Boutique Hôtel Cézanne

Boutique Hotel Cézanne is a small, well‑located property in Aix‑en‑Provence near to the train station excellent for walking to the old town. Check‑in was smooth and the front desk staff were welcoming and helpful with local directions. The front desk team give us very good tips about Aix-en-Provence. I am sorry I dont know their name. The room was clean, tastefully decorated, and comfortable for a short stay. Space is used efficiently. Breakfast offered a good selection of hot and cold items. Cheese and fresh croissants and bakery was a winner. The calissons tea was something new for us. We had the calissons tea in the room only for one day. We would have appreciated an extra bag of calissons tea in the room. A good choice for travelers who want a central, comfortable boutique stay with friendly service while exploring Aix‑en‑Provence. Hope to see you in the near future to get the chance so say ”Bonjour” again.

We loved our beautiful hotel room at Boutique Hotel Cézanne. Shout out to Marius who went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable in our room. The hotel is conveniently located. It is a 5-10 minute walk to the old town in Aix. We highly recommend the Privilege room (if you don’t mind walking up a flight of stairs). It’s a room on the top most floor which is very roomy and modern where you can choose A/C or heater regardless of the season (which is rare in France).

Great hotel well situated and within walking distance to everything. The staff were friendly, helpful and very welcoming - especially the front desk team. Breakfast had a good variety of items and was well presented. I would stay again - the only draw back was the room temperature was warm since it was October and the a/c was off for the season.

Despite Hôtel Cezanne's central location, we found the accommodations disappointing to the point of awfulness. The only asset came from a very kind and gracious server that brought us beverages and snacks while we waited for housekeeping to prepare the room. In fact, we risked forfeiting our prepaid fare for two more nights and checked out after only one sleepless night. The room lacked functioning air conditioning and/or tolerable air circulation. Because the room overlooks a very busy, noisy street with abundant vehicles and pedestrians of the partying college variety, we needed to keep the windows closed to have any semblance of silence for an attempt at sleeping. The room itself is in disrepair - aside from the numerous cosmetic and brutish scars, the bathroom door refused to latch without slamming it shut, the paint in the bathroom is peeling or substantially mildewed (without a latex glove I chose to no inspect too closely), the tile is in various states of disintegration, the bathroom floor needed a good swabbing, and the carpet near the bathroom gave off clear aromas of urine. Also, we saw a live mouse scurry across the floor of the breakfast room while we waited for our room to become ready for occupancy. It falls well below our expectations for service, cleanliness, and hospitableness. In our most generous view it most closely resembles a youth hostel but we are not students. In our most hostile view it might best suit a heroin addict flop house. Bad on us for failing to do more than cursory research and trusting the property's description of itself. While it calls itself "boutique," in its current state, the Hotel Cezanne would never have found its way into a painting by its namesake unless he intended to create a tragic landscape.

I'm really annoyed that after paying 330 Euro for one night for the hotel's basic, 17sqm smallest double room, I can't even choose what temperature my room is. |I'd probably suffer it if the room cost 100 Euro but for 330 I'd expect to be able to choose. No air con allowed at this time of year apparently, only the heating! The room is very hot, I've opened the window to cool it down but it's still too warm. But there's nothing that can be done about the awful bathroom. Not only does it feel like a sauna, it has no air or ventilation in it. The door is also paper thin and every time the the person I'm traveling with goes to the toilet I can hear every detail of it. I wouldn't normally choose a room this small but it was the only room size they had available. I'd definitely recommend choosing a bigger room if you ever stay here. And I would definitely not pay 330 Euro for this room. It's a disgrace they've charged this much for it. Just because it seems to be a busy night to stay in Aix they've inflated the price to an unacceptable level. Now I don't mind spending money at all, I'd just expect more for the price (and the 330 is room only....)

My husband and I spent our anniversary at the Hotel Cezanne and absolutely loved it! The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are very clean and comfortable. The location is fantastic - close to the center of town without being too loud or busy. The staff was very kind and helpful and we felt very taken care of. I’d highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Aix.

Wonderful start to our Provence vacation. Hotel knew it was our 30th anniversary and had a lovely surprise in our room. While the room was a bit small, it was quiet and interesting design. Highly recommend for a reasonable hotel near center of town (5 minute walk to main shopping area).

Rooms were beautiful and spacious, equipped with fridge, good AC, lots of storage. The toilet is separate from the sink and shower. Only improvement could be having a small sink in the toilet so one does not have to walk all the way to wash their hands. Service was great and welcoming. Location was peaceful and walking distance to sights and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely hotel that lives up to many +++ reviews on travel sites. Stayed in a Junior Suite on third floor, which was super spacious, quiet, modern, attractively decorated, v/nice bathroom. Breakfast was good, friendly, kind staff. Great location, an easy walk to the city centre, cute sushi place next door.

Underwhelming. Good location but given the reviews of this hotel I expected more. The hotel is clean. The front desk staff when they are present sometimes respond when you say "bonjour." Complementary water in the mini bar is nice, but given the price of the room I'd expect more to be honest.

Wonderful hotel in a great location in Aix-en-Provence. Staff go above and beyond to ensure you have a good stay. The hotel is just off of the main square at the city center. It was a perfect home base for walking all over Aix. Very convenient to cafés, bars, great shops, and restaurants. Of all of the hotels we have stayed in while in France, Hotel Cezanne had the best service and the largest rooms. My husband and I were kindly upgraded to a junior suite with a king sized bed. This was seriously the most comfortable bed, ever, which is so appreciated after a day spent walking. We are hoping to return to Aix soon and bring our families with us, and we will definitely stay at Hotel Cezanne again.

We had brunch here outside on their patio and enjoyed not only the good food, but the very friendly and helpful staff service. When we finished, we had a long conversation with the front desk person, who gave us a map and directions to picking up a car. I was really impressed at the way they treated us, knowing we were not hotel guests.

I wish there was a different rating system on Yelp because 5 stars for one venue is not equivalent to 5 starts of another. We stayed at Hotel Cezanne for 4 nights during a stop in Aix on our honeymoon. We were in one of the suites, and the room was very spacious, private, and modern. It actually looked better than the photo which is not often the case. When looking for our hotel in Aix, I researched pretty much everything. We chose Cezanne primarily due to scheduling, but it also looked nice, had good reviews, and appeared to be in a good location. You are probably 2 minutes or so (walking) from the start of the 'main' festive area which was fine. We parked in their garage and never used our car for the 4 nights we were there. You can walk everywhere and find amazing restaurants and fun shops. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. One of their 'nightlife' recommendations we ended up not caring for, but they provided some wonderful restaurant choices (El Primo - is an awesome Tapas place! Great intimate ambiance and fantastic food!) This was the only place we stayed in Aix (and one of 4 areas during our trip) It was probably our 2nd favorite spot on our trip. No hesitation about recommending Hotel Cezanne!

Friendly, tasteful boutique hotel near center of town The rooms are creatively appointed and spacious by european standards. We enjoyed the complementary mini-bar stocked with soft drinks and the hotel's honor bar featuring a good selection of adult beverages of choice. Excellent bathroom and we enjoyed the fun bathrobes that were provided. The front desk person was extremely helpful in orienting us to the city and making a dinner reservation at La Tomate Verte (see separate review). The only complaint was that the breakfast which was 20 Euros per person, seemed a bit steep, especially with so many options within easy walking distance. This was our first visit to Aix en Provence and we look forward to returning and recommend Hotel Cezanne to anyone looking for a boutique hotel experience.

This is a really great place to stay. CLEAN rooms with good hot water and even a full size bathtub in a Jr. suite. Very pleasant staff, great location. Hotel Cezanne is pricey, but this was our splurge during our vacation. Only complaint was traffic noise. Ask about this when you book - they can probably give you a better room if it's a concern.
