Top of the most beautiful rooftops in Marseille where you can take in the view

The Ultimate Luxury: Le Dantès

The Sofitel Marseille hides its charm well… Even though one would gladly sleep in its 5-star rooms, we head instead towards its large terrace nestled on the 7th floor, at Le Dantès Skylounge (not far from the rooftop of the Rowing Club that we have already introduced you to)! On the menu, a great selection of cocktails and a view of the Mucem and the rest of Marseille from above. Perfect for a nice evening… Shall we stay for the night?

Le plus secret : l'hôtel Hermès

Ce rooftop là, caché entre le Vieux-Port et le Panier, on parie que tu ne le connaissais pas : Direction un autre hôtel, l’Hôtel Hermès, qui offre une vue imprenable sur le Vieux-Port depuis le quartier du Panier. Le bar de l’hôtel garde secrètement sa terrasse ensoleillée à la déco design et la vue complètement ouf… Il ne te reste plus qu’à y grimper pour y boire un verre en admirant la bonne Mère et si t’as un peu trop forcé sur.For the aperitif, you can always book a room, hoping that the view will be the same.

The most exclusive: The Fort Ganteaume

If you see this rooftop in a photo, you'd have a hard time believing it's hidden in Marseille. The Fort Ganteaume, or more commonly known as "Fort Saint Nicolas," has an incredible view of Marseille: From the terrace of the restaurant Les Étoiles du Fort, you can see the Old Port, Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde above, the Mucem, the Fort Saint Jean, and the many facets of Marseille... Not to mention its lovely decor, its garlands, its armchairs.cosy and its cocktail menu. Well, the only minor issue is that if you are not part of the Ministry of Defense or one of the privileged few who have access, you will need to privatize the place for a rooftop evening... Very VIP! When will it open to the public?

The artsy spot: MAMO

Nicknamed "The Madman's House", the Cité Radieuse also has a contemporary art center on its rooftop, the MAMO, since 2013, as well as a preschool and a gymnasium.all adorned with sculptures by French designer Ora-Ïto and with a view of the Calanques and the sea. A rooftop Swiss army knife, if you will.
