We were concerned about our booking here having read some adverse reviews. All our fears were unfounded. The reception staff were friendly and multi-lingual. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. One of us was ill while we were there and so we returned to our room early one day. Although our room hadn't been serviced, the chambermaids worked speedily... More

3 days I spent in Marseille. I’ve chosen the New Hotel Select, which is located in the centre of Marseille, a 10-minute walk from the Old Port. It offered me soundproofed accommodation, an interior garden and free Wi-Fi in public areas. Besides Saint-Charles Train Station and Metro (lines 1 and 2) are 500 metres from New Hotel Select - Gare... More

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND BOOKING THIS HOTEL. I received a confirmed booking on October 1st for a night on the 19th. On the 16th I received a welcoming e-mail. We arrived soon after noon on the 19th and were told the hotel was full and they had reserved us a room at another hotel. Since this was five times the... More

Once I saw some of the comments previous visitors had left, I was quite concerned as it has definitely had some very tough reviews... It is clear that this hotel has... More

NIGHTMARE experience! Dark, dingy room on the 3rd floor, DIFFERENT to the room with bed bugs mentioned in an earlier review by another guest. Noticed excess of 10 insects in the room but didn't recognise them as bed bugs. Put those that I could see in the bathroom out of the way of me. Should have left the room there... More

It’s only a 2 min walk from Marseilles Central Railway Station and about 10 mins walk to the old port, where you will find eateries and shopping. The staff were very helpful and showed us where...

The ROBBERY in the room occurred! On the last day of our stay (30 april) we returned to our room and noticed that our travel bag that stayed in the room was inspected. When we looked closer we noticed that all our electronic devices (laptop etc) remained in the bag however displaced from their usual place. Then we found out... More

Falls down in too many aspects to be anything other than poor. Not all bad - the man who welcomed me on reception was nice, and the building is old and interesting and I liked the way they had done the rooms and the breakfast space out - quite funky. And of course it is cheap. BUT so many things... More
