Sports fields next door, metro station 900 metres away. Quiet, secure environment. Backpackers, individuals and families welcome. Shared sanitary facilities for all rooms.
Our Green Key youth hostel, housed in a Second Empire-style château, is located on the heights of Marseille in a wooded, peaceful setting just 900 metres from the ‘La Fourragère’ metro station, itself about 15 minutes from the Vieux Port and the historic centre of Marseille.
Our secure parking area can accommodate 2 buses and/or vans with trailers. Our shaded terrace lets you enjoy the garden over a drink or a meal that you can prepare yourself in our self-service kitchen.
Our aim is to obtain tourism and disability certification (particularly for the visually impaired, which is currently being developed).
Camping: 20 pitches for tents complete the accommodation on offer (the price per night includes breakfast). The hostel rents tents for 2 people if required.
A coach can park in the cul-de-sac 300 metres from the hostel.
Our multi-purpose ‘parquet’ room (equipped with video-projector, sound system and small theatre stage) can be used to organise ‘transplanted’ green classes, general meetings, training days, team-building or events, with 80 seats in show mode.
However, due to the configuration of the premises, it is not possible to organise evening events after 10pm.
Meals and picnics are available for groups of more than 25 people on request 15 days in advance.
Basketball, handball, football, parkour and petanque courts right next to the hostel.
Compulsory annual membership: €2 per person, €5 per family.
Situated on the GR 2013 and, more recently, on a cycle path, our hostel is ideally located for hiking the paths of Marcel Pagnol or the calanques from Marseille to Cassis, just 30 minutes away by car.
Despite the size of our building, our small team contributes to the friendly, independent atmosphere that keeps so many regulars coming back year after year. We look forward to welcoming you soon..
