There is a bit trade-off with Hotel Le Cassiden. Its great central location comes with inconvenient parking and cramped quarters. We did save money on the hotel which we devoted to good meals and the hotel is only steps from the harbour,||||l knew going in that the room was going to be small. However, I had no idea a hotel room could be that small. The bathroom had a sink and toilet area roughly the size of two L-shaped phone booths. The shower was actually smaller than a phone booth. I had to walk in the bathroom door sideways to enter the bathroom.||||I did see a couple of older patrons struggling with a big bag coming up the long staircase. Neither looked very happy. ||||I was really disappointed with the parking. I had swapped emails with the management and they had insisted parking was very close. It was not. It was about a six-minute walk up a hill. We took small carry on bags down to the hotel so that worked. It meant that when we checked-out we had to reorganize and repack our stuff in the trunk of the car in the public car park so that was fun.||||I will say, staff was very helpful and helped us out on a couple...
Read moreA two star hotel in the best location (right next to the port) Cassis accommodation is not cheap but this hotel is, by comparison, very reasonably priced. The staff are friendly and helpful and the room was spotlessly clean. Facilities are limited but better than expected: double glazed windows, air con/heating, etc. The bed was very comfortable but don’t expect it to be made up everyday nor the room serviced. When I inquired about this, I was told rooms were only serviced every second day. Didn’t worry us about might be an issue for some. I would suggest, if you want to avoid the noise of the street, you should book a room at the rear of the building, which we did, and it was blissfully quiet with the window open. Parking is a nightmare in Cassis but for a reasonable fee, you can prebook a parking space in a nearby car park. This is the perfect hotel for anyone on a budget and has reasonable expectations. I have read some reviews where people are expecting to live in a palace...
Read moreDuring your vacation, if you are looking for rest and relaxation in a quiet and clean space, then this is NOT where you should stay. The bottom of the shower surround was caked with black/brown gunk and there was pubic hair inside the shower from the last guest. The bottom sheet had a sizeable hole in it. ||||Note that the room was very tiny. A large person would have difficulty squeezing between the tight space between the shower and the toilet. |||| When we arrived, about 10:22 a.m., the entire hotel throbbed and boomed from the music pouring into the street from the brasserie across the street. This incessant noise went on for nearly 12 hours ending minutes before 22:00. Trying to rest, work or even BE in the room during this time was nearly impossible. ||||We had booked/payed for 2 nights. When we requested a refund for ONLY the second night. The owner refused and instead offered us "credit" so that we could stay at their hotel again at some...
