Hôtel Sainte Victoire

This is a beautifully designed modern hotel located in the countryside of Vauvenargues, which is a small community about a 15 minute drive from Aix en Provence. We stayed 5 nights and were impressed by the entire staff, which is super-friendly and professional, from the front desk concierges to the dining room staff. The rooms are very modern, with beautiful wood paneling and large wood closets, and the bed is very comfortable. The bathroom is small, but has a large modern sink and wonderful, luxurious shower with both a waterfall feature and adjustable handheld feature. Water pressure was perfect and hot/cold water temperature was very easily controlled by the modern fixture. The bathroom also has a towel warmer/dryer, which was very convenient. Our room had double glass doors leading to a small balcony on the second floor, which has a simply extraordinary view of the nearby mountainside and the Chateau of Pablo Picasso, which are just beyond the hotel's lovely pool. We were very pleased to find that our balcony doors also have a mechanized shutter that can be used to block out early morning sunlight from the room. The dining room is small and simple, but the staff are very attentive. Breakfast, which is made to order, was fresh and very good, and the chef's dinner tasting menu is extraordinary. Overall, for a small hotel in the countryside of Provence, we found this to be an extraordinary experience.

Fabulous boutique hotel in Provence It was a superb, boutique hotel stay where nothing was too much trouble. From booking various restaurants for dinner, to bringing drinks to the pool, the staff was genuinely attentive and cared that we had a wonderful, peaceful stay. A tremendous location for Aix en Provence, it was a calming trip from start to finish. Highly recommended hotel.

Excellente service on all accounts. The breakfast was a delight with the staff willing to adapt to all demands. Initially the air conditioning was not turned on but this was quickly rectified. The rooms were excellent except that the shower door only half complete; meaning the bathroom floor got wet,

Even though we only stopped here for a coffee, we were still treated as valued guests. The excellent coffee came with cookies. The service is thoroughly professional and the view splendid. We will return surely to try the restaurant. I live in the area so I will not be testing the hotel but it certainly looks like a good choice to stay.

This is a well priced and delightful hotel, newly renovated and with an amazing restaurant. We came here during a heat wave, and were pleased to find that the rooms had great a/c and that the pool offers a great way to cool down (with a beautiful view). As for food, breakfast is delicious. And one day we stayed for lunch. We’re pescatarian and I usually avoid eating vegan. But the Vegan lunch was one of the top ten meals I’ve had in the past year. As for the service? Our rental car had no A/C, and we had to drive to Aix. The wonderful manager was nice enough to offer us her car. We declined her generous offer, but this was symptomatic of the way she treated us and all guests, anything to make us happy. We highly recommend staying here, it’s a gem.
