Marseille, May 12


L'hotel du Corbusier, room B2

How could an architect resist the opportunity to stay a night at Le Corbusier's Unite d'Habitation? You can stay in Marseille for less, but not in such a notorious building, with easy access to all the building spaces. However the reception staff don't make it easy, with their slack responses to emails and unhelpful attitude on the phone. We booked a small studio, which had a small double bed and desk. If you are a large person (or people), you might want to upgrade to the next size room.
Bathroom: shower inside, toilet shared and outside.
View: Building grounds and the main street
Price: 59 euros
Recommended: Yes, for architecture buffs
