4 star x-Self-catering Hotels in Marseille

Salty, sun-soaked Marseille is France’s oldest city and largest port. From the North African souk markets to the lovely Vieux Port and its photogenic fish market, it’s a melting pot of cultures – and birthplace of the fish stew speciality ‘bouillabaisse’. Museums include the island prison, Château d’If, immortalised in Alexandre Dumas’ ‘The Count of Monte Cristo’ .In Dumas’ words, Marseille remains ‘the meeting place of the entire world’.
