Aix-en-Provence combines a lively historic centre, warm-toned façades and numerous fountains with a distinctly Provençal atmosphere. The HoPe is on Route de Puyricard, north of the city, in an area less densely built-up than the central streets. This location may suit travellers looking for an apartment with a garden and pool while visiting Aix and its surroundings. Explore the centre on foot, among its squares, markets and old streets.

The Atelier Cézanne, dedicated to the painter’s life and work, is 3.4 km away. The Terrain des Peintres offers a viewpoint over landscapes associated with Cézanne’s depictions of Mont Sainte-Victoire. The Musée Granet displays art collections in the city centre, 4.9 km away. Aix-en-Provence railway station is also 4.9 km away, while Marseille-Provence Airport is 21 km away. A car makes it easier to travel from the Puyricard area and visit nearby villages.

In spring and autumn, the temperatures are pleasant for exploring the city centre and visiting museums. In summer, the hot days are a good reason to plan outdoor visits for the morning, then enjoy the shade or the pool during the sunniest hours. You can combine a stroll through the old town with a visit dedicated to Cézanne and an outing to the landscapes of Sainte-Victoire. The markets and lively squares also offer a glimpse of everyday life in Aix.
