We stayed in Escale Oceania for one night en route to our 7-day cruise, which started in Marseille, France. Location & Surrounding Safety: The hotel is very close to Metro station; only about 1 minute walk. Considered Vieux Port is prorbably the most beautiful and one of the few tourist-worthy places in Marseille, this hotel is located in the center... More

The staff is very welcoming and helpful... all of them with no exception. The hotel is tidy with confortable beds, free WiFi with good signal everywhere I was including my room, many TV channels in different languages but I was surprised to find only the French channel of France 24 and not the English and Arabic ones. The breakfast was... More

Great location overlooking the old port, some rooms have balconies. Even though it is located in busy part of town, there was minimal noise level. The hotel is within walking distance of Lafayette shopping mall, metro and busses. It is a no frills hotel - no tea/coffee in rooms etc, and rooms are small, but comfortable, with modern finishes.

This hotel is located right on the Vieux Port. . .the place to be in Marsielle. The Vieux Port metro station is literally directly infront of the hotel, and you'll find a mall, many cafes, restaurants and shops nearby.

First, this hotel is situated at the bottom of Canebiere Street and overlooks the Old Port. We had a spacious balcony from where we could see both the port with... More

The Escale Oceania Vieux Port Hotel is located across the street from the old port. The rooms are spacious by French standards and the hotel is spotless. The room space was utilized very effectively which allowed for 2 large suitcases and 2 carry-on suitcases without the room feeling cramped. Very nice bathroom with wood floors throughout. While the Port area... More

Very central, clean, staff mostly very nice and helpful. In my opinion not worth the price though. Rooms are tiny and the so-called balcony to me is a windowsill... Also, the pictures of the hotel show another hotel and a bank that share the buidling. The area in general is very busy and dirty with a lot of bars and... More

The reception was warm and welcoming and the staff were very helpful, the room was terrific and the bed was extremely comfy. The bathroom was modern and very... More

Great location at the Vieux Port, just at the beginning of la Canebière (the Marseille Main Street); professional welcome; we reserved a “chambre supérieure avec un grand lit” and actually the room was good sized with a nice balcony facing the Operà and with lateral view on the Vieux Port; comfortable bathroom with separate WC; good breakfast buffet.
