comfortable in the room. We even had a quaint little balcony with a side view of the port. The breakfast was lovely. The staff was also very kind about letting us leave our luggage after checking out. I would certainly recommend this place, and hope to stay there if I have the opportunity to visit Marseille again.

Room was immaculate and a good size. No amenities in room but tea kettle and coffee stuff. No iron. No mini fridge. When I asked for ice reception told me to go to the bar on the corner!!! A real sleazy bar out front. Unsavory characters there. So no place to sit outside. No roof area. No place in hotel. When I asked about a fridge I was told to use a group fridge on second floor shared by all guests. There was no view of harbor unless you stood sideways on tiny balcony and looked left! There are zero facilities at hotel. 2 chairs in teeny lobby. Zilch. We arrived at 11. Were told room not ready until 3. No place to wait!! But they took luggage and put valuables in safe. Checkout: I asked for late. Of course answer was NO! That it was 50 euros an hour after 12 pm!!! Then there was construction drilling at 8 am right bellows at metro. A ripoff at 450 euros. I am not happy

In the heart of the old port, it was so easy for me to get anywhere and everywhere in the city! Hotel staff is super nice and they speak English! There is also a breakfast option, which I thought was lovely! If you are getting an Uber/car here know it’s on a pedestrian only street, so you’ll need to walk a little! It was lovely and clean and I would stay here again !
