Our favourite rooms
Every room has a unique collection of art, objets and antiques, mirroring the interiors of the 18th-century townhouses that line the streets surrounding the Cours Mirabeau. Floors are clad in chevron parquet, windows are screened with silk curtains and the walls are covered in murals in the style of 18th-century landscape paintings. The finest of them all is the suite, which has a grand, light-flooded bedroom with an ornamental dressing screen and a living room with a scarlet Persian rug.
Poolside
At 28 metres long, the heated outdoor pool is prodigiously sized for a hotel in the city centre. There’s a shallow section running along one side and plenty of sunloungers around the edge, plus a separate Jacuzzi off to the side.
Spa
Shaded from the sun by a chinoiserie screen and perfumed by fresh flowers, the hotel’s lone treatment room is tinged with old-world glamour. The therapists offer a range of treatments, including Swedish, Californian, ayurvedic and shiatsu massages, deep-cleansing facials and reflexology sessions. The spa products are by German beauty brand Dr Hauschka. There’s a small, wood-panelled gym with an exercise bike, free weights and a rowing machine.
Packing tips
Leave space for a few purchases picked up at the city’s markets, where traders hawk all manner of Provençal goods. On Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, local crafts are sold on the Espace Cézanne and antiques can be bartered for over on Avenue Victor Hugo.
Also
The common areas are all accessible for wheelchair users, and two of the guest rooms have been adapted.
