We loved our time spent at Hotel Peron and plan to stay there any time we return to Marseilles…read more It's an older place, but we prefer that sort of charming atmosphere over the sterility of today's hotels.
In Hotel Peron we felt the essence of Marseilles with all its history and time-worn beauty. The room in which we stayed was clean, comfortable and well stocked with patterned parquet floors and a delightfully quirky bathroom, the staff was very helpful and kind (we were happy they spoke better English than our terrible French), and the view from our 2nd floor corner room was SPECTACULAR - directly out to the sea!
Honestly, we've no complaint to make at all, only high recommendations to anyone visiting lovely Marseilles who wants to feel as if they're actually THERE.
Room Tip: Ask for a corner room from the second floor up. If none are available, any facing the sea will look right out to the blue water."
