A continental breakfast with fresh juices and local Provençal cheese is available. La Residence Du Vieux Port is 200 metres from Vieux Port Metro Station and less than five minutes from numerous bus routes and boats to beaches.

Really good location, minor drawbacks

unbeatable location convenient storage early bag drop-off
I found the hotel's location unbeatable. My room overlooked the square and port, a real treat. The staff accommodated early bag drop-off and post-checkout storage. This was quite convenient for exploring..
The balcony furniture was old and somewhat wobbly. It could use an update to better match the otherwise high standards of the hotel. I hope they consider modernizing this aspect soon.

Dining options are abundant right outside the hotel, allowing ease in exploring local cuisine. A central location provides quiet, break destination, accessible to both young and older travellers alike.
