The location is unbeatable, right across the meeting point in the port. All types of stores and places to eat are just outside the hotel. Transportation is available and walkable distance to a wonderful plaza full of restaurants. We got a room facing the port, and the view was amazing. I loved this hotel, and recommend it fully

Great location in the Port area of Marseille. Good access to restaurants etc. Metro was really close. The port area is noisy. The windows in the hotel do a good job keeping most of the noise out. Reception is up 2 flights of stairs with no elevator. There is a small elevator from reception up to the bedroom floors.

The hotel is in a very nice area, by the harbour. Very convenient for walking to see the sites, and sampling the many restaurants in the area. It's a very safe neighbourhood and pretty. The staff are very friendly and helpful, going out of their way to find out where you are from, what you want to do and they offer suggestions and ideas. Highly recommend this hotel.

Location, location, very central close to metro, bus, restaurants, shops etc. However, be prepared to haul luggages from streeti level to the 1st floor where the reception is. The room is small, but so is the price. I say excellent value for money.

Perfect location and views

The location of the hotel was perfect; it was close to many restaurants, shopping, boat tours, and historic sites and museums. We paid a little more for a view of the old port and it did not disappoint!! Check in and check out were fairly easy, although the interface could be improved for some of the answer choices. Breakfast food was excellent. Staff was extremely helpful. We wish the room had had a safe so that we could secure our passports. Unfortunately when we arrived, the elevator was broken. So if you have heavy luggage like we did, it could be a problem. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay at the Life Hotel immensely!!

Nice, simple, Corel with a fantastic location

Very nice, simple, hotel in a fantastic location. Definitely well priced. Friendly staff. A/C works well. There is a a 1-1/2 story flight of stairs to get from entrance up to the lobby, which is a bit arduous with luggage. The front desk attendant saw us arriving and came down to to help which was great, but we had more bags than she had hands, so still some work. Luckily there is an elevator going up to the rooms.
