Radisson Blu Hotel, Marseille Vieux Port in Marseille

The Radisson Blu Marseille Vieux Port is very well-suited for travellers who prioritise location, want harbour views, and appreciate modern, comfortable hotel amenities. It particularly suits couples, tourists who plan to explore the city on foot, or those looking for an upgrade over basic lodging.

In one line:

“A stylish stay right by the Old Port—great view, excellent setting; just check room grade and set expectations about service details.”

If you’re looking for ultra-luxury boutique, perfect immaculate rooms, or absolute quiet, you might consider comparing with other 5-star options; but for a solid 4-star plus stay in central Marseille, this ticks many boxes.

💡 Practical tips
• Book a harbour view room if your budget allows—it makes a meaningful difference in experience.
• Request a quieter room (ask for one away from street/port-facing if noise is a concern).
• Check amenity availability: If the rooftop pool is important to you, check that it’s open during your dates (seasonality or maintenance can affect).
• Check condition on arrival: Since some rooms vary in condition, if you notice defects, report immediately and ask for a resolution.
• Use the location to your advantage: The Vieux Port façade puts you within walking distance of cafés, boat trips, museums, and public transport.
• Budget for extras: Dining, drinks and premium rooms may carry extra cost given the central location.
• For families or longer stays: Confirm room configurations, especially if you’re with children, and check for connecting rooms.
• Check parking/transport: If you’re arriving by car, facility and cost may be higher than hotels outside the city centre—plan accordingly.
• Time your visit: If you’re staying during busy summer weeks, book early for best rooms; if in quieter season, you may get better rate and less crowd at pool.

The place is great. I stayed for four nights with my husband. The staff were cordial and welcoming. Breakfast offered almost everything you could think of. The hotel is beautifully decorated, and the rooms were spacious, clean, and quiet. The bed was comfortable. The only downside was the AC—it didn’t work well at night, and the room felt a bit too warm. The location is perfect, with easy access to buses.

Really nice business and tourist hotel in fabulous location in the heart of (safe) Marseilles. Exceptional service with very good facilities. The concierge recommendations were fabulous. I checked in early and they had a wonderful room for me. I left some books in my room after checking out by mistake. They found them for me and posted them to the UK for a small charge. Just so impressed. Highly recommended and a beacon for the Radisson Blu brand.

No espresso machine, but great location and very clean, very nice pool!

Excellent location, the hotel itself, the room and breakfast are good

Much better than expected! The early flight arrived at 9 o'clock, and the room was ready! Victoria, the front desk lady, was very enthusiastic and spoke good English. She answered all kinds of questions carefully, including various matters about chartering a car to Nice. But the hotel's charter and taxi reservation are a bit expensive (50%+ premium vs. market, I chartered a car for 400 yuan, the hotel quoted 600 yuan; Uber 15 to the train station, the hotel charged 25 yuan...) This may be the only point that is not so ok, but this is an additional service outside of accommodation, so it is not included in this rating.
The room facilities are very new, and the inner courtyard is very quiet, I like it very much.

Not bad, it's OK
