Grand Hotel Beauvau Marseille Vieux Port

Old School Charm at Marseille's Old Port

Despite a recent overhaul, this 19th century hotel and former artist hangout in Marseille has retained not only its classic charms – antique furnishings and Provençal fabrics in each of the beautifully-appointed 73 rooms – but its inimitable views of the Vieux Port. In the beating heart of the city and in proximity to public transportation, shopping areas and fantastic restaurants, it's a terrific spot to settle in on a first visit.
