Summary

Location

True to its name, Les Bords de Mer straddles the border of the Mediterranean Sea in Marseille. Sparkling views abound from every room, and guests get easy access to the beautiful Catalans Beach.

The top city attractions lie a quick taxi trip away, such as the historic Old Port (5 minutes) and the iconic Calanques cliffs (20 minutes).

Other nearby highlights include the glitzy villas of Corniche Kennedy and the picture-perfect Côte Bleue coastline.

The Marseille Provence Airport is a 50-minute car trip from the hotel. You can also get there from the airports in Cannes or Nice in about 90 minutes.

Rooms & Suites

Les Bords de Mer takes full advantage of its privileged location—all 19 rooms and suites feature uninterrupted Mediterranean views. Most boast a breezy balcony or terrace so you can while away the day outdoors.

Chic pastel-coloured walls and natural wood décor define the design, a throwback to the vintage charm of yesteryear. But the 1950s golden age aesthetic comes with a contemporary touch—think Scandinavian-style furnishings peppered throughout the airy, whitewashed rooms.

Large ensuites feature plush marble tiles, roomy walk-in showers, and chic double vanities. Plus, you get a complimentary selection of organic REN skincare products.

Dotted throughout its halls and rooms lies an extensive collection of outstanding contemporary art. Expect to encounter superb works from renowned artists such as Arnaud Vasseux and Constance Sorel.

Pools & Facilities

The hotel has an inviting above-ground pool that peers out over the Frioul archipelago—it’s a scenic spot for a dip.

If you’re craving a proper good pampering, hit up the wellness spa instead. This superb 300m2 facility is a soothing oasis, where honey-coloured natural wood and dim underlighting set a serene scene.

The spa houses a steamy hammam and sauna to soothe your stress away, plus a relaxation pool for a quiet soak.

Highly trained wellness gurus administer a range of massage and facial treatments, using top-shelf skincare products to restore your youthful glow.

Food & Drinks

Head chef Camille Gandolfo brings the flavours of the sea straight to your plate at the exquisite Les Bords de Mer Restaurant.

The elegant venue offers both alfresco and indoor dining, with all tables set at sea level to guarantee a memorable meal. Fresh contemporary cuisine dominates the menu, with each seafood dish sourced from local fisherman that day.

Delectable non-seafood dishes are available, as well as an impressive selection of Domaine de Fontenille wines.

Come during the season (November to March), and you’ll get to sample sea urchin, a beloved Marseille delicacy, on weekends.

For a sophisticated drink, head to the Rooftop Bar, which does creative cocktails infused with Provençal aromas. The laidback venue also has a wide variety of French wines and premium beer.

Special Info

The hotel offers plenty of sports and gastronomic experiences.

To name a few: adventurous canoe ride on a fully transparent kayak canoes, boat ride with aperitif or sea urchin tasting on the rooftop.
