Mama Shelter Marseille
Philippe Starck’s whimsical design sense is in top form here. While he’s quite comfortable at the luxury end of things, he excels at bringing smallish, bare-bones spaces to life. And while Mama Shelter Marseille is far from uncomfortable, it’s equally far from palatial. This is the budget boutique done right, with just a touch of plushness in the places where it counts the most — money spent on beds is money well spent, and the in-room iMac serves as the entertainment system.
Mostly it’s about sociability, about buzz, and about keeping its inhabitants entertained. The bar dials down the pretentiousness and aims for a game-room vibe, and the restaurant serves inventive yet accessible Mediterranean cuisine, which is accompanied by live music several nights a week. Pure luxury addicts, perhaps, need not apply, though avoiding the boredom of excessive comfort is partly the point — this hotel, like all the newly spawned Mama Shelters, is anything but dull.
