The verdict

ibis Styles Aéroport is the only one of our twenty with breakfast confirmed in the rate. Breakfast, parking and the airport shuttle are all free, per the airport's page, and our routing puts MPCT about 9.2 road miles away, roughly 14 minutes with no traffic.

The shuttle runs 6:00 to 22:30 and goes to the airport, not the ship. For the cruise it's a taxi or your own car.

There's a pool, a restaurant and a terrace bar. Our facts come from the airport's hotel page, so pets and check-in times aren't covered.

Book it if you land late, and book the morning taxi before you go to bed.

Book it if

  • You want breakfast included
  • You land before 22:30 and want a free ride
  • You'll drive to the ship and want free parking the night before

Look elsewhere if

  • You land after 22:30.
  • You want the evening in Marseille itself.
  • You need pets or check-in times confirmed.
