Coliving | Hotel | Coworking | Restaurant | Sports | Events
The Babel Community welcomes you to the heart of Marseille at its two ideally located residences, in the Old Port and on Rue de la République!
These are true living spaces—hybrid and vibrant—offering turnkey coliving apartments and flexible coworking spaces. Residents enjoy a wide range of common areas: a restaurant, a gym, meeting rooms, a film club, a terrace… And a range of à la carte services (housekeeping, laundry kit, concierge) to simplify daily life and free up time for what really matters.
With social gatherings, events, and activities, life at The Babel Community fosters interaction and connection: the perfect starting point for discovering Marseille!
An emblematic thoroughfare in the city of Marseille, rue de la république links the Vieux-Port and its many entertainment venues to the Joliette business district. Rue de la république is home to many shops, including a Monoprix just across the street, and is close to Les Terrasses du Port and Les Docks shopping centers. Climb a few steps and you find yourself in the picturesque Panier district.
In Marseille, the city centre is the VIEUX-PORT! It is here that we meet to have lunch on the terrace, to go shopping, to take the shuttle to reach the FRIOUL islands and the Château d’If or simply to stroll. Located halfway between the Old Port and the Prefecture, the residence is ideally situated in the heart of the city’s most lively district.
