HOTEL REVIEW


a stage for live entertainment, a display of suspended musical instruments, and a 4m- long table football game that can be played by up to 16 people. Even the meeting space has its own ping-pong table as a welcome break from the tedium of flip charts and screens. Exposed concrete walls and aluminium pendant lights form the industrial backdrop throughout, while script on the ceiling and floor adds interest. Furniture ranges from high-backed thrones and long communal tables, to woven dining chairs from Starck’s Play with Dedon collection. The restaurant serves up simple Mediterranean fare created by chefs Alain Senderens and Jerome Banctel without resorting to the cliché of traditional Marseille dishes. The hotel also has its own pizzeria with fun Pop Art-style branding adorning the chairs and staff aprons.


The 127 guestrooms are similar to those in the Mama Shelter Paris, but draw new energy


through the colours of the Mediterranean. Rooms fall into six categories, the smallest being the Mama Double measuring 15- 17m2


and starting at a reasonable €69. Due to their compact size, interiors here are more subdued with a neutral backdrop, an abundance of natural daylight and oversized mirrors. The industrial feel continues with the use of concrete, wood and metal. Larger rooms, including the Mama Deluxe Double, Mama Family and Mama Suite measuring 45m2


, offer more space to re-introduce the


bold prints and patterns seen elsewhere. All rooms are equipped with a 27-inch iMac with TV, radio, internet and free WiFi access, on- demand movies, minibar and a desk. While Mama Shelter is adapting to its


newest location, the team are ramping up its roll out with properties in Bordeaux and Lyon due to come on line in the next six months. In addition, the brand is soon to make its international debut in Istanbul, Turkey.
