"Preferred location"
9th March 2012, Schnoerri, Schopfheim
Been here for the third time, always on business. We had scheduled business meetings here and we stayed also just overnight. The location is just outstanding, guess you can´t find anything better in Marseille. Overlooking the old port and in walking distance to downtown and all the nice places and restaurants. Staff is always extremely helpful, gives you always a warm welcome. Restaurant at the top is really high quality and the menu is typical french/european. Meeting venues are pretty good, although you have to check on your needs and confirm everything is available. If not readily available, staff will organize shortly. Rooms are excellent, clean, cosy and make you feel really comfortable. I am staying about 160+ days a year in hotels and always try to escape any hotel room while being there, but these rooms are really nice, although, they could be a little bigger.Its quite an expensive place, but definitely worth the money. Always recommend it.
"Short stay in Marseille"

The hotel has a distinct unpleasant odor upon entrance. This smell has been there for over a year. Not a good sign. But once you are able to surpass this hurdle, you are in god hands.The best things about this hotel are:- the breakfast is excellent and the staff is very pleasant, the view from the restaurant is breathtaking- the lobby restaurant is amazing....I ate the best no pose salad ever and my wife had the best hamburger....the staff is extremely pleasant and the chef is young and of the highest quality- my wife thoroughly enjoyed the spa experienceSo in a nutshell, if you can put up with the reception and reservation aloofness and coldnes you will be in the very good hands of the rest !!!
"Nice hotel in a good location."

We stayed in the Sofitel Marseille for two nights. The hotel is a 10 minute walk from the Vieux-Port, perched on a hill overlooking the port. We chose the cheaper rooms, so we had a view over the back of the hotel rather than the scenic views of the port. The rooms themselves were very clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and eager to please. We decided not to eat breakfast in the Sofitel, and instead went next door to the Novotel where the buffet breakfast offered a good choice at a reasonable price (14.30 euros rather than 25 euros in Sofitel). The swimming pool is shared with the Novotel, and consequently was rather crowded. There are lots of interesting places to visit around the old port, and a wealth of restaurants to choose from. I would also recommend other visitors to Marseille to take the short ferry ride from the old port to the Frioul islands where there are beautiful bays to swim and dive.
"Pleasure"
29th April 2011, Chexbres
Everything was exceptional, except the time for the chexk-in and for the check-out, because only one person was available to ensure them and to answer to the numerous calls.We would like to thank the room service specially, because they made our beds a paradise when we came back from the diner. It was marvellous !
