This old building from the 17th Century, was formally a Corsican grocery shop, whereas today it has been transformed into an urban Maison d’Hôtes. With 5 unique rooms, each of them designed by talented artists in different styles. You will enjoy your stay in an original artistic experience, in a house full of history.

It is an exceptional location in the historic centre of the Panier district of Marseilles, 500m from the Vieux Port and 5 minutes from the centre of town.

Artists, graphic designers, and painters from different locations and environments, were invited to design each room in the house, in making each project something close to their style. Each, in its own way, succeeded in creating an amazing, distinct, and audacious atmosphere.

There is living/dining room in which you relax, read or watch the TV, and where breakfast is service each morning.  Enjoy the sun on the rooftop terrace from which you can admire the rooftiles and a panoramic view from the Marseilles harbour to the coast. Art exhibitions decorate the corridors of the house.

The rooms are peaceful, sheltered from the noise of the town.  They are different sizes and are equipped with wifi, hifi, air-conditioning, a private toilet and in-room shower.  Rooms may be re-designed periodically. Prices start at €95 a night for 2.
