For most travelers, Marseille Provence Airport (MRS) is the clear, practical choice; it is situated in the city of Vitrolles itself and offers the fastest, most affordable connections. Other airports serve neighboring cities and require significant travel. Nice Cote d'Azur Airport (NCE), located in the nearby city of Nice, serves as a major international gateway but necessitates a lengthy train or bus journey. Similarly, Hyeres Airport (TLN) serves the city of Hyeres and is better suited for travelers already located in the Var region. Beziers Cap d'Agde Airport (BZR) lies in the neighboring city of Beziers and primarily caters to regional demand. Finally, the Monaco Heliport (MCM) is exclusively for high-end, rapid transfers to the Principality of Monaco and is not a conventional arrival point for those visiting Vitrolles. When planning your trip, consider that Marseille Provence Airport (MRS) provides the best balance of speed and cost, while international hubs like Nice Cote d'Azur Airport (NCE) should only be used if specific flight availability dictates otherwise.

We stayed at this hotel because it is close to the airport and convenient for an early flight. The price was reasonable, but the shuttle bus is quite small and cannot carry many guests. If daytime check-in is not possible, it is better to call ahead and reserve the shuttle. Otherwise, you may need to take an Uber, which costs around 11–12 euros for a 3–5 minute ride to the airport.FromUS$81

There is a free shuttle bus from the airport, so even if you arrive late at night they will come and pick you up right away! The breakfast buffet had more variety than I expected, which was great♪
The only thing that was disappointing was that I booked two rooms for one person, but they put us in one room for two. Even though the price was cheaper for two people per room, they wouldn't refund me. I should have checked more carefully when I checked in, but in the end, I ended up paying extra, which was annoying.
But the facilities at the inn, the breakfast that you can eat on the terrace, and the access were all good!FromUS$82

Christophe's pad is convenient for the shops, markets and sights of Aix, is in a pleasant neighbourhood, and has parking which is valuable because finding anywhere to park in the city is difficult, once you negotiate your way past La Fada, a sad neighbour who stands in front of your car and rambles on incomprehensibly. The pad is well provided with pots, pans etc and supplied with tea, coffee, herbs, spices etc, though it could do with a toaster, as well as a rubber mat for the inside of the bath because one can slip easily. It's a pad best for people who are fit - it's on the 3rd floor, and who get up, eat and go to bed at the same time because it is very sonorous with the slightest noise reverberating around the flat. For example I was forbidden to wear slippers by my wife because very step sounded on the laminated floor - there are no carpets or rugs - and every cut and scrape on the Ikea crockery grated.FromUS$52

Excellent hotel for small family with an early flight.
Booked a triple room for an unbelievable low price.
King size bed was super comfortable.
The sofa bed was already made into very nice, comfortable bed. The room was outfitted with everything you could want and impeccably clean.
The only down side was that room was a little warm and windows cannot be opened and air conditioning was not operational, presumably because it was April.
We checked in late and left early, so wasn’t able to take advantage of any hotel amenities. But the lobby and restaurant looked neat and modern.
Check in and out were easy and efficient.FromUS$116

The location was perfect for our early morning flight from the airport. The Receptionist, Sophia, was very accommodating and helped us with storing luggage we didn't need in the room. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom facilities adequate. We were excited to learn that there was a restaurant on site for dining. HOWEVER, when we went to dine, it took quite a while to get attention to be seated. THEN it took ages before we received menus to make a selection. Staff just didn't seem to be interested in doing their job in a pleasant, welcoming way. Our dinner choices came quickly and were very tasty for the most part. My chicken caesar salad contained some tomato-like slices that were inedible so I removed them after testing one piece only. Check out was awkward as the fellow on the desk had difficulty understanding our need to pick up our stored luggage. He couldn't find our pieces in the room behind his station. I mimed that t was on a cart and he tweeted that it might be in a different cupboard/closet. Thankfully, he found it and did assist us taking the heavy pieces out to the taxi that had been reserved for us. We were appreciative of that. I suspect it was a communication issue as we do not speak French and the man clearly did not understand English as well as the day staff did. I down-graded facilities because the swimming pool was basically unusable given that the outside dining area now abuts it and the smoking permitted there made the air quality intolerable. We noted that half walls have been added around the pool that act as a barricade (different from our previous stay) and they give a ”Keep Out” message. Perhaps needed for safety if young children are running about but off-putting for us. We had been looking forward to a refreshing swim after a drive in 35C weather from our holiday location in the Luberon.FromUS$149

I've lived in Marseille for over 10 years. This 3-day round-trip was to take my dog to Hong Kong for work. The hotel is very close to the airport, a bit pricey, but understandable, and the shuttle service is a plus. However, for a 3-star hotel, the cleanliness leaves something to be desired. The rooms are small and old, and there are dead insects on the walls. Plus, it's a real mosquito hotspot.
Although France encourages eco-responsibility, I understand that they don't provide disposable toiletries. But emergency slippers would still be necessary, at least to avoid walking barefoot on a not-so-clean floor. We're not going to be walking around in our outdoor shoes, are we? The hotel's leisure facilities are also pretty average, but the pet-friendliness and customer service are still a plus.FromUS$98

Let's start with good things:
- staff is nice
- breakfast isn't bad
- room is quite big
To be improved:
- shuttle service, frequency too low (once every 30 min or every hour). Other hotels near the airports offer shuttle on demand, ready within 5 minutes
- staff not very flexible (they wouldn't offer you late check out if you have to wait one hour for the shuttle)
- very basic equipment, they even use paper cups in the room, no proper glasses
- they make you pay even to weigh your luggage (see picture) ~ that's a shame!
Overall, it seems a bit like a low cost hotelFromUS$85

Advantages: The hotel is clean and the front desk service is good. The price is moderate, although it is a bit far from the airport compared to other hotels, it is more convenient to pick up the car.
Disadvantages: The location is a bit biased, next to the freight factory, there are no supermarkets and restaurants around, it is not convenient to eat.FromUS$85

Check in was straightforward. The room was small and smelt strongly of cigarettes. The bed was comfortable and everything was clean. Staff were friendly and hospitable. Breakfast was plentiful with a wide selection of continental fare. Location was 10 minutes walking from the airport and they offered a free shuttle bus if you didn’t want to walk. Perfect for an overnight stay.FromUS$95
