Do you want to stay at the Hotel Belle and enjoy a drink on the Caravelle terrace? Our friends have reigned over the Old Port of Marseille for almost 100 years. A look back at these 2 historical nuggets.
A building proudly standing for almost 100 years…
Le La Caravelle bar-restaurant, installed on the first floor of the building which also houses the Belle Vue Hotel, was a cabaret for sailors in the 1920s…
Two more years and we will be able to crown the crown of 100 years of reign over the Old Port of Marseille : )

We let you admire the old cars parked in front of the hotel!
Today, Old Port is pedestrian.
In just a few steps, you can board a maritime shuttle for beaches of Marseille, the Frioul islands and the Calanques.
Its staircase is a “survivor”
During the Second World War, On May 27, 1944, the Germans bombed the Old Port.
400 buildings are destroyed. The Belle Vue hotel and the Caravelle remain standing. The staircase too!
This is why it is today considered part of the Marseille heritage.
Her photogenicity is highlighted by Apple in one of its campaigns “ photographed with iPhone » and it finds itself plastered on the facade of the Gare de Lyon in Paris
Today, the staircase is still here but for reasons of convenience, an elevator must come to assist it :)
Sustainable development, designer decor and breakfast with a view
The Belle Vue hotel is a cozy hotel.
Whether you are alone, in pairs, with family, you will appreciate the comfort of its rooms, the elegant modernity of its decoration and its commitment to sustainable development.
He has also been rewarded several times by the Green Key Label for its environmental efforts.
Its breakfast is made with fresh produce. It is eaten at Caravelle.
Whether you are in the dining room or on the terrace, you will embrace all of Marseille as soon as the sun rises, under the benevolent gaze of Notre Dame de la Garde.
