Experts' Choice Award Hotel Le Pigonnet
What the experts agree on
Peaceful 18th-century Provençal manor surrounded by manicured gardens and Cézanne history, yet walkable to central Aix. Recently elevated to five-star status with refined interiors and a terrace restaurant overlooking sculpted grounds.
“Recently awarded its fifth star, this pink-sided Provençal mansion on the edge of town is surrounded by gardens and memories of Paul Cézanne, who used to visit.”
– Frommer's
