We had a booking for another hotel, the Montgrand and was offered a room here at the Palais instead. The lobby looked plain but OK. We got a superior double which consisted of a double bed and just a large open space in the other end of the room. No sofa, couch or anything to justify the extra space. The... More

This hotel is just a couple of minutes walk from Vieux Port and the main shopping areas of Marseille. Although it doesn't have a carpark, there is an underground carpark on the same street a block closer to the port. Our room was nicely decorated, French but still quite contemporary in style. Our bed was unfortunately two singles zipped together... More

My wife and I stayed for three of the four nights we booked online through Hostel Bookers. The place seemed reasonable at first. The bathrooms were recently renovated and the staff was nice and helpful. Marseille is kind of a hole, but it's centrally located and a good launching point to other nearby locations by train. After the first night,... More

I felt safer on vacation in Mexico City than I did when in Marseilles. It was a dumpy and gross city. I do not plan on returning. Best to consider some other beautiful areas outside of there- I highly recommend Toulon and Avignon. If you must go to Marseilles the hotel was decent enough. Bathrooms impeccably clean, rooms clean, nice... More

Where do I even begin? I booked this online, and it looked great. Learned my lesson. The only good thing about this place was its location! Where do I even begin with the problems? - The staff was very rude and not helpful at all. - They said they had high speed WIFI, not true, no internet. - Very Small... More

My girlfriend and I traveled to Marseille last summer. We were excited to stay in Marseille, as we'd heard so many good things about the region. We found the "Hotel du Palais" online and booked three nights. The booking process seemed fairly straightforward. The rooms were not cheap (119 euros a night). Upon arrival, everything went horribly wrong. The man... More

I thought the hotel was good; nothing special but served the purpose for a 2 night stay. Staff were friendly and ever so helpful. I didn't particularly like the street level where the hotel was located. In fact there was an eerie feel to the place as early as 8 pm. I thought the cost of breakfast (€8) was extraordinary... More

The hotel is centrally located which is fine for sightseeing.All rooms are advertised as for one or two adults but most have a small double bed .They are are really singles but the booking website is not clear.Not suitable for some all male groups. Staff are friendly and speak a little English which helps. More

As other reviewers have said, the Hotel du Palais is well located for local attractions and public transport. The reception staff were pleasant enough, but my ground floor room was surprisingly small, and although it was clean and comfortable enough I didn't feel tempted to spend too much time there. As others have said, noise from other rooms is an... More
