Location scouting // A retro-design filming location in Marseille

Looking for a unique setting full of life and character for your audiovisual projects? This hotel, located in the Endoume district of Marseille, is much more than just a hotel: it’s a true blend of Mediterranean charm, retro design, and urban authenticity.

A retro-chic décor with personality

Perched above the iconic bar-restaurant of the same name, the hotel’s four rooms each create a universe of their own.

The Yellow Room, bright and warm, evokes Provence and its sun-drenched colors. The Green Room, inspired by the tropics of the 1950s, plays with striped patterns and vintage furniture. The Pink Room, romantic and rococo, adds an elegant and refined touch. The Blue Room, deeply Mediterranean, combines shades of blue with terracotta accents.

Each room becomes a natural set for your shoots, whether music videos, photo sessions, films, or commercials.

A lively and authentic atmosphere

On the ground floor, the bar La Relève, a Marseille institution since 1944, adds a convivial and popular vibe, perfect for capturing the essence of a neighborhood bistro. With its zinc counter, weathered walls, and simple, generous dishes, the place exudes the true spirit of Marseille and provides a raw backdrop, ideal for urban or everyday life scenes.

Accessibility and logistics

Located just a short walk from the Old Port and the Saint-Victor district, the hotel enjoys a central location, easily accessible for film crews. Flexible spaces allow productions to adapt the setting to their needs, from intimate shoots in the rooms to livelier scenes in the bar.

Why choose La Relève for your shoots?

  • A unique setting: a mix of retro design, vintage spirit, and Mediterranean charm.
  • Varied atmospheres: four distinctively styled rooms plus an authentic neighborhood bar.
  • A central location: right in the heart of Marseille, close to the Old Port.
  • The Marseille spirit: lively, warm, both chic and popular.
