Photos and Description of this 1 bedroom holiday apartment in Marseille - La Maison des Augustines
In the most picturesque historic district, charming flat close to Old Harbour

The building is situated Place des Augustines, square classified as 17th century, in the heart of the older district of Marseille, Le Panier. Napoleon Bonaparte lived in the building in 1786, he was an officer and assigned to service of the coast artillery!

The apartment has been beautifully removed. It retains all the charm of its history, with its ancient wooden ceilings, its old cement tiles, and its internal staircase.

Le Panier is the historic district of Marseille, the most picturesque. All these narrow alleys such as in the Middle Ages, look like a movie set and the façades of houses are for certain magnificent. We find around the streets, artists' shops: painters, potters, sculptors, charming little squares, museums...

There are many amenities nearby for food, drink, public transportation, shopping, parking. You'll walk everywhere, to the train station, restaurants, street markets, along the harbour, all over town.

Lovely Apartment, Great Location!

This apartment worked out great. The location was ideal, near the Panier district but also close to the water. We stayed here as a couple with my sister and there was plenty of room for the three of us.

My only suggestions would be 1) smaller security deposit (the deposit was more than twice the cost of the rental) 2) a curtain in the shower or a mounted shower nozzle (it was almost impossible not to splash water when using the hand-held shower-- we ended up just taking baths to avoid the problem, which was not ideal).

Otherwise we enjoyed it! Well worth arranging airport pick-up with Anik, who is very friendly and knowledgable. Plus the cost was only about half as much as a taxi.

Definitely our home away from home!!

My husband, grown son, and I rented the apt for 6 days. The owner, Anik, picked us up at the airport. It was very kind of her.
The apt itself was very welcoming, very clean, very comfortable - even better and bigger than the pictures on line suggested.
We arrived to find directions for everything we would need for our stay placed on the table in the apartment and Anik shared with us her passion for the city.
The location was wonderful - near the metro, a cab stand and very close to one of the shops where we could buy hand made ice creams that were listed in a travel and leisure magazine!
The apartment, its amenities and its location (on the edge of the Panier district), is close the beautiful harbour.
This made the apartment an ideal headquarters for touring and visiting the city.
It was definitely our home away from home.
I would highly recommend this apartment and I hope to return soon. Not to mention the care, thoughtfulness and professionalism of the owner.

Coup de coeur

véritable coup de coeur pour cet endroit confortable et intime au coeur de Marseille. C'est avec beaucoup de goût et cette jolie simplicité que ce lieu vous attache. On s'y sent tout de suite bien. L'appartement est bien équipé et très calme bien que situé à 100m du Vieux Port. Le quartier est très pittoresque, avec ses petits commerces, ses bistrots, et ses bons restaurants . La situation géographique de l'appartement nous a permis de découvrir les principaux sites à pied, notamment le Panier, le quartier de Marseille le plus authentique, que je ne connaissais guère. Je sais que je reviendrais, peut-être pour ouvrir à nouveau les volets pour contempler le Vieux Port et cette charmante petite place, typiquement marseillaise...

Directly in the center of Marseille, near the Vieux Port. Beautiful historic apartment, modern and perfect for a quiet stay for two people. Shops, cafes and restaurants nearby. We have felt very comfortable.

wonderful place in Marseille

staying at Anik's apartment was excellent, the location is simply perfect. the place was located very near a tube station, and was central enough that the main street (i forget the name of it) was only a 3minute walk away. there are plenty of great eats around the apartment, grocery stores, and everything you may need during your stay in Marseille.
the apartment itself was also great. very clean, beautiful in the inside, spacious, and well equipped. it was a great experience staying in Anik's vacation rental, and i am definitely planning to stay here next time i go to Marseille.

We had a wonderful week in this apartment. The area is extremely interesting and close to everything you require, with a good selection of bars and restaurants. Le Panier, le Vieux Port, markets- fruit, veg and fish, shopping, we walked everywhere.The apartment was great, well equipped and clean. It had spacious rooms, beautifully appointed in excellent condition and recently redecorated. It was also very quiet at night which is unusual for such a central location. Anik was a charming host, so helpful and available to answer every question we had. We recommend it to anyone wishing to visit Marseille which is an exciting city. Great food, fantastic people and wonderful views.
