We spent one night in this hotel on my first visist to Marseille. The location of the hotel is excellent, close to the Vieux Port Metro station. Although there is a lot going on right outside the hotel, our room was surprisingly quiet - but it did not face the harbour, but a side street. The room's size was ok,... More

First visit to Marseilles and booked a one night's stay at the Grand Tonic Hotel -it was so very disappointing. Room was advertised as "superior" however on arrival we were shown to a very small back room which was anything but "superior". Small, shabby, dark and dingy are the adjectives that spring to mind. When we complained the receptionist said... More

We stayed at this hotel for four nights in April 2013. We paid for a superior room, but the room was extremely small and 'tired'. Finish on furniture was chipped and burn marked and there was biro/pencil scrawl on the wallpaper above the bed. There were also fitments on the toilet seat missing. No problem with the staff, they were... More

The location couldn't be better. It is at the Vieux Port, within walking distance to a lot of restaurant and bar, old town area and more. The bus up to NotreDam de la garde is around the corner from the hotel. The hotel is not huge, My room is nicely renovated, good size and comfortable. No noise even is near... More

This hotel is well located as just on the "Vieux port" of Marseille but once you get in, it looks a bit shaggy. Rooms are nice if you manage to get the view on the portyard, otherwise it is a little gloomy. The staff is ok but was surprized to see a waiter cutting his nales on the terrace where... More

The location is excellent. It overlooks the vieux port which is wonderful. Just minutes away from great restaurants and the main shopping streets. The room felt a bit cold at times and unfortunately it was not possible to increase the heating. Room was spacious but the windows on the top floor are quite small.

A great stay in Marseille, ideally located upon the VIEUX PORT, close tu public transportation and down town Marseille. Rooms are cosy and clean. A fine place to settle in without being loaded with a car.

Located in the heart of Marseille harbor, the hotel provides modern and high-quality service at reasonable prices. With the major sights, best restaurant and shops within an easy walking distance, Grand Tonic Hotel is really comfortable. The staff is ready to help. Rooms are rather big for France.

I liked the city. A bit of research told me of the building work around the Old Port. However Marseille has lots to offer. The hotel has a beautiful location, helpful staff, amazingly comfortable bed, good bathroom and superb value. Expedia says it has a bar, it doesn't, however you can walk 50 metres to plenty of them......as long as... More

Fantastic location facing the Old Port next to the marina. The pier to take a boat to Chateau d'If is within minutes' walk. About 15 minutes' walk to the train station (convenient for airport shuttles). Plenty of cafes, restaurants, and shopping opportunities around. There is a metro station right next to the hotel but you can actually walk to all... More
