Aix-en-Provence combines old streets, shady squares and pale stone façades in a lively Provençal atmosphere throughout the year. The lanes of the historic district open onto squares lined with cafés, fountains and town houses. Cours Mirabeau is one of the main promenades, while the markets give the city a particularly lively feel in the morning. Visitors can also explore museums and places associated with Cézanne, or take a break on a terrace or in a garden.

Pavillon Vendôme houses a museum and a formal French garden; Musée Granet displays art collections in a former priory. Atelier Cézanne, north of the historic centre, lets you explore the painter’s workspace. Cathédrale Saint-Sauveur brings together several architectural styles and is worth visiting for its cloister. Aix-en-Provence railway station is 800 m from the hotel. Marseille-Provence Airport is 20 km away, and the recommended parking options for drivers are the Rotonde and Pasteurs car parks, less than a ten-minute walk away.

A day in Aix can begin at the market on place Richelme, continue through the old lanes and end on cours Mirabeau. In spring and autumn, the temperatures are pleasant for visiting museums and strolling outdoors; in summer, it is better to make the most of the cooler hours for walks. Montagne Sainte-Victoire, painted by Cézanne, has walking trails in the surrounding area. Excursions in the Aix countryside let you discover Provençal landscapes while using the city as your base.
