Hôtel Maison Montgrand Vieux-Port

Had a great 3-night stay at Hotel Maison. A great location to explore Marseille, you can't go wrong being so close to the harbour. Staff made some very useful recommendations to maximise our stay. Our apartment room was very well kitted out (coffee machine, etc), clean, and spacious. On reflection, we should have booked breakfast each morning; we only had it on our last morning, and it was very good, plentiful, and slightly better value than eating out! Many thanks to all involved in our stay.

Really convenient hotel for our 1 night stay in Marseille. The selling point was the amazing restaurant but the rooms did not disappoint for the purpose that they served. Hotels should always provide water- without the amazing restaurant this would have been a 2/3 stars because there’s one water dispenser on the first floor. If you’re on the third floor you won’t be happy

Great location. Very good restaurant. Friendly staff. Decent breakfast. Beds on the soft side. Power sockets weirdly clunky. I wish I could unsee how the staff behind the bar did the dishes. With water and their bare hands. DISGUSTING.

I booked the Montgrand with only afew weeks to go before our first visit to Marseille and just needed somewhere decent and safe to stay. On arrival , very warm welcome and what a gorgeous old building !!Cute little bar, lots of lovely seating but the best bit ; the beautiful garden which proved great respite during the heatwave!!||Our room was in a building next door- much bigger than expected, huge bed , great air con and looked out onto a little garden courtyard where we sat every morning. We never have hotel breakfast so popped out to a little bakery round the corner open at 8am and enjoyed our tranquil space. Would have been nice to have more tea/coffee sachets in the room but there were coffee options in the hotel building. |Great location too.As 1st time visitors to Marseille it was ideal- quite an upmarket area- near the Opera with lots of squares and food options but 10mins walk to the port area too. A sign of a good hotel is when you look forward to returning to it after a hot day out and sitting in a beautiful garden - beautiful

This hotel is definitely five star for its marvellous friendly, helpful, charming staff: all lovely but an especial mention to the receptionist Erlinda, and the waitress Loan. It’s also a good five for the public areas: the garden is glorious, and the 24/7 bar is nicely designed and comfy. It’s also in a great location, a little back from the bustle of the Vieux Port, on a quieter street, but very easy walking distance from the port and everywhere else you might want to go in Marseille. The hotel loses a star because the bedrooms and apartment aren’t in the lovely reception building, but in a range of other buildings along the street, which is a little strange. Our bedroom was in a rather dingy, drab, cramped building across the road, and the room was rather small and basic. A huge contrast to the public rooms. Also, one day at breakfast they seemed to have run out of a lot of things that weren’t being replaced quickly enough. It’s a shame, because the wonderful staff generally work their socks off! I would come back, but I’d choose my room carefully.

It's actually regarding there Garden restaurant. It was a bad experience when it comes to food. The service and friendliness is great the atmosphere is great and a nice setting. We started of with the 1 st course and it was really good, both the car patio de loup and my beef tartare were really good. The wine wasn't fresh I could feel like the bottle was opened the day before. The main cource was a disaster. We took the tuna steak ( mi cuit ) but it had a strong fishy smell like as if it was there for a couple of days in there fridge. And I took the poitrine de veau confite which is supposed to be slow cooked and very tender you wouldn't need a knife even... I received a piece of verry bad meet in a nice plate. I tried cutting but couldn't even because of all the vein and cartilage etc.. a returned after trying to find an edible side and couldn't ... The apologized and removed it from the bill after I said I don't want any other main course because I was feeling bad from that dish.. I expected them to offer dessert or coffee at least ... But nada. To top it off when the manager brought the bill we realized that she didn't apply theFork discount of 30 % and we had to remind her... In summery place is nice, people are nice but lack training, food was not up to the Bistro comic standard at all... Nice plating but bad taste.

The rooms didn’t match what was advertised online – very humid, and the A/C was freezing cold. The next morning, I arrived at 09:59 for breakfast, just hoping for a cappuccino and croissant, and was met with a sharp ‘Breakfast is only until 10!’ – in French, of course. I countered with some French assertiveness of my own, insisted, and got what I wanted. That small win brings it up to 3 stars instead of 2.

A wonderful little hotel in a perfect location! The rooms are compact but more than sufficient – after all, you’re just a 5-minute walk from the harbor, 2 minutes from the shopping street, and 4 minutes from the best restaurants in town. The breakfast is small but very diverse and delicious – a perfect way to start the day! I was especially impressed by the high-quality Rituals shampoo and soap, a small but thoughtful touch. The room prices are fair, and a great bonus is that you can enjoy a cup of coffee or hot chocolate even late in the evening – and at very reasonable prices! Another advantage is the well-organized parking solution: The parking garage is only a 5-minute walk away, so you can easily access your car if needed. The rooms could be a bit warmer, but overall, this is a highly recommended, charming hotel!
