Very nice welcome when I arrived quite late, I could still order some food and drink. Room was fine and the location of the hotel is excellent just next to the train station and within walking distance to the city centre.

The hotel was really good except that it was so difficult to find. It is so badly signposted that we were unable to find it despite being so close to the station. Some signs would have made the walk so much easier. It should have taken minutes but it took more than 1/2 an hour and even people who we asked/ taxi drivers and other hotel workers said it is so tricky to find.

Really convenient location for Gare Marseille St Charles. The hotel is super quiet and also a great option for someone like me, travelling alone, I could eat in and not have to brave the streets around which are quite busy.

Clean, comfortable, efficient hotel. Good location next to the train station. Staff was friendly and helpful. Wonderful recommendation for dinner! Rooms need more outlets/usb ports. Hair dryer needs updating. Otherwise, high marks!

Horrible experience about security of building. Someone was knocking on my door at 1am without stopping. My husband had to yell and threaten to call the police for person to go away. I thought someone was trying to gain access to my room to rob us. They did not say a word, only banging on the door. There is a vulnerable spot as lifts can be operated without electronic keys. I felt very scared and unsafe. We called the concierge and asked for someone to check CCTV. No one got back to us with an explanation or apology. NEVER going back there. Thank god it happened on my last night anyway.

Great deal for a night literally across the street from the train station. Clean enough, quiet, small but for the price much better than the old options. Toilet did not work though.

Convenient, clean, comfortable
Nice stay at very conveniently placed hotel next to main rail station. However, our room had almost no electrical outlets, and no coffee machine. Not dealbreakers, of course, but in a competitive market for hotel accommodation, Ibis should be providing these things.
Also, everything is a "pay for" extra, it seems... baggage storage, for example. Ouch.
