Aix-en-Provence is a Provençal city of plane tree-lined avenues, fountains and historic façades. The hotel is south of the centre, in a more open area where the garden and swimming pool offer a break from the busy streets. You can explore the old town on foot, between Cours Mirabeau, shady squares and markets; art lovers can visit places around the city associated with Paul Cézanne.

The Musée Granet, which is devoted in part to fine art, is 1.8 km away. Atelier Cézanne, the painter's former home and studio, is 3.3 km away, while Fondation Vasarely, with its geometric and monumental works, is 3.4 km away. Parc de la Torse has walking paths through a leafy setting. The A8 is about a two-minute drive away, and Marseille-Provence Airport is 20 km away. Aix-en-Provence train station is 2 km away.

Spring and autumn are good seasons for exploring on foot, with milder temperatures often making it more comfortable to visit the centre and museums. Summer days are hot, and shady squares make welcome stops between visits; the swimming pool offers a chance to relax back at the hotel. A day might take in the morning market, fountains and old streets, followed by a visit focused on Cézanne. A car makes it easier to explore Provençal landscapes and nearby villages.
