Gary, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location. Easy walking distance to everything. Everything was a little bit ‘quaint’ in the room and we had to carry our heavy luggage up a narrow steep set of stairs to get to our room. But great view from windows on top floor!
Deborah, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is charming. While it has modern amenities, you feel like you’ve stepped back in time with the high bedroom ceiling and decor. It’s close to Main Street where the Market happens, as well as the restaurants. It’s nice place to stay while in town.
Cathy, 1-night trip

Quaint hotel with charm - Superb!

Fantastic! The location is perfect...walking distance to everything. The service is spectacular, which is perfect for an early start to the day. Otherwise, I recommend breakfast at any of the cafés just minutes from the hotel to experience the town.
Samaara, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Charming. I think it’s an old Victorian house that has been refurbished and decorated with authentic antiques. Also, all of the art is original which I really appreciate and there is a lot of it. I highly recommend this hotel.
Kent, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice staff, facilities maybe need upgrading or fixing (ie. Shower broken) but very clean.
Laura, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A quiet -perfectly located for tourism -traditional small hotel in an C18 ‘mansion’. Friendly informal service. We stayed in the annexe of ‘superior’ rooms with ( very basic) kitchenettes. The rooms are spacious but in need of some renewal (e.g. the shower/bath). Simple continental breakfast €11.

Enchanted Stay

Our 2 night stay was very comfortable at Hotel Cardinal. We had the top floor room with views of the town and hills on both sides. Like others have said, the decor is beautifully traditional (not modern) but not dingy. We LOVED the character of the hotel and our room. Well-maintained and lovely staff. The location was also perfect, close to many things yet quiet. Our small pup loved it too! Pet’s allowed, always a plus😄 We highly recommend staying here and would definitely stay again. A perfect hotel to tie together a South of France trip. Merci !
Karl, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel was great! It feels historic on the inside and outside! As I was traveling with a friend, we chose the twin beds room. My bed was nothing fancy, but it was comfortable and I woke up feeling rested. Antique furnishings were delightful! The bathroom was very newly renovated, but in a European way - huge tub with a handheld sprayer, but no curtain or anything to hold the sprayer. I felt very tall entering the bathroom- if you are over 5'4" or so, be prepared to duck! The ceilings are normal height. There was a tiny elevator to the third floor. Staff were gracious and helpful, and let us store our luggage after we checked out. We did not choose the breakfast, but the dining room was cozy and I kind of wish we had. The location was perfect- a very short walk from the train station and close to everything. If you are very snobby about everything being new and just so, you should stay somewhere else. If you appreciate charm and character, this place will delight you!
Emily, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed in a fabulous room with a very tall ceiling and windows that looked right onto a church plaza with beautiful windows in a flower box. The room had a lovely sitting area and a kitchenette as well. It wasn't entirely easy to find just due to the roads in town and there wasn't parking on site. However, the hotel proprietors were extremely helpful in guiding us to the property and helping us find parking. The breakfast option was wonderful. Grand and elegant place. Location cannot be beat: charming and walk to everything
Kristina, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was like having our own apartment with separate kitchen in a quiet square across from a museum/ art gallery & actual hotel was round corner which was fine. Loved it. No lift but drawback was just shower in bath without curtain or screen so wet floor.
Susan, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The place is really special with an old World feel about it enhanced by a large room with bathroom and kitchen annexed, and being right next to an art museum and the St John of Malta Church dating back to the 13th century. Staff were friendly. The downside was cleanliness. The electric jug had a film on it, pots were unclean and a cup had lipstick on it. Just a little bit of effort scrubbing the bath and dishes would help. Also while there is dish cleaner and scrubbing brush there is no tea towel to dry the dishes.

Stay in Aix Ville Centrale

Could not be more centrally located, great staff, charming older hotel. Wifi was iffy.
Amy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

⭐️

Everything was spotlessly clean. Room was large. Kitchen was basically bare. For the price, please provide some essentials allowing you to make a coffee at least. And mention that the rooms are 4 floors up by stairs. One last issue was that nobody at the hotel spoke anything other than French. If these things had been made clear on the hotel description, we would definitely have chosen another hotel.

Une agréable plongée dans un autre temps !

Laissez vous porter par le charme volontairement désuet de l'hôtel : mobilier ancien, décoration des chambres. Et ne manquez surtout pas le petit déjeuner dans une si jolie pièce : prendre son café matinal dans de l'argenterie au coeur d'un hôtel particulier du vieil Aix, voilà une expérience client digne de ce nom et inoubliable. Cet hôtel a une âme, bravo !

Beautiful historic hotel with lovely ambiance and perfect for a visit to Aix, highly recommended.

The staff was warm and welcoming. We felt right at home. The location is super - just three blocks from the main pedestrian street with many shops and historic buildings. We will be staying at the Hotel Cardinal next time we visit Aix-en-Provence!

This hotel has a Paris chic flea market vive with great art finds. My room was huge with a separate kitchen and beautiful bath. I overlooked a centuries old church in the old town. The location made it easy to walk everywhere. The room was so beautiful that I hesitated to stay away for hours at a time.
