ibis Marseille Centre Gare Saint-Charles

Location was very convenient, right next to Gare Saint Charles making my day trips by train from Marseille a snap. Wifi was super fast and dependable. The breakfast was extensive and plentiful and refiled promptly. I had a vey unique and delicious hamburger at the restaurant one evening. The bed was comfortable and the airconditioning worked well. The digital television was large and had amazing picture. The room was very quiet for such a large and busy hotel.

The room could have been made better by addition of a small minibar type of refrigerator. I did not like the rats scurrying around under my feet during dinner on the outside patio, I had to move inside to eat. But this is Marseille after all and it is not the hotel's fault.

Fantastic location if traveling by train especially arriving late at night. Third time I've stayed here, always clean room, bedding, towels. Comfortable bed good shower. First time I've had breakfast which was great, lots of choice fresh bread, cheese, eggs, cereal, pastries, pancakes, drinks. As it's a buffet breakfast you can have a big breakfast to set yourself up for the day. I found all the staff really friendly and a special thanks to the receptionist who let us stay a bit longer in our room past midday whilst we waited for our train. It's possible to walk to Marseille port from the hotel and a taxi back was 8 Euros.
