  NOT A SAFE STAY

  05 Jun 2025

  Scary.....Not worth staying even been in a great location. Arrived 29th May 25 for 3 nights. Staff at reception very nice....Proceeded to 5th floor and dropped bags and went for dinner close buy on return about 11pm we found, Toilet seat broke, toilet flush broke and left on a shelf, no holder for shower hose over bath, bath screen not fit for purpose water out on floor, cable from TV wrapped around narrow table to prevent it from falling out i guess, glass so dirty the only way you are looking out is to open window, not safe when open as window opens fully and no protection from 5th floor, lift worked once and a alot of steps before port. Stayed the first night and the following morning reported problems to the same guy at reception. Later that evening we returned at 5pm and was told things would get fixed the next day at 12 noon, but we would need to be there and wait while everything was done. Went to room gathered our things and left.We walked a short distance to the HOTEL BEAUVAU and it cost extra but worth every penny for our last 2 nights. We have visited Marseille 5 time in the last 12 months and love the place, pity Hotel De Sud been in such a great location could not step up to the mark.

  No Frills hotel, excellent staff in a top location

  13 Feb 2024

  Recently stayed here at 50Euro per night, The hotel is located a stone's throw away from Vieux-Port in a side street, hence giving you access to town centre, the metro. With a tiny and almost hidden entrance the hotel, its easy to miss. From the rooms you can hear the hustle and bustle even at night however I like this kind of sound and slept with the windows open.The staff were absolutely fantastic (thanks to the 2 gentlemen and 1 lady) and was manned 24 hours per day.The rooms itself are small and quite basic, and not suited to families, but for single or couples looking for a place to stay. You would consider this a budget hotel without any luxuries at 50 Euro at night, id say its fair value. Thanks for the great stay, staff and location made it great

  Good to stop by for a night

  15 Jan 2019

  Perfect for our one night stop over while driving through little towns in south of France. Safe, just a few minute walk to the old port and about a 15 minutes walk to the train station or car rental. I would not rent a hotel near the train station. Be as close to the old port as you can. We wandered into a little side street area just a few minutes from the hotel to look for a restaurant and saw a really shady side of the area. We definitely didn't feel safe and it was me and my boyfriend from France (not just girls). The hotel room was very small but typical European style cute small feeling. The bed was actually in a "separate room" with a door that closed but the room itself was literally the size of the bed! The closet, I squeezed into it for a funny picture, the smallest I've ever seen, the width of just a few hangers. Everything was clean and good. The elevator was something to remember, it literally fit just me and my carry on suitcase (I'm 5'4, 110lbs)!! My boyfriend had to take the stairs with his suitcase. It was very funny! Go see for yourself! hoteldusud, Gérant at Hotel Du Sud Vieux Port, responded to this review We thank you for your visit and your comment.You have seen how an old building is adapted to current standards of safety, comfort and equipment.Cordially.

  Good Service But....

  22 Jun 2018

  Very small rooms for the price... I honestly wish I could receive a refund for what I paid for... Customer service is very good, the lady in counter was a nice but be aware this is a very compact hotel. As you can tell from my photo, the bed and the wall are so close there is not even space to walk. Overall, I am NOT happy with the price I paid for a room like this.

  Very ordinary

  15 Jun 2018

  OK - so this place is pretty well located right in front of the opera and a block from the harbour - but the rooms are as bare and basic as you could imagine and small (oddly, the bathroom was half the size of the bedroom!). It is cheapish - but there are a host of other hotels immediately nearby. If you want bare walls and a place that feels like a backpacker stay, I guess this is OK for you. For some reason they turned off the central aircon during the night and we sweltered.
