Le Petit Nice - Passedat - A seaside luxury hotel with a 3-star Michelin restaurant and commanding sea views

Perched on a seafront promontory in a central yet secluded setting, this 5-star property offers 16 air-conditioned rooms featuring premium bedding, free stocked minibars, bathrobes, and sea views. Each room is named after local calanques or personalities from the arts world, with one adapted for wheelchair access. Le Petit Nice - Passedat boasts a 3-star Michelin restaurant serving fish-focused dishes inspired by the day's catch, including deconstructed bouillabaisse and sea anemone, with alfresco dining available. A more affordable brasserie offers meat grills, salads, and pasta. Breakfast includes scrambled eggs served under a silver tureen. The hotel is 4 km from Marseille Saint-Charles station, 800 metres from Chateau Berger Spa, and 2 km from sandy beaches. Featured amenities include a 24-hour business center, complimentary newspapers, and free Wi-Fi. Guests can charter a private boat to the calanques or explore the Old Port of Marseille, 4 km away.
