Family-friendly Hotels in Aix-en-Provence

The hotel is good, the cost of Ctrip is too high, the domestic departure time set more than 2100 hotels, to the hotel will become more than 1800. The difference between the hotel in Geneva has reached more than 400 RMB. It is recommended that you can cancel it. Go to the hotel in advance and buy it at the front desk after refunding.

We just returned from an overnight stay at the hotel and were very glad it was only one night. The August review below is not reality as we experienced it. Rather the July review was basically our experience. This hotel should not be open and the staff all know it. As described, this is a construction site. The emails we received in advance in no way accurately conveyed the extent of the situation. When we checked in along with a friend, the AC in her room wasn’t working. She called to complain and someone showed up with a fan. She finally got them to give her a different room. Our room was in the building adjacent to the pool. When we returned at 8:30PM after dinner out (our booked dinner at the hotel was canceled as a result of thunderstorms since it had to be outdoors), there were no lights from the driveway around the pool to the entrance to our building. The paved area around the pool was flooded. Breakfast was delivered to our room but there was not any comfortable or reasonable place to put the food for two of us to eat. One positive note - it was delivered on time and was fine. Bottom line: the staff is doing the best they can but clearly the corporation who owns and manages this hotel only wants the money and isn’t concerned about their reputation.

We recently spent four nights here and i can't rave enough! We made reservations primarily based on reviews we read here and we thought the hotel was even better. We were traveling as a family with our teenage daughter and booked the junior suite which was perfect. A large room by European standards and it was perfect. We had a fold out twin bed and we could move around the room with it open. The location was great - close enough to everything but not overrun by street noise and busy crowds. We walked to dinner every night and one restaurant was better than the next. We spend one day in Aix-en-Provence and did day trips the other days. There was so much to see and visit in the area but more about the hotel. The front desk staff were so nice and so helpful. Mostly younger but so attentive and helpful making reservations for us, changing tickets to a site we booked when our daughter wasn't feeling well and offering great suggestions. The breakfast was also a big hit. I would recommend getting it included. There is a beautiful outdoor garden to eat in. Plentiful food and great variety from bacon and eggs to a continental breakfast of pastries and fruit. Lastly, we booked the parking spot which was a big plus. It was a short walk from the lobby and it was great to not have to worry when we returned from our adventures about where to park. Can't recommend enough. We look forward to returning.

Is this the worst hotel I’ve stayed at? No. Was it good? Also no. Let me start with the positives. The property is gorgeously landscaped. You feel like you’re in a private oasis. The pool is very nice, but during peak summer hours the chairs are scarce. The breakfast buffet was fine. Restaurant staff were friendly enough. And on to the bad. I can’t believe this is a 5-star hotel. It’s overpriced and the rooms feel dated. The front desk employees were the least friendly we encountered during our 2+ week excursion in France. One evening we requested in advance that a taxi be called to take us into town. The gentleman at the desk said no problem. When we came back down to the lobby an hour later, a different woman was at the desk and said she had no record of our reservation and instead of offering to immediately call a taxi, sort of argued with us and continued to insist no such reservation existed. We were given the odd 2-story room…the bedroom was upstairs and the bathroom was down a narrow and steep flight of stairs. Overall it was annoying having to trek bath and forth. The room was also unbearably hot despite the ACs being on. We kept the window’s curtains closed during the day, but this didn’t seem to help. After a day of sightseeing, we came back to our room to find housekeeping had opened the curtain and turned off both AC units. It was absolutely miserable. The bed was uncomfortable, lumpy in areas. On the final night, we finally asked for a fan which they did provide. We had quite the unsettling experience when our hotel door was unlocked and 2 hotel employees appeared inside our door at nearly 11pm. I was dead asleep with earplugs in when they turned on the lights, we kind of just stared at each other and they finally closed the door. Completely bizarre. Finally, the location is subpar. While it’s only a 15-20 walk to the center of Aix, you really miss out on the charm of the town. Bottom line, I would never stay here again.

Hygiene requires limited services, but we have or appreciate the tranquility of the hotel and the availability of staff. Excellent location, within walking distance to town. Possibility of parking on the street with parking meters.

The front desk of the hotel is very good. We booked a one-room room. Because we saw two adults and two children when we checked in, we changed it to a one-room room with two sofa beds. The location of the hotel is very good, only five minutes walk to the old town. The hotel has a washing machine, which is perfect for changing clothes during travel.

One of the most unforgettable experience in my life! The hotel is beautiful situated! Our room is modern and clean! I enjoyed having a stroll in the beautiful garden! It was amazing to have wine tasting and Michelin starred dinner in the hotel. The entire experience was exclusive! I enjoyed staying in this chateau hotel with my husband. It’s one of the highlights in our honeymoon trip.

Unexpectedly nice! We came to this hotel for one night because it's near the TGV station and we'd been unable to get into our hotel in Aix's old town until next day... This hotel turned out to have really comfortable well decorated modern rooms, excellent helpful staff and very generous extras: such as unlimited free mineral water and croissants in the hall, and free beer for anyone who didn't want to watch the rugby world cup in the restaurant/bar. (I should add that the hotel was quiet and so were the guests). A real effort has been made with the small landscaped garden and play areas, the swimming pool was clean and pleasant even though it was the end of the season, and the outlook very green over the golf course. The breakfast was absolutely the best I have ever had in France, with real French cheeses instead of the usual processed stuff, and fresh fruit and proper patisseries as well as eggs (and the meat was doubtless good too). The location was the main flaw for guests like us wishing to avoid using a car. It is a short taxi ride from the TGV station, but a half-hour bus journey to Aix proper through anodyne business areas. The other flaw - which wouldn't affect the sports fans or young families with cars who seem to be the usual guests - was the incredibly tiny bath. Sadly I fell trying to get out of that bath and am still dealing with the injury. I must add that we had come back again at very short notice for one further night, and again the staff were excellent and so was the room in all other respects...I should have used the shower that night instead!

The hotel is very good and I like it very much. There is a swimming pool, breakfast outdoors and sunny, good meals, large and comfortable rooms, and free parking. There is a young lady at the front desk who can speak a little Chinese and is very enthusiastic.

When we arrived there was no electricity. We were told that this would be remedied within fifteen minutes. In the end it took 3 hours. If we had been told right away that it was uncertain how long it would take, we would have left, because we came here to spend the night and eat for fun, not because it was necessary. But before we could start with the fun part my husband had a deadline for work. He spent 1.5 hours in the car working with a hotspot and the engine on, because we arrived with an empty computer. My advice for the next time this happens: contact the people who have booked a hotel room before they arrive, be honest enough that you don't know how long it will take and therefore give the option to cancel. However, no apologies were made, ‘it was just the way it was', the whole environment had the same problem, they couldn't help it. The food was okay, the girl in the restaurant who served us was super nice, the location, the hotel room all looked beautiful. When we went to sleep the music was still very loud, very audible in our hotel room. Really annoying. When I asked if it could be turned down, the response was 'No, this was normal over there’. When the music was still at the same volume at midnight and I went to the reception for the second time, really angry by now, there was finally a willingness to turn the music down. I think all the guests had left by now and the music was on for the staff themselves, all young & hip people. When we said on check out we weren't happy about our stay, the young guy at the front desk had no words, except that he wouldn't charge us for the dog. In short, a bad experience, for a high price :(€158 for a room without breakfast), without sorry, without compensation for the inconvenience. Apparently our experience was an exception because I mainly see positive reviews. But I would think choose to be either a party location or a hotel, and don't mix that up. And don't let your hotel be run by, excuse me, 'kids'. Or train them first in customer focus before you give them responsible positions.
