Le Couvent

In the historic heart of Marseille, in a restored convent of the XVIIth century. Just behind the Old Port and alongside Place de Lenche—a stone’s throw from the Vieille Charité museum–a former 17th-century convent has been reborn as a stylish hotel for visitors to Marseille. Our ten luxurious suites are individually decorated and fully equipped for your comfort and convenience. Whether you are passing through for just a few days or planning a long stay of weeks or months (as do many of the actors, artists and businesspeople who form our clientele), one of our suites is for you. The building, which dates back to the seventeenth century, was a royal foundry before becoming the property of the Jesuits. It returned after the French Revolution in the heritage of the city of Marseille. After several years of work, the new owners have decided to open the convent to the visitors of Marseille.
