Hotel Marseille Centre Bompard La Corniche

The moment I walked into the hotel and reception area, I felt welcomed, and felt calm and at ease. Check-in was smooth and the lady was friendly and polite. They give you a map of the 7th area and beyond and explain about local attractions and buses etc - very nice touch. My room was wonderful: clean, spacious, well-designed with plenty of air flow due to two sliding doors. A muslin curtain plus the main heavy blue outer one to use at night. Although I kept the door slighty open during the night for air and the muslin curtain was useful to keep any bugs out! The bathroom was also very clean, and everything was in working order. Nuxe products were available, from shampoo, conditioner and body lotion (the honey smell was divine and will stay in my memory). This touch made my stay feel a little luxurious, but not OTT. Bed was a great size, super compfy and duvet was the ideal tog for this time of year. Bedding was once again spotless and clean. Plenty of lighting is in the room from bedside lights (X2 each side), a floor and a desk lamp. TV was a good size although I used my laptop most of the time. Large wardrobe with more than enough space, and I had a mini-fridge in my room. Perfect for my water, juice, fromage and yoghurts! There is a Nespresso coffee machine there for caffeine lovers. The breakfast was excellent and there was a wide range of foods: scrambled eggs with bacon and sausages, to tasty yogurts, fresh salami and hams, to cereals, pastries and fresh and dried fruits. I honestly could not fault this delightful hidden gem, and I will certainly be back. Must book soon! Thank you to each and every staff member, for making me feel more than welcomed :)

Nothing!

Breakfast was very nice, if a bit expensive. But the ease and amount of options made it worth it. The staff was very friendly and helpful in resolving any issues we had.

The room we originally booked (sea view) was quite noisy. Coincidentally it was adjacent to a cleaner's storage closet, and the walls are not very soundproof. Additionally it was too warm not to have the window open but since it was above a street this caused much noise. However, the staff were very friendly and open and we were able to change to a garden-view room which helped a lot. Thanks!

I chose the hotel primarily due to the proximity to the Le Petit Nice restaurant where we were about to have dinner that night. The plan worked out, as the hotel is just an easy 10 minutes’ walk to the said restaurant. However, the hotel has much more to offer. The property is a compound of several buildings with rooms in different categories. The central space is a neat garden and a terrace with shady spots to relax and beat off some of the summer heat. Same goes for the pool that is conveniently located in the back part of the property, so the noises of kids playing don’t disturb the quaintness of the place. The room felt very new and quite stylish and came with all amenities expected, including a mini bar for keeping cool a bottle of wine. Overall, the place felt nice, relaxed and had a very positive vibe to it.

The staff is not homogeneous, some are really great at attending and in a good mood, like at the breakfast room, the cleaning lady or Halima at the reception.

The others, clearly caring less. Some are just bothered by you not knowing where the parking is or the neighborhood..

I love this hotel, his location and garden.

The room had twin beds. They were minimum sizes and were too small for adults. I was concerned about falling off my bed in the middle of the night. Hopefully the hotel will consider the next size up.

Very quiet in a convenient location for the beach and the center using electric scooter which are available in the entire city. The room was nice although a bit small if you need to work .

Some noise from the pool pump and the restaurant was closed for refurbishing

While the general structure and amenities are old and suffering, renovations are underway. All key amenities such as the pool, are very well maintained and clean.

The restaurant is not operating at night due to reconstruction of the hotel generally. But if you can put up with UberEats or similar, the evenings are peaceful and relaxing. Drinks are still served on the afternoon and evening.

The room was beautiful, very comfortable and cosy. The room was very very clean!

Too bad, a few hairs were still in the drain of the bath tubs, and came out when we filled up the bath. Small detail.

I liked it all

Very quiet neighbourhood, beautiful garden, idyllic and peacful. Service was bit slow though very professional and everybody speaks english!

small room for the price
