Hôtel Amista, Marseille

Good location, although difficult to find

The smallest room I have ever stayed in and the bar closed too early.

After spending well over an hour driving down narrow streets we could not find Hotel Amista using both the cars navigation and both our phones.

No one answered our calls and when we attempted to cancel the stay trough Bookings it was denied.

Great location, 10 minutes walk from the rail station and close to the old port.
It's a very pretty hotel (rooms and common parts), the bedroom was very comfortable and the staff were just so nice ...
very friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble.

The bathroom, whilst beautifully appointed and decorated, was very small.
Street noise just seemed to go on all night.

Staff are wonderful here and really care about guests’ comfort. My room was upgraded when I arrived and the staff left a handwritten note welcoming me to the hotel. The room was beautifully designed and extremely comfortable—perfect for a romantic getaway or just a relaxing stay. The bar was lovely for a quick dinner and breakfast was high quality and actually healthy and nourishing. Location was walkable near sights and also not too loud. This was a 10/10 experience for me.

This place was great and I hope to stay again when I return to Marseille.

Charming great harbor location. Rooms nicely decorated and comfortable. Excellent staff and breakfast

Limited facilities

The neighborhood is lively, but not loud. Everything is close. The staff were wonderful and helpful

Recently renovated hotel - very comfortable bed and a great shower. Quiet rooms. Super helpful staff.

No complaints

All staff were just absolutely lovely, friendly, helpful!

Nothing

Great location, lovely staff.
Very clean and very comfy bed with lovely buttery sheets!

Overhead lighting in bedroom too bright.

Hotel decorated beautifully. Staff friendly at reception and located centrally in Marseille. There is a lift which is helpful if you have cases.

When we started there was work being done on the stair case, sometimes with loud drilling and men sat on the stairs all day doing the repairs. I don’t think the hotel should have had the floors open until the guest areas were complete. The price was not reduced due to this inconvenience.
Also no mini fridges in the room to keep water cold.

Beautifully decorated and clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the Bistrot attached to the hotel was very, very good.

It was a bit of a challenge to reach by car, but we were able to be dropped off and picked up only about 100m away.

Staff was extremely pleasant and helpful. Rooms were clean. Hotel is well situated near the Vieux Port but away from the busier crowds. I found it quiet and comfortable

Rooms are small but that’s rather par for the course here.

We had the most magical stay at Hotel Amista! The staff were so friendly and welcoming, it was our honeymoon and they left us a little bottle of champagne to enjoy which was a wonderful surprise. They also suggested a delicious restaurant for us to try on our last night. The room was comfy and decorated beautifully! Will absolutely stay again when next in Marseille!

The hotel is newly refurbished and the room was lovely. The balcony was small and we did not sit on it but it was good to be able to open the balcony door. the staff were attentive and kind. The breakfast which was served in the cafe next door was tasty and offered freshly cooked eggs each day. It was easy to get to the old port from the hotel.

Unfortunately, there were lots of problems with the lift and as we were on the fourth floor it was crucial. Someone had to come most days to repair it and it usually got done fairly quickly. Water leaked under the shower door but I expect this could be rectified. Workmen were still working on the stairs

Location design staff and excellent breakfast

The breakfast was delicious and very reasonable! The hotel is in a great location, walking distance to some historic sites like the old port, close to Panier and 30 minutes to the beach! The staff were truly the highlight tho, so warm and friendly and always ready to help and offer recommendations.

We loved it all! The hotel staff were fantastic and dealt with any hiccups expertly and promptly. No complaints!

Very modern and tasteful rooms, very spacious, very nice staff, great locations

The price is a little high for one night also considering there was a lot of construction going on and we always had to push past workers which felt uncomfortable.

Beautifully designed rooms with lovely details and wooden floors. Everything has been sensitively considered. Loved the Smeg kettle and tea mugs. Felt like home. Staff were so helpful. Delicious breakfast. Highly recommended.

Due to construction nearby, taxis didn’t want to pick up or drop off close to the hotel.
