Studio Room

La Girafe Studio – Apartment-style comfort in 20 m²

A functional space designed for independence

La Girafe's Studio is not a standard hotel room with a hastily added kitchen corner. It's a space entirely designed around your rhythm, whether you're staying one night between two meetings or an entire week on assignment in Marseille East.

The fully equipped kitchenette lets you prepare your own meals without relying on restaurants: refrigerator, microwave, hob, full set of cookware and dishes. In the evening, reheat what you picked up at the Aubagne market. In the morning, your coffee is ready before the breakfast buffet even opens at 7:00 am.

The work desk is positioned for genuine productivity, natural light, enough surface for a laptop and your documents, stable high-speed Wi-Fi. Not a token workspace: a real one.

Amenities designed for everyday comfort

Every detail in the Studio has been chosen so your stay feels like real life, not just a stopover:

Double bed with premium bedding,  to truly recover after long days

Reversible air conditioning, cool in summer, warm in winter

Flat-screen TV, to unwind in the evenings

High-speed Wi-Fi, for video calls, large files, streaming

Fully equipped kitchenette, refrigerator, microwave, hob, dishes

Private bathroom, shower, towels, basic toiletries provided

Wardrobe, to properly unpack even on a short stay

Free secured parking, code-gated, night security guard on site

A homemade breakfast, the best start to your day

When you book your Studio at Appart'Hôtel La Girafe, you have access every morning to our continental breakfast buffet, served from 7:00 am to 10:30 am (7:30 am to 10:30 am on weekends):

Freshly baked pastries and bread · Seasonal fruit and homemade cake · Free-range eggs, cheese and charcuterie · Yoghurts, jams, nut butter, almond paste · Hot drinks of your choice · Fresh fruit juice

This is not a standardised hotel breakfast. It's a moment, prepared every morning by our team with fresh, seasonal ingredients. Our guests mention it in their reviews without fail. You'll understand why on your first morning.

Who is La Girafe's Studio for?

On a business trip to Marseille East or Aubagne?

The Studio is the go-to accommodation for professionals on assignment in the eastern Marseille and Aubagne business districts. A 5-minute walk from La Penne-sur-Huveaune TER station, you can reach Marseille city centre in 20 minutes and Aubagne in 5 minutes, without a car.

Stable Wi-Fi for video meetings, a dedicated desk for evening work, a kitchenette to avoid eating out every meal, free parking for your company car, the Studio ticks every box on a sensible expense report. Better rated than the Novotel Marseille East. Less expensive. And with a character no chain hotel can offer.
