Description

By the beaches in the centre of Sausset-les-Pins on the Cote Bleue, the Paradou Mediterranee, BW Signature Collection, Sausset les Pins, France, offers air-conditioned rooms with private balconies in a relaxed seaside setting an easy drive from Marseille. Free private parking makes it simple to explore the coast by car, and the hotel's restaurant serves fresh seasonal produce, with private balconies for taking in the sea air and an attentive team on hand around the clock. The setting opens onto a quieter, less-trodden stretch of the Provençal shore. The Cote Bleue is the rugged blue coast west of Marseille, a string of fishing harbours, rocky coves, and little train stations strung along the cliffs, with the Chateau Charles-Roux nearby and the city of Marseille and the calanques within easy reach. A coastal walking path threads the rocks between the harbours, and out front the Mediterranean stretches away toward the islands of the Cote Bleue.

"Lovely hotel"
zannabird, 07 Septembre 2026

Lovely hotel overlooking the sea, staff were all very friendly and welcoming. Room comfortable , nice swimming pool area with towels provided. Enjoyable breakfast. Would definitely stay again

"Beautiful hotel and stunning location."
chesterboy3109, 05 Octobre 2025

We stayed two nights in late September and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The front desk staff were friendly and very patient in providing local recommendations and helping us buy train tickets for a day trip to Marseille. The hotel is just across a road that runs alongside the Mediterranean. We enjoyed stunning sunsets from our balcony and lovely walks along a raised sidewalk near the water's edge. Sausset-Les-Pins is a beautiful town. There are plenty of good restaurants with outdoor seating and excellent bakeries within walking distance of the hotel. There is a nice outside pool and deck at the hotel that overlooks the Med. The weather was too cool for us to use the pool or go swimming at the beach, but we did see some swimmers in the Med. Be aware that the beach is rocky not sandy. My husband and I loved our stay at Paradou. We will definitely be back! My

"No better place in Sausset"
Jacques H, 23 Septembre 2024

Perfectly located , with well equipped and nice balcony rooms . Great free parking and a very nice pool area. The lobby and bar/restauraant areas are most spacious and pleasant. Breakfast buffet is generous and served by a most freindly waiter. The whole reception team is most friendly and welcoming and the hotel is within steps of an array of lovely restaurants in the harbour. We stayed only one night but could have easily spend more time there.

"Perfect spot to visit the Camargue and Mediterranean coast."
Thelma T, 02 Juin 2024

We had an excellent 3 night stay at the Paradou. The staff were incredibly friendly and really helpful. Many thanks to the chef who ensured I had no problems being lactose intolerant when ordering dinner and adapting the choices on offer for me! The breakfast buffet catered for a variety of tastes and even included soya milk, which was wonderful for me!! Our room was very comfortable with a beautiful sea view from the balcony. The whole hotel has a very relaxed feel about it with very comfortable chairs to sit in around the dining area and outside. It's the perfect spot to visit the South coast away from the large and busy cities.

"BW seaside hotel outside Marsielle"
Christopher J, 08 Juillet 2023

I call this hotel unpretentious as a term of highest praise. Excellent quality without an attitude. The staff graciously spoke French with me until I couldn't and then spoke perfect English too. Igor in particular was helpful. Breakfast was 15 euros/person, and very good. The restaurant was even better. Some of the freshest fish I've eaten, really delicious. Lunch was always packed with business meetings. The hotel room was small but designed with nooks for luggage and clothes, a little fridge and a good shower, with an ocean view balcony as advertised at the website. A/C did well enough for the humid climate. The little town of Sausset-Les-Pins is quaint and a nice break from bigger cities/tourist attractions. It was the perfect break for us.

"Good location - great service"
kidermit, 07 Septembre 2022

It was very nice stay, in a property that has prime location for that area. Easy access to be beach and even though right on a street noise levels were not an issue. Room was a bit small for the value it offers and even though we had partial sea view, the views were still great. Great asset for this property is amazing service, from most of the staff. Very friendly and knowledgeable, happy to accommodate special requests and always serve clients with a smile. Value for money was not quite what we expected, but still it was a good property and a great stay.

"Booking.com customers beware! You are second rate citysens"
Uniqmo, 27 Juillet 2022

I booked 2 triple rooms and one single room for 2 nights (20/21st July 2022) back in February 2022 to brought booking com. After the pandemic's uncertainties with travel abroad I took advantage of their free cancellation policy. I was aware that I wouldn't be able to cancel foc within 72 hours of our visit which was fine by me. Although booking.com stated on my reservation that payment would be dealt with at the property I was shocked to find that my credit card was debited for the full amount of the three rooms fo the 2 nights 72 hours before arrival. This has never happened before with booking.com.Upon arrival we got told that this was nothing to do with them but the fat of booking.ckm. Having therefore taken out money they then informed us they only had one triple room available and that our other 7 years old grandson would have to sleep on a low to the ground pump up bed or bunk up in the single room with his uncle! I was told this wouldn't have happened if we had booked direct with them instead of booking.com!! A couple with a child arrived at that moment and within seconds were shown to their triple room! They had our money, so we stayed and accepted their offer of a hundred euros rebate. It all smelled a bit fishy to us but we made the best of a bad job and still enjoyed the dightful port of Sausset and the nearby beaches.

"Superb location, perfect for families"
currypasty, 12 Août 2018

Sausset les Pins is a lovely little seaside town and this hotel is the only one in here. Perfectly located next to the harbour and rocky beach. Would recommend for families and couples alike. The hotel is a little dated however is perfectly clean and has a balcony on every room which is unusual in this price range. Breakfast is basic for the cost, however you can get a continental (not buffet) for 6 euros which is well priced - this isn't advertised on the website. Pool is spotlessly clean and not busy except for after 4pm as per all pools in France. Thoroughly recommended hideaway!

"Son's Wedding trip"
chrishaworth123, 03 Juin 2018

One books the Best Western because its good value, acceptable accommodation. What I hadn't expected was the utterly superb food. Every meal is a delight - tartare de boeuf, turbot grille, and many, many other dishes - coupled with good value, delicious red wine. Excellent, friendly service and an unhurried atmosphere - very highly recommended and a hidden gem!

"Nice hotel close to the ocean."
Bjoern A, 23 Juillet 2017

From the outside Hotel Paradou looks very good with a large parking place. It is situated at outer end of the port and the ocean just outside. The road is passing just outside the hotel, but not much annoyance (except for the bikes). The reception looks ok and further on, there's a nice bar. To the left it is a seating group and beside that it is a billiard table and a manual football play. Behind all this (on the left side) is the restaurant with table outside too. The staff are kind and helpful to you. Just outside this room is the pool with sun beds. What I missed was a parasol. It is hot in the sun. My room was at the second floor with a nice balcony. The room was of fair side. So was the bathroom, with a shower and also Hans Grohe armature. It looked neat. At the balcony I sat at the afternoon or evening enjoying the view to the inlet of the port and the ocean. You can also see the rocks of Marseille in background. But, when I was there, there was a circus/playground just in front of you at the port. It was a little annoying, but it stopped at midnight. The town is modern with good roads, but no sand beaches, only those with small round stones. What would this town have been with sand beaches.!

"Very bad first impression - unfortunately"
Birgit N, 15 Juillet 2017

As a frequently traveller (having approx 120 nights Per Year in hotels) I booked a 3 nights stay as part of the vacation. First impression you always get is arrival at the reception desk; was met by a very unfriendly lady asking if we really wanted a 2 single bed room as requested? Was willing to compromise for a double bed as long as we still had a balcony - got room 126 a double bed and a single bed and a balcony for 1 person with 1 chair less than 1 meter to the roof of the next building! Down to reception to complain - with an even more unfriendly lady (the same) giving us a Key for room 133 informing that we only reserved for the first floor! However, at reservation there were no indication if we wanted first or second floor! Now we got a double bed room. When complaining to the travel agent the lady informed that we volunteerly accepted a double bed - but the first room was also a double bed!!! Second evening the same lady was on duty. She noticed we came to the bar and only I was there - but immediately she left, coming back 5 minutes later where a new couple was waiting in the bar; she went to them immediately to serve them completely ignoring me - again 5 minutes later I kindly asked for some icecupes for the water - and it was definitely not with a smile as she decided to go into the reception to support another client with the payment (also arriving after us) before she decided to give us some icecupes. Properly one of the worst experience in my 20 years of travelling 150 days Per Year. I thought Best Western could do better. The reason for evaluating this to 2 is only because of the rest of the staff.

"Great value hotel on the seaside"
JW S, 15 Août 2016

We stayed here for 2 nights and we had the best time ever. The hotel itself is not very fancy, but the rooms are clean and comfortable, and they all have a balcony. The bed was good and the bathroom with shower was also good. The only thing I couldn't appreciate was the toilet immediately behind the bathroom door which was a little too cramped. The hotel also has a nice bar and a nice terrace where you can have your breakfast and a clean, nice pool. The sea is on the other side of the street and so is the harbor. And the beaches and center of this little cute, sleepy town are within walking distance (3-5 minutes walk). But the best of this cute hotel was the friendliness of the staff. We really appreciated the customer focused approach. If we come back to Sausset-les-Pins we will definitely stay here again

"Ideal location on see front"
ivannParis, 30 Juillet 2016

The welcome is probably a bit "coldish" and there is little specific soul in this hotel. Having said that, I had a room with balcony and (a little) see view. It was fine. Given the location and the charming spot I would recommend the place.

"Great Location by the Mediterranean"
melendz, 02 Juin 2016

The hotel is greatly situated within walking distance of the beach and many good restaurants. Service is very friendly and personal, and the staff speaks English. Dis not try the restaurant for dinner, but the breakfast included in the rate was very good.

"Quite good hotel at the seaside"
Ralph K, 08 Octobre 2015

Hotel is just beside the seaside, however, no beach for swimming is close by. The hotel in general needs a bit redecoration. The rooms were clean but a bit small. Little balcony facing to the sea. - The brakfast buffet was OK, but not more. Coffe from a coffemaker. Wehn the scrabled eggs were out I asked for new one. They just took the old form with incrusted old egs and put the new ones on top - could be much better. - All in all it is more a hotel for one night and the price with 127 € a bit too high.

"Very pleasant time"
Larina N, 02 Octobre 2015

My husband and I spent 3 nights in this quiet hotel and we will be happy to return again. The rooms are nice and clean, with a wonderful view. We felt very relaxed in there. The offered continental breakfast is what we needed to start the day. Thank you guys!

"Businness trip"
Stifmaister, 21 Septembre 2015

We spent one night here during our South France tour, nice location right on the sea and close to all the restarants which are located in the port area. The room was nice, nothing too cool or new. The patio outside is a nice place where to have breakfast, the swimmingpool is a joke.

"Ok"
janhooper50, 15 Janvier 2015

We stayed for two nights in September and found the hotel adequate. It really needs an update as the whole place looks tired and shabby. Staff we found pleasant enough. Only ate breakfast here as it was included in the price, but it was nothing special. We had sea view room which was also just ok. Parking in the hotel car park was a bit of a problem, the hotel seemed to be running conferences and the car park got very full, making it either difficult to find a parking space or having to manoeuvre out between haphazardly parked vehicles.

"Short Trip to see Family"
Christopher B, 17 Novembre 2014

Nice hotel well situated in the middle of town looking over harbour and sea. Did not eat in restaurant just breakfast which is a buffet type which was adequate. Staff are friendly No English speaking TV channels available.

"Disappointing"
MikeJL59, 27 Septembre 2014

Beside the sea. Near a small port. A pool. Free parking. It should have been at least very good, but it wasn't. The "seaview room" had more of a view of the roof of reception than the sea and really all you could see was the horizon (see picture). The room was small and cramped as was the balcony with cheap plastic seats. The air-con was ancient and could not be varied from the set temperature....someone had seized the control. The en-suite shower room was slightly better. The pool was small and cold and quite deep in places. There few loungers were largely occupied; might be an issue it the place had been busier. The towels for the pool area were much better than the room towels. Locally there is a nice small harbour with boats available for hire but the seashore area is very rocky. It is popular with scuba divers but not really suitable for families Breakfast was a help yourself buffet with fairly standard offerings. Check out- was a bit of shambles but was sorted with politeness. Overall the hotel needs some investment if it is to succeed but the area is not really suited to those seeking a seaside holiday unless looking at the sea from a promenade is all you want, or scuba diving. We won't be in a rush back.

"Adequate but small room and terrace."
RichMelBarnet, 14 Septembre 2014

We stayed here for just one night due to its proximity to the airport. The location is excellent and the welcome was friendly and professional (although, see post below, had we been offered a six euro breakfast rather than twelve euro we may have eaten in the hotel rather than going to the nearest cafe). Our only disappointment was the size of the room and terrace, judging by the fact that we only had coffee making facilities for one person I suspect we had been given a room that was normally designed for single travellers, however, the bed was big enough and it was only one night so we did not quibble over this. The views over the town and across to Marseille were spectacular but otherwise the hotel was adequate without any aspect lending itself to superlatives.

"ok, nothing special"
Michel C, 05 Septembre 2014

very nice in summer with the nearby beach and swimming pool rooms are very basic, no good sound insulation. breakfast is poor, standard quality, not much choice wifi is adequate but not fast staff very helpfull and friendly
