Aix-en-Provence is a Provençal city known for its warm-toned façades, fountains and plane-tree-lined streets. Le Domaine Gao is in the Les Milles area, west of the city centre, in surroundings where major roads meet residential neighbourhoods. This address suits visitors who want to explore Aix while staying away from its busiest streets. A car makes it easier to travel between the hotel, the centre and nearby attractions.

The Camp des Milles Memorial Site tells the story of the former internment and deportation camp housed in a brickworks. The Vasarely Foundation displays the artist's monumental geometric works in a building designed for them. In the centre, the Musée Granet houses collections of paintings and sculpture, while Atelier Cézanne offers a glimpse of the painter's workplace. Cours Mirabeau, the squares and the markets give you a sense of life in Aix; the railway station and major roads make excursions around the region easier.

For a day in the city, you can explore the historic centre on foot, visit a museum and then stop at a shady square. The surrounding area is also suitable for trips to the Provençal countryside and for walks, depending on the season and weather. Spring and autumn are pleasant for walking and sightseeing, while in summer you can plan visits for the morning and enjoy the swimming pool during the hottest hours. The coastal beaches are accessible by car for a day trip.
