We were really surprised as when you think 'budget' you think of hotels without TVs, no air conditioning or maybe no daily cleaning. This hotel had all of this as well an amazing location and great extras like a free water refill station and a coffee machine. The relaxing area downstairs was really nice for a quiet read, plus the lockers were very convenient as we had a late flight so could leave them there most of the day!

The only thing was that in the room there was a lack of space for your clothes. This was fine as we don't mind living out of suitcases, but if you bring a lot of luggage make sure you're prepared to only have about 4 hangers to hang your clothes.

Lovely old building in centre of restaurant district close to the old port and the beautiful wooden boats there. Also close to public transport hub. Staff delightful and very helpful provided a spare plug adapter and extra pillows.

It was very hot while we were there and the cold drink vending machine was broken. The shower cubicle in our room needed bleaching to get rid of black mould

Excellent location, allowed me to nip back to my room throughout the day if needed in between various sightseeing/activities. Room was nice and quiet too. Perfect for a solo traveller!

Cleaners come early, and one day they competely ignored my 'do not disturb' sign and walked straight in without knocking.

Great location. Close to Old port, restaurants, transport bus and metro. Ibis always designs well and packs all you need into the space efficiently. Lots of good decoration, the "underwater" themed passage between buildings is interesting. Good to have cold water and drinks machine in foyer.

Ceiling sloped down and in a small room felt a bit like living in the boxroom under the stairs. Tiny window let in little light.

Great location just minutes from the port/marina and close to many restaurants (it’s a 20min walk downhill from the train station). Wifi was strong, air conditioning good and bed comfortable. Nespresso and regular vending machine in lobby.

I paid an extra €8 for breakfast and it wasn’t worth it, pastries not fresh, very limited bread options for France, fake juices although dairy free milk was available. No free water or fridge in room, these are now basics in Europe!

Hotel within walking distance of everything important to us, in centre of Marseille. We just loved it, and intend to use this hotel on our future visits here.(approx 2-3 every year)

Previous occupants were smoking in the room. (Regrettably not that uncommon in France).

Great location and room perfectly acceptable and very clean, shame the bed was very squeaky. One receptionist was not particularly nice, quite offhand and borderline rude but the others were fine. Luggage storage was annoying, the machine needed the exact change and didn’t work well; a member of staff who helped me also struggled to get the doors to close.

Great location. Nice breakfast! Location is great.

Tripple room is a bit too small for three adults. Given it's in a busy tourist spot, it's hard to park. We tried to load on our luggage after picking up our car, but we were not able to stop at the entrance of the hotel. Given it was blocked by 2 other vehiele and we had to move on to avoid causing traffice jam. Other than that, it was great stay.

We stayed for one night on our way home, Ibis is a very practical chain and I know it's good when you need something simple to host you while on the way, I've often opted for this chain during my road trips. The hotel was pretty crowded but our room had a window facing on an inner courtyard, so it was quiet and nice. Overall we had all we needed and we were satisfied.

It's possible that we didn't find it because there was a lot of people waiting in the hall, probably a tour group, and we didn't feel like bothering the receptionists who were very busy, but some informative material with advices about nearby places to eat would've been appreciated since we felt a bit lost in such a big city, as dwellers of the italian countryside that we are.

This hotel is in an excellent location, close to the old port, the metro and many restaurants. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the hotel was very clean. We really appreciated the water bottle filling point in the lobby as well as the coffee machine. There was also a microwave on the lobby for use of guests, which we thought was a good idea.
