Q. I'm arriving at Marseille Province airport at 10:15 pm and I figure by the time I get off the plane and go through customs, etc. it will bet like 11:30. I'm planning on taking a train to Cannes early the next day so I'm wondering if anyone knows if I can stay overnight at Marseille airport after I land??? Thanks! Asked by MK - Mon May 4 19:29:21 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. If memory serves, there is not a hotel in the Marseilles airport. There are however several between the airport and the railroad station. I would suggest you get as close as you can to the rail station. There is a New Hotel Select at the St. Charles Station, and a a couple others in the immediate area. Generally these are in the 2 to 3 star range. When traveling and tired, I like to push forward am much as I can. Good luck. Answered by Spike - Mon May 4 19:57:43 2009 Where is the best hotel and place to eat in Marseille France.? Q.
