L'EAUTEL TOULON CENTRE PORT in Toulon, Provence

L'Eautel Toulon Centre Port has 62 rooms spread across three 17th-century buildings. The interior is decorated on the theme of water and its historic link to the city of Toulon. The hotel has a rooftop pool and solarium plus a treatment room for massages and body care.

L'Équerre, the hotel's bistronomic bar-restaurant, has a fully restored 19th-century glass ceiling attributed to the Eiffel workshops. It serves bold Mediterranean cuisine and holds the Vignobles & Découvertes label. Breakfast is served buffet-style or à la carte and uses local products.

The 62 rooms include double rooms, family rooms, and dorms, all with air conditioning and private bathrooms. Soundproof windows keep outside noise out while offering views of the harbor or square. A children's play area has a PS4, a table tennis table, wooden games, and a reading corner.

The hotel is on the Toulon port, less than a 10-minute walk from the SNCF train station. The Cours Lafayette market, the largest in Provence, is a few streets away. The hotel holds the Accueil Vélo label and provides secure bike storage.

Ferries from the port take guests to the Porquerolles, Port Cros and Paul Ricard Islands. The National Maritime Museum is across the street. The hotel offers a passenger car with driver service for airport transfers.
