La Timone is in Marseille's 5th arrondissement, east of the city centre. This urban district combines residential streets, healthcare facilities and major transport routes. The metro makes it easy to reach the old districts, the port and the seafront; you can also explore the city on foot, district by district, alternating between museums, squares and promenades.

La Timone metro station is 290 m from the hotel. Palais Longchamp, its garden and the museums it houses are 1.6 km away. Saint-Charles railway station, 2.3 km away, serves Marseille with regional and national trains. The Vieux-Port, 2.5 km away, is a starting point for watching the boats and visiting the historic districts. For a trip to the seafront, the Prado beaches are 4.2 km away; Parc Borély, close to the beaches, has shaded paths.

Marseille is worth visiting all year round. Spring and autumn are ideal for walks around the city, with temperatures often milder than in the height of summer. In summer, allow time for the beaches and walks along the coast, bearing in mind the heat and crowds. You could start the day with the collections at Palais Longchamp, continue through the historic centre and finish by the water. The metro network connects several of these stops, so you can get around without relying on a car.
