Beautiful Self-Catering Apartment in the Heart of the Historic Centre of Aix-en-Provence, Cote d`Azur Reviews

Charming, Convenient, Cosy

I highly recommend this lovely apartment in the heart of Aix-en-Provence. The owners have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and picturesque. Communications are professional and efficient. I was a female traveling alone, and I felt like royalty sleeping in the sumptuous loft bed every evening. The bed is simply luscious! I imagine the loft would make for a wonderful romantic retreat as well (maybe next time ;) Use caution on that Japanese staircase, though; it can be tricky. Speaking of stairs, yes, if you are easily winded or otherwise have trouble climbing, this flat may not be for you. Lugging a large suitcase up/down the narrow spiral is a challenge. But once you're in, however, the flat is clean, charmingly decorated, light, and convenient to everything, including the markets on the square just a few steps away. I also recommend you stop by the Office of Tourism in the Centre Ville upon your arrival (approx. 8-minute walk from the flat) and check out the many day tours available (some brochures in the apartment, too). I was able (and fortunate) to book some tours online on the spur-of-the-moment. The tour groups were small (5-8 people), the guides were fun and knowledgeable, and the excursions really added much to the experience of Provence. Since I've returned home, I've discovered just how very enchanted I was with this apartment. Although I don't have a loft bedroom, I'm finding other ways to replicate the charming touches in my own decor (get yourself some French bed linens at the market or a boutique!) In all, this made for a very comfortable and convenient home base. Merci, Carol, John, & Bernadette!

This apartment was just perfect!

This apartment was just perfect! It was beautifully laid out with everything we needed and couldn't have been in a better position. We didn't even mind the 50 steps up and down because it meant we didn't feel guilty for eating all those pain au chocolate, crepes, cheese etc! The market being so near was a real bonus - We wish we could just pop out and buy fresh fruit like that etc for our breakfast here back home! The double glazed windows were so good. One evening was particularly noisy with the arrival of new students in town and when the windows were closed you could hardly hear them. We would have gone down to join them but figured we probably weren't in the right age group!!!

Would we return? We hope so one day and we wouldn't hesitate to use this apartment again. The main purpose of our stay was in relation to a product launch & workshops and I think some of the other delegates who were staying in hotels on the edge of the city were a little jealous when we were telling them about it! We very much enjoyed our stay in this wonderful apartment and highly recommend it.

I enjoyed my stay here very much. The apartment is lovely, airy and bright, tastefully decorated and exactly as shown in the photos. The rain shower head was marvelous. The kitchen was equipped with everything a guest might require. There was ample hot water and heating.

The bed was super comfortable with a thick feather duvet and the linens exquisite.

A word of caution for the stairs up to the flat. Don?t wear stilettos. There are 51 steps and the staircase is narrow, but it?s great exercise and will allow you that extra slab of pat?.

I would highly recommend this flat as a central location smack in the middle of Aix. The outdoor market in the square is at your doorstep 7 days a week and there is a little convenience store right around the corner. If you have a car, you can park at several spots all within a 10 minute walk from the apartment.
