La Soleillade Aixoise

La Soleillade Aixoise offers four categories: a Deluxe Suite, a Deluxe Studio, a Double Room with Garden View and a Deluxe Room. The rooms measure from 18 to 39 m² and all have a private bathroom, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a terrace. They also include a coffee machine and minibar. The accommodation overlooks the garden; the three largest categories also have a view of the swimming pool.

The Deluxe Suite and Deluxe Studio stand out for their separate living area and independent bedroom. The suite is the largest, at 39 m², while the studio measures 35 m². Both have a bath and a walk-in shower. The Double Room with Garden View offers 23 m² and a view of the swimming pool, unlike the more compact Deluxe Room, which overlooks the garden. The latter has a shower or bath and is on a floor accessible only by stairs.

The outdoor areas include a garden, a sun terrace, outdoor furniture and a picnic area. Barbecue facilities and a table tennis table are also available. Guests wishing to explore the area can take part in cooking classes or tours about local culture. A shared lounge with a TV completes the communal spaces.

The rooms have a private bathroom, toiletries, towels and a hairdryer. A coffee machine, electric kettle and refrigerator are among the facilities provided. Tea and coffee may also be supplied with the minibar; fruit and wine or champagne are available too. The flat-screen TV offers streaming services, and internet access is free. Massages, beauty treatments and yoga classes are available. A shuttle service and airport shuttle are offered, with the airport shuttle available for an additional charge.

Aix-en-Provence combines the elegance of a Provençal city with a lively cultural scene. Its old town is easy to explore on foot, amid warm-toned façades, shady squares and town houses. The plane-tree-lined Cours Mirabeau, with its fountains, sets the tone; the markets and lanes of the historic district invite you to take your time. La Soleillade Aixoise is on route de Saint-Canadet, in an area where the urban surroundings give way to Provençal landscapes. A car makes it easier to travel between the property, the centre and nearby attractions.

Aix’s heritage can be explored at the Musée Granet, dedicated to fine art, and the Atelier Cézanne, housed in the painter’s former studio. Terrain des Peintres is a viewpoint associated with the Sainte-Victoire mountain scenes that inspired Cézanne. Further afield, Château La Coste brings together contemporary art, architecture and a wine estate. Aix-en-Provence and Meyrargues railway stations are both 8 km away; Marseille-Provence Airport is 25 km away. The guest house offers an airport shuttle for an additional charge.

Spring and autumn are good times for walks around the city, when temperatures are milder and the terraces are pleasant. In summer, plan visits to the centre for early morning, then take a break in the shade or by the swimming pool. One day could combine Aix’s fountains and markets with a visit focused on Cézanne; another, the paths and landscapes of Sainte-Victoire. The region follows the rhythm of Provençal markets and the late-summer and autumn grape harvests. In winter, museums, studios and cafés let you enjoy the city whatever the weather.
