Serviced Apartments in Marseille

Marseille is the beautiful French city on the south coast of the country. Famous for its sunny summers and mild winters, Marseille has long been a popular destination for tourists wishing to enjoy a Mediterranean break. Serviced accommodation is some of the best in France, with some luxurious Marseille apartment rentals to make use of.

Nestled nicely on the south coast between Toulon to the east and Montpellier to the west, Marseille is wonderfully situated in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. Despite being the second-largest city in France, it is still possible to enjoy a quiet holiday in Marseille if you choose to stay out of the city centre. Luckily, Marseille holiday apartments are available in various parts of the city, meaning you can be bang in the middle or towards the beaches, whichever you prefer.

Marseille is packed full of art galleries and museums as well as fantastic architecture and churches. The Old Port area of the city is the location of the largest harbour and marina in Marseille and is protected by two huge forts. This is also a wonderful area to go for a meal, as there are lots of restaurants and cafes down by the waterfront. You can also take some fresh produce back to your Marseille holiday letting from the wonderful fishmarket in the harbour. Let the old lighthouse guide you down to the Old Port!

The best museum in the city is the Musée d'Histoire; centrally located, it contains ancient artefacts from Greek and Roman times and has a particularly well documented history of the sea; being the home of the most well-preserved hull of a 6th century boat in the world. It is also possible to visit the Abbey of Saint-Victor from Marseille city centre (center) apartments to see the 5th century crypt and catacombs. Creepy!

Travelling outside of the city itself and day trips are possible to Allauch, a commune just outside of Marseille with beautiful views of Marseille and the Mediterranean. You may even be able to spot your Marseille short-term apartment from here.

Taking a break from the city itself and your Marseille serviced residence, you can also take a ferry trip from the Old Port to the islands of the Frioul archipelago in the Bay of Marseille. Fans of literature may know that the prison of Château d'If was the setting for The Count of Monte Cristo, a very famous French novel. Ratonneau and Pomègues islands are also accessible via a man-made breakwater.

Marseille is almost the perfect Mediterranean French city.
