We spent five days in Marseilles staying at this hotel while visiting our daughter who is studying there. The hotel is well situated on the front at the old port in a busy area. Although it gets busy we found there was not a lot of noise . The hotel is soundproofed, to limit the sound of traffic outside. Ideally... More

Highly recommendable hotel, excellent beds, right in the center of the town. Good amenities (only shower, no bathtub). 15min from Gare Saint-Charles. Very nice and friendly hotel staff and good breakfast.

The first thing to comment on the Escale Oceania is the location. Like the Guide Michelin says, it could not be more central, or perfect. Literally adjacent to the Metro (Vieux Port) means instant transport to anywhere is easy without using taxis. Staff were friendly, although with a very slight whiff of haughtiness (or was it smugness?) that you have... More

This hotel has perfect location, and very helpful staff. It ıs clean and convenient. The only two negative things are they don't have room service and no porter to carry your suitcases.(specially if you have back problem like me it is too bad) No fridge in rooms. Overall good stay and will surely go back.

Oceania Hôtel is certainly one of the most well located hotel to visit Marseille as it is located on the Vieux Port and Canebiere street which are respectively the brain and the spinal cord of Marseille city center. The hotel is really clean with a very friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast is amazing and I strongly recommand it for... More

Location of Hotel is wonderful. Great view from our balcony. Room was very clean and modern. Bit small. Rooms could do with a small fridge, tea and coffee facilities. Staff were just people who sat behind a desk, left zero impression. Although not the hotels fault, it is very noisy at night until dawn. For this reason I probably would... More

Just got back from an excellent five-night stay at the Escale Oceania Marseille during the 'Twixtmas' period. Normally we hire a car when on holiday but as this was a city and we'd read reports of mad driving and narrow streets in Marseille, we decided to rely on public transport. Good choice - the RTM is excellent value, for 10.50... More

Was welcomed by very nice and friendly lady upon check in. Room was OK. Not too big - but convenient. Clean. No alarm-clock, wake-up button on the remote control of TV does not work. Room was hot: although aircooling system set to lowest temperature, it kept on blowing warm air. Seemed a problem in more rooms. Opening the doors was... More
