An immersive experience in a wonderful building

Stayed in August 2025

Not a room in a real appartment since the hotelroom was on the 4th floor (which is originally offices floor).

Access to the rooftop was excellent and wonderful experience. Very beautiful and interesting building. Original Le Corbusier furniture in the hotel room. View from our hotel room at the sea was very much appreciated.

Great staff and amazing opportunity to stay in Le Corbusier’s building

I think you stay here for a reason - the property is not unlike what would be government housing in the UK. For those interested in the history it is dream, for those uninterested or unable to understand a nightmare.

Some of the ladies yelling to each other and to the cleaning personnel. Creating uncontrollable atmosphere.

Wonderful place to stay in this historic building.

Architecture

Stayed in May 2025

The room seemed to have been divided into two rooms (I'm not sure if this was the original plan or a later decision). The room itself seemed to have been designed to accommodate a single bed - the double was a tight squeeze. The lighting was awkward; I was unable to get the original light fittings to operate and had to shift the lamp around to produce lighting usable from the bed.

Breakfast excellent. Fig jam and brioche, cold cuts, cheeses, fruit, toast, baguette ,croissants, tea and apple juice. Tour of building very good plus free access to roof space. I had a north facing room, so no sea view, but I sat on balcony for breakfast (and lunch) in cafe with uninterrupted panoramic view of the islands

A real privilege for an architecture enthusiast to stay in this historic building! There are only a small amount of rooms that make up the hotel section. It felt quite exclusive staying across from real residents. I enjoyed exploring the building and paid for breakfast to spend time in the dining area.

Room was very small but well thought out

Really interesting building and interesting experience to stay there. Nice to have the balcony space.

Even in October we found our small room to be quite hot and stuffy, especially at night. The air conditioning fans were located right above the bed which made it unpleasant to leave on constantly throughout the night. This meant we would be woken through the night feeling too hot, turn on the AC for 15 mins to cool the room before switching back off. We stayed for three nights and experienced broken sleep on all three nights. A small price to pay.

The building is absolutely stunning, to stay in such a location was very special and I'm absolutely glad I booked to stay here. The architect's dream. Staff were friendly on check-in and everything was smooth and easy. Parking is available for our rented car. The room was small but comfortable and the balcony had a lovely view. The real attraction to staying here is that you become 'a resident' of the building, with access to parts of the roof not open to the public, and access at times the public are not permitted. We were able to explore and engage with the building on our own and that was a very special experience.

The issue here is not the quality of the facilities but the chance to sleep in a World Heritage site.

The arrival went a bit chaotic

Unique building

The building

Stayed in July 2024

The maintenance is not great. Light bulbs not replaced and the hot water stopped working in my shower.

If you are interested in the architecture of Corbu this is a must. Access is available to a large part of the building including most of the roof terrace. It's located well away from the port area but the transport connections are frequent and inexpensive. The road that runs past Unite is pretty busy and noisy as are the parakeets which live in the trees. Breakfast in the hotel restaurant which is a fascinating space is well worth the extra payment and much better value than the cafe next door.

It would be great if there was a small fridge in the room.

This is an iconic masterpiece in the history of architecture. The joy was just being in the space. The rooms are original, so they are small, but delightful.

There could've been a few more plug sockets. Had to heat the kettle on the floor as there were only two sockets in the room.

The staff went out of their way to accommodate any requests. They were polite and friendly. The room was spacious with a large comfortable bed.

We would have liked to eat in the restaurant - the tasting menu was just not of interest and out of our price bracket - but we would have paid a premium price for a more normal meal!

Staying at L'Unite d'Habitation was a lifelong ambition and I was not disappointed. Beautifully refurbished preserving the spirit of Le Corbusier - but with a better bathroom! Breakfast was excellent and in such a lovely environment. Bus and metro route back to Marseille central easy and cheap. The staff at the hotel were wonderful and very friendly, we enjoyed the bookshop and access to the building afforded to us as temporary residents.

Very close to the city, short walk to the metro. Simple but great breakfast . Hotel is a UNESCO world heritage site. Take time to explore the complete building and its history, excellent views from the roof. Room was small but adequate and clean.

Bed was not what was expected in terms of comfort. Floors creaked, and can be heard at night.

Friendliness of the staff. I tried to speak French, maybe that was to do with it. There was a problem with the lock, and a lovely lady came to fix it and she was very chatty and cordial.
