BOUTIQUE BOLTHOLES PAY HOMAGE TO AN ANCIENT HISTORY AND THE SEA IN THIS SOUTHERN FRENCH CITY

WHERE TO STAY: Marseille

Tuba Club

In France's oldest city, celebrated for an ethnic diversity that stems from centuries of trade, a growing number of boutique hotels are reflecting the local culture and connection to the sea. One of the spots bringing new energy to the ancient city of Marseille is Tuba Club, set on the waterfront in the neighbourhood of Les Goudes.

The 2020 opening took over a century-old building, which started life as a restaurant before becoming a diving club frequented by legendary French free diver Jacques Mayol in the 1980s. Fast-forward to today, and it's been completely reborn as a stylish, sea-facing retreat, designed by a local collective of friends with backgrounds in cinema, architecture and fashion.
