Stayed here with friends in July. The hotel is new and modern, rooms were fine but nothing special. Had two single beds, which were very narrow but relatively comfortable. Bathroom fine but shower didn't have amazing pressure. Valet parking was good, and the pool pleasant (but too hot!). Breakfast was included in my rate, but would not have been worth... more

This is a new and spacious hotel which is entirely up to its 4* rating. Location depends on what you are in Marseille for. It is built in a park overlooking a racecourse and then 200 metres away, the sea and the islands off the City. It is therefore quiet and good for the few beaches there are in the... more

We stayed one night at the Villa Massalia, to get to the hotel from Marseille we caught the No.83 bus for just €1.70 and jumped off on the corner where the Casino Super Marche is located and walked the last kilometre along the beach. Our hotel was on the 4th floor (top) overlooking the Esso garage at the rear of... more

Easy access to the ocean and family-friendly restaurants, a little longer walk to the Parc Chanot conference center. Bus access... more

We selected Villa Massalia because it was a new hotel that opened in September 2007. It was rather difficult booking the hotel from overseas because their online booking system, whilst part of it was functional, completing the payment is not possible (at least during the time I tried to book it). So arrangements had to be made through e-mail. Contacting... more
