About Us
La Girelle, the name of our hostel, is the name of a fish that lives in the sea of Les Calanques National Park. It is a classic local dish, eaten fried or in soup. We have a 5-generation history in Marseille, starting with the adventure of a fisherman who built a hut in Les Calanques with 12 other families. Then our family set up a gasthaus in 1986, and in 1996 the first hostel in Marseille. Today, we offer accommodation with a family, simple and human philosophy. We love Marseille and Provence, that’s why we like to make recommendations to our guests. We also like to travel, so welcoming tourists from all over the world gives us an enriching experience.!
Our concept !
