It's not the Galarie Lafayette in Paris but a nice store. It's going through a whole lot of renovation at the moment and finding the entrance can be a challenge. Staff in here do speak English and quite helpful. They have a big gourmet section as well with a restaurant. Not sure what it's like as we did not try it. All in all an ok shopping experience. read more

Galeries Lafayette - Department Stores Near Me - Marseille, 13

See all

My mom found a Sinequanone outfit that she was profoundly happy with. The salesperson was very attentive and accommodating. As we were exiting the store, the bag sounded the store's alarm. We paused and then were approached by security person. He proceeded to take the bag to a very busy cash register. He balled up the top first and aggressively rubbed it against a metal shelf. He did the same with the matching skirt. Then he proceeded to shove it back into the bag. I stopped him and wanted to see both pieces. He snagged both the top and the skirt, ruining a $240 outfit which was just purchased and wrapped with exquisite care. After speaking with the security man , he refused to help us. We went upstairs to look for a possible exchange. None were available so we had to fight to get a refund for the damaged goods. We waited at least 45 minutes and the 1 cashier who could do the credit. We will NEVER go there again due to the abundant amount of ineptitude and stupidity. It was so very disappointing to see my mom one minute so elated and then two seconds later subjected to such horrid treatment!!! I will make certain to speak honestly regarding the hideous service this department store rendered to my friends who travel and love to spend! read more

I needed an additional Compact Flash card for my camera during my short visit to Marseille, but didn't want to spend too much time to compare prices. Therefore, I was hoping to get a reasonable price in the nearest large shopping mall, Galeries Lafayette. Forutnately, it had a small photo store where I bought a 1GB card. But now that I am back home, it turns out that I paid approx. twice the price that the card would have cost me in other stores in France. So, if you are looking for a resonable price, I can hardly recommend the Galeries Lafayette. read more
