Lonely Planet "Bare bones dorms are aided by tennis, laundry, bike shed and summer barbecues. Sits 2km west of the centre with the motorway just below."
Rough Guide "Rather institutional-looking hostel, 2km west of the centre, with small dorm rooms, a restaurant, baggage deposit, tennis and volleyball courts, as well as parking... Closed mid-Dec to mid-Jan."

Frommer's "This hotel has been beautifully restored, with vaulted ceilings, stained-glass windows, stone walls, terra-cotta floors, and Louis XIII furnishings." Full review
DK Eyewitness "In a converted 12th-century convent, with the reception housed in a 15th-century chapel, the Hôtel des Augustins offers a haven of peace in the heart of bustling Aix."
Rough Guide "Classy central hotel, housed in a fourteenth-century monastery on the southern edge of the old core; the rooms are dependably comfortable."
Star Service "Sequestered one block off lively Cours Mirabeau, and a short stroll from its eponymous fountain, in the heart of the old city, this is a classic inn buried inside a 15th-century convent." Full review
Gayot "Hotel des Augustins Hotel Review: This beautifully restored twelfth-century convent houses fully renovated rooms with understated furnishings. Magnificent lobby."
Fodor's "The best aspect of this Old Town hotel, just a half block back from Cours Mirabeau, is its reception area: the groin-vaulted stone, stained glass, and ironwork banister date from the 15th century." Full review
Lonely Planet "A heartbeat from the hub of Aixois life, this former 15th-century convent with a stained-glass foyer, has volumes of history." Full review
