Design hotel with a restaurant and rooftop bar in the La Plaine area, close to Cours Julien and the nightlife streets.
Mama Shelter Marseille is a design hotel at 64 Rue de la Loubière in the 6th arrondissement, in the La Plaine area close to Cours Julien and the city's nightlife streets. The neighbourhood is known for street art, independent shops, bars and the Place Jean-Jaurès market. The Notre-Dame du Mont-Cours Julien metro station is a short walk, and the Vieux-Port can be reached in around 15 minutes on foot or a few stops by metro.
The hotel is part of the Mama Shelter group, which is known for playful interiors created with designers and a lively, informal mood. The Marseille property follows this approach, with bold decor, a social ground floor and an urban, creative atmosphere that suits its neighbourhood. Room types include Double and Twin rooms, Superior rooms and Junior Suites, with air conditioning and wifi, and the rooms are compact but stylish.
The restaurant and rooftop bar are central to the experience, serving brasserie-style cooking and cocktails and drawing local diners as well as guests. The rooftop gives views over the city rooftops and toward Notre-Dame de la Garde. A buffet-style breakfast is offered. A pool or spa is not among the listed amenities.
Service is relaxed and aimed at younger travellers, couples, groups of friends and design-minded visitors, though families are accepted. The location suits those who want evenings out in the Cours Julien and La Plaine districts. Nightly rates usually range from EUR 100 to EUR 250 depending on season and room, with weekends and summer at the higher end. Noise from nearby bars is possible in street-facing rooms, so quieter floors are worth requesting.
