Above Marseille’s Vieux Port, Sofitel Marseille Vieux Port looks across the harbour towards Le Panier, MuCEM and the basilica of Notre Dame de la Garde. Rooms and suites use Mediterranean colours and contemporary furnishings, with port views, balconies and terraces dependent on category. Les Trois Forts serves Provençal cooking from a panoramic dining room, Le Carré provides brasserie dishes, and Le Dantès Skylounge opens onto a broad rooftop terrace. Sofitel Spa contains treatment rooms, a relaxation pool, sauna and hammam, alongside fitness facilities. Fort Saint Jean and the waterfront are reached downhill on foot, while ferries and public transport leave from the harbour for other parts of the city and coast.
