LES VOLETS ROUGES - Hôtel Cassis - Situé dans le Parc National des Calanques - Parking Gratuit

This place is perfect if you want to do some hiking in the Parc National des Calanques. The staff were very friendly and explained how to get to the calanques, where to start and what to avoid. We stayed one night however we'll return to complete the rest of the hikes, the rooms are small however clean. Perfect if you plan to spend time outdoors

We chose Les Volets Rouges specifically because of its proximity to Le Parc National des Calanques, and for that purpose, the location was absolutely perfect. It made starting our daily hikes incredibly easy, which was the main goal of our trip. The hotel itself is lovely, and we enjoyed its general charm and convenience. However, we found the room to be very small, which made movement a little difficult with luggage. Also, we could easily hear the people in the next room, which affected our sense of privacy. While the noise and small size were disappointing, the superb location and the welcoming atmosphere of the hotel mean we'd still recommend it to keen hikers—just bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper!

Room size noise

It included parking.

Bathroom was tiny, no closets or even luggage rack to put your things.

* Positives: Serene environment, good breakfast.

Check-in instructions were clear, as we arrived late (10 PM) and had to use the online check-in process. However, upon arrival, we found the gate closed with no visible keypad, just a lit-up bell. After trying to figure it out, we called the number, and the gate opened—but we were immediately greeted by an aggressive staff member shouting at us for calling the phone no The staff's reaction was excessive and made us feel uncomfortable. If this had happened in the US, it would’ve felt threatening. We later apologised, but honestly, the owner should address the staff’s unprofessional behavior and also fix the keypad issue. In the dark, the keypad on the outside had no lights, and that's something they need to improve. That said, the rest of the stay went smoothly: * Negatives: USB ports didn’t work, Wi-Fi was patchy, towels weren’t replaced, and Uber wasn’t available (but local taxis can be arranged). Would I recommend? It's a peaceful place, but the staff's attitude left a bad impression, and it made us uneasy about returning.
