Considering a move to Marseille? Located on France’s Mediterranean coast, Marseille is a vibrant city with a rich maritime heritage. Explore the historic Old Port and charming Le Panier district. Visit Basilique Notre-Dame de la Garde for stunning city and sea views. Enjoy local seafood dishes, bustling markets and a lively cultural scene. Relax on beautiful beaches or take a boat trip to the stunning Calanques. Marseille offers a unique blend of history, culture and natural beauty!
In the heart of Marseille’s 2nd arrondissement, Marseille La Major offers a choice between studio rooms or flatshares, ideal for students and young professionals. Just minutes from La Joliette and with the metro (line 2) and tram (lines 2 & 3) nearby, getting around is a breeze. Spend your free time shopping at Les Terrasse du Port or exploring the Les Halles de la Major food market.
The residence comes with ultra-fast WiFi, a lounge area to relax in, a fitness area to stay active, bike storage for convenience and a laundry room. And of course, you’ll enjoy amazing views of Marseille Cathedral.
