Hotels Near Faculty of Sciences of Luminy in Marseille

advantage: In a small shopping area, close to the subway, there is a coffee shop around where you can have breakfast. Other hotels are cheaper. There is a safer parking space on the other side of the street, but it will cost ten Euros a night. It’s not in the city center, so it’s easy to drive The price is not too expensive. shortcoming: The room is small and it is difficult to walk in a suitcase. The towels are dirty. There is no service (because it is a large chain store, it does not sell service, except for the front desk when you check in, where there is no staff) But this is understandable. Niu has seen this grade and the price is cheap here.

We just stayed here last week. Props for the bunk beds which was helpful with family travel, but overall I found the hotel to be dirty. The hallway outside our room had crumbs everywhere and didn't look like it had been vacuumed in a while. The shower in our room wasn't as clean as I'd like. A tile outside our toilet room was loose and there was random water (?) behind the toilet long after room service had been there. While the property appears to be new, it is not in great condition and not as clean as it should be.

The hotel was quiet (provided your window closes well...), But the darkening curtains were old, and see through. They really provide the minimum Accor benefits for a gold/platinum/diamond member. No way to get a welcome drink for the two occupants of the room, and no gift as a benefit. Moreover it is the only hotel in the town that does not participate in the free breakfast at weekend benefit. Please take that into account. It is not advertised anywhere and we were told that we had to check it for ourselves on Accor website. The hotel takes a lot of advantages by using the name Mercure and attracts status members but they do not take this responsibility seriously and give the benefits as they see fit. The customer is not in a position to negotiate what benefits they want, so why is it so easy for a hotel to opt out?

Stayed in this hotel in June 22. Have to admit that my first impression was student halls but we adapted well. The apartment was small but very clean. We had one bedroom but only big enough to house twin beds and a bedside table and a lamp. The beds were very comfortable. There was a separate toilet and a small bathroom with a over bath shower. I first thought that the bath was not clean but it was just here the enamel had worn away. There was a small kitchenette with cooker, fridge and dishwasher. We didn’t use it except for tea and coffee as we had B&B which was good the lady in the dining room was very friendly and was happy to help. We ate out for dinner. There is a table and chairs and a sofa bed in the living area plus a tv. The balcony was big and facing the sea which was nice with lovely views over the bay. There were patio table and chairs. If you are staying less than 8 days you won’t get room service but will provide it at an extra cost. There is a free safe deposit in all rooms. I think this is because of covid. There is free WiFi and a safety deposit box. There is no hairdryer in the rooms but you can get one from reception at no cost if you ask. Reception were ok but didn’t speak much English but we were in France after all so got by. The pool is small but nice the only thing is that there is no seating around the pool. Most people were just sitting on the decking on towels. The hotel is just 5 minutes from the beach. The only thing is that it was not Sandy but stony and gritty not good for making sand castles. There are no sun beds or parasols to hire, and very little shade. There is a Sandy beach further down the bay about 10 mins walk. There are restaurants close by but also more on the Sandy beach which is lovely. Also a good supermarket near too. You can get a bus into the city on the road next to the hotel the No 83 is €2 per person each way along the coast to the marina. I have to say that the external walls of the hotel need to be tidied up they look very tired. A lick of paint is needed badly, and maybe the rooms brought up to date a little. Maybe the hotel group could invest some funds into doing this. All in all we had a good stay but it could have been better. Thank you to all staff the made our stay comfortable.

The self-guided tour chose this accommodation, the environment is relatively clean and refreshing, the hotel apartment, someone cleaned the next day. The transportation is very convenient, 5 minutes to the subway station, you can take the subway two or three stations to the train station or the old port. The price is also relatively cost-effective.

Four girls lived together, Montpellier and Marseille set this brand of hotel. Favorite coffee here is with the complete tableware and microwave on the bar, and come back at night with dessert and have a drink. Breakfast can also be coffee with the bag that you bought back.

Nice apartments🔥❤️great staff, we were satisfied, excellent location, top notch cleanliness, I recommend 🫶

This will be a full review. First off the hotel is near a Metro station and near a “Gare” so a high speed train or metro is 5-15 minutes away by walk. The area of the hotel was fairly dirty, and classically smelled of sewers but that is just how France is sometimes. The check in process was great, they answered all our questions, were very knowledgeable and between both of them spoke very good French and English. It was explained to us that there would be no one entering our suite to clean during our stay. Alright. Not a huge issue but would have been nice. It can be done by request but I presume for a fee. (Will explain the snark later) Entering our room, it was bigger than our room was in Paris. It had a normal hotel size TV with decent channels. We had booked a double bed which was actually just two single beds. Unfortunately they didn’t even have a sheet between the mattress cover and the comforter. This is an issue because the A/C doesn’t work at all and leads to the window being open all night. There are mosquitos and we got bugged very often by them. But it was too warm in the room to close the window and the comforter was too warm to have on all the way. This led to some really poor sleeps. They do have a kitchenette which was decent but note that it only has enough plates and cutlery for 2 people. The bathroom was alright, fairly clean. They only left us 1 toilet paper roll which they again don’t come in your room to refill. They gave two towels, two face towels and a bath mat, fairly standard. It also had a great towel warmer which was a nice perk. Unfortunately we wanted new towels halfway through our stay and we’re told we had to pay extra for new towels! What the heck. That’s just BS. The shower was crap. Hot water only stayed on for a few minutes at most if you were lucky. The shower head is fine but the shower is designed in such a way, with no shower curtain just a 1/3 glass pane that water just spills all over the bathroom. You have to hold the shower head the whole time making it difficult to enjoy your shower. So we decided to wash our towels ourselves and some clothes as we are on a longer vacation. We had to buy our own soap, no problem with that. But the washing machine had a wash time of 40 minutes . We went down 40 minutes later and there was still 20 minutes on the timer. Not just that, but the clothes drier was broken and clearly had been for ages. So instead we had to drape our wet clothes across our room to dry everything. This was my first time staying at an adagio aparthotel. Had things been a little more standard and complimentary and well thought out for 200$ CAD a night, I would consider staying again but save yourself the trouble and pay a little more for a nicer place.

This hotel is in one of the worst areas of Marseille. There are homeless people in doorways and the area is run down and desolate. The hotel staff are cheerful enough but I think that even they know that they're in a dire area. The hotel itself has no bar or restaurant so you have to venture outside if you want any sustenance. Best thing to do - head directly to the old port where there is a huge array of bars and restaurants. Get a taxi back to the hotel (about €15) or risk getting mugged in the street like I did. The one amusing part about our stay was using the underground car park. Having to fit a car that is 1.84m wide into a lift that is 1.9m wide was fun. The car park is on level minus 5 by the way so you're in for a journey a long way down!

The hotel is a beautiful old building in a great location. The room was clean and well-insulated from any outside noise. Staff were attentive and accommodating. The spa was small but nice. Not sure I’d pay for a day pass but having it included was good. There were a couple of minor let-downs: the television didn’t work at all and the hotel wasn’t able to fix it during our stay, the extractor fan in the bathroom hadn’t been cleaned in a long time and was full of dirt, and the shower didn’t drain fast enough so we had to turn off the water every couple of minutes.
