Citadines Aix Jas de Bouffan

Overview

Situated in Southern France and 30km north of Marseille, Aix-en-Provence is also known as a town of art and a town of water because of the thousands of fountains in the city. It is the perfect locale to immerse in the relaxed Southern French lifestyle. The Citadines Aix de Bouffan, just opposite La Fondation Vasarely, a museum dedicated to the Hungarian-born French Abstract Painter, is the perfect spot to start your explorations.

The Apart'hotel is within reach of the city centre. There, you can amble along the famous Cours Mirabeau's shady boardwalk, tasting the southern French lifestyle in shops and sidewalk cafes. Or perhaps splash in the city's numerous historical fountains – one of the city's finest is in the vicinity. Discover the city's many treasures in the old city of Aix, the cathetral of St-Sauveur and the Musee Granet in the former priory of the Knights of Malta.

At the end of the day, relax in your open air swimming pool at the Apart'hotel and admire the view from the pool

Absolute musts: The Paul Cézanne signposted tour and the visit to the artist's studio.
