37 avenue Beau Pin, 13008 Marseille
At the turn of a pine-lined alley, a 19th-century residence welcomes you with simplicity and elegance. You are in Marseille, in the peaceful neighborhood of Marseilleveyre, just steps from the beaches and the Calanques National Park. Château Beaupin reveals itself as a discreet address, far from the hustle and bustle of the city center, yet perfectly connected to the attractions of the Phocean city. This house, listed as a historic monument, is now home to a small-scale hotel where the charm of yesteryear meets contemporary and attentive hospitality.
Upon entering, your gaze is drawn to the château's distinctive façade, designed by Paul Sédille, the renowned architect of Paris' Printemps department store. The ensemble evokes a Mediterranean art of living, where ancient materials, carefully chosen objects, and clean lines create a soothing atmosphere. The lush garden, dotted with sculptures and Mediterranean shrubs, leads you to the swimming pool, promising relaxation on hot summer days.
Inside, fourteen rooms and suites showcase a palette of soft colors, natural materials, and generous spaces. Here, you'll find the comfort of a private mansion combined with the laid-back vibe of a vacation home. Queen-size bedding, air conditioning, a coffee machine and tea selection, high-speed Wi-Fi, refined linens, and artisanal toiletries reflect a constant attention to guests' well-being.
Various accommodation categories allow you to tailor your stay to your desires. Some rooms offer sea views, balconies, or direct access to the garden. The suites, with their separate living rooms, provide ideal living spaces for extended stays. The Master Apartment, with its two bedrooms, living room, equipped kitchen, and sea-view balcony, is perfect for families or friends seeking privacy.
The experience continues in the common areas, particularly around the hidden bar, inspired by 1930s speakeasies. This cozy space invites you to discover a menu of house cocktails in a dimly lit ambiance, accompanied by a cigar cellar for enthusiasts. In the morning, a complete and gourmet breakfast is offered, featuring pastries, fresh juices, cheeses, eggs, and gluten-free or lactose-free options upon request.
Château Beaupin also offers a daytime snack service, with a light menu crafted from local and seasonal products. On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings, the temporary bistro set up in the gardens offers an original culinary experience with dishes prepared over a brasero. Chef Sidi Sali delivers generous cuisine with bold flavors, blending Mediterranean traditions and contemporary creativity.
Art also holds a unique place in the life of the château. The Beaupin Gallery regularly showcases works by contemporary artists in the common areas. More than just decor, this artistic initiative is an integral part of the experience, giving the place a unique soul. Each room in the château becomes an invitation to contemplation or conversation.
Designed to offer comfort and flexibility, the establishment provides secured parking, a fitness area, and solutions for hosting groups or seminars. The indoor lounges and garden terrace can accommodate events for up to 80 people in a calm and elegant setting, conducive to both professional and private exchanges.
For an autonomous stay, some rooms and suites are equipped with kitchenettes, suitable for long stays or families. The spirit of the place remains true to its origins: to offer warm, simple, and refined accommodation where you quickly feel at home.
From the hotel, numerous outings await. On foot, you can reach the Pointe Rouge beach, then follow the coastline to Borély Park. Hiking enthusiasts will find panoramic trails among the pines, white rocks, and turquoise sea in the Calanques of Sormiou and Morgiou. For a more urban discovery, the Old Port is just about fifteen minutes away by car.
The neighborhood is also full of culinary gems to explore. Le Vivier, in Cours Julien, offers inventive cuisine in a lively setting. Along the Corniche, several Marseille institutions serve fresh fish or a traditional bouillabaisse. For a terrace lunch, the restaurants at the Goudes harbor are worth a visit, with their village ambiance and sea views.
Culturally, don't miss the Mucem, the Regards de Provence Museum, or the Cantini Museum, which provide rich insights into Mediterranean history and contemporary creativity. The Longchamp Palace, with its garden and museums, is also a lovely stop. In summer, the city comes alive with festivals, concerts, and open-air performances in neighborhoods like Le Panier, La Belle de Mai, or the Prado beaches.
Marseille also reveals itself through its markets, cafés, and alleys. From Château Beaupin, it's easy to combine tranquility with exploration, sea with culture, art with nature. You'll enjoy an elegant and welcoming base that opens the doors to a city as diverse as it is captivating.
