Hôtel Cézanne Boutique-Hôtel

We spent 5 nights at Hotel Cezanne as one of the stops in our 2 week holiday in France. The entire experience was amazing. We were greeted at check in by Serena who not only told us that our room was ready (great news after a 15 hour flight) but also that we had been upgraded to a junior suite. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The hotel itself is in a great location, just 100m from the train station and less than 10 min walk from the main thoroughfare, Cours Mirabeau. Most of the town centre with key attractions is walkable from the hotel. It is also just off the busy area so it is an ideal location to have a restful stay and yet be able to have the rest of the town within walking distance. The hotel serves an impressive western breakfast comprising hot dishes (eggs, bacon, sausages, sautéed mushrooms, etc.), an amazing spread of breads and pastries, cereals with an assortment of dried fruit and nut that you can add, juices, and coffee and tea. The staff are friendly and are always at hand to help. We arrived from Lyon Saint Exupery airport via TGV to Aix-en-Provence TGV station, and then via an Uber to the hotel. Uber rides are generally expensive. On hindsight, a better option would be to take the TGV from Lyon Saint Exupery to Marseilles, and then switch to an SNEF train direct to Aix-en-Provence (station just 100m from the hotel). This would be the most convenient and cost-effective, especially if you have luggage to lug along.

Beautiful hotel located in a perfect place to discover Aix. A cozy design hotel with a provencal touch located 5 min walk from the center with many stores, bars and restaurants. The rooms are comfortable and very clean. The staff is friendly and helpful with any question. The breakfast buffet is standard but ample in its offerings. Pleasant to be offered some free drinks in the room. Perfect hotel to discover the city with very good value for money.

About 8-12 mins walk into the center of Aix. It was quite convenient to get in out of Aix if you want to drive around. They have private parking for 25 euros/day which I found helpful to not stress about finding parking. The rooms are exceptionally clean. The doubles are a bit sad and bare bones but the junior suite is quite large and airy. For a longer stay I would go for the suite. Staff was always available and very attentive and kind. I would stay here again if ever in Aix.

Breakfast food choice was very good. Location was excellent being close to the old town but in a quieter area. We loved the garden area, it was pretty and very peaceful. The main thing we liked about this hotel was the staff. Everyone was so pleasant and friendly to us, from Muhammad who checked us in to Omar who looked after us extremely well in the garden.

The personnel were professional and helpful, the bed was comfortable and the room was clean.
