This hotel is charming. While it has modern amenities, you feel like you’ve stepped back in time with the high bedroom ceiling and decor. It’s close to Main Street where the Market happens, as well as the restaurants. It’s nice place to stay while in town.

It was like having our own apartment with separate kitchen in a quiet square across from a museum/ art gallery & actual hotel was round corner which was fine. Loved it. No lift but drawback was just shower in bath without curtain or screen so wet floor.

Charming. I think it’s an old Victorian house that has been refurbished and decorated with authentic antiques. Also, all of the art is original which I really appreciate and there is a lot of it. I highly recommend this hotel.

We didn’t like the tub with no shower. The freezer in the kitchenette needed to be defrosted.We didn’t realize there was no elevator and had to walk up 2 flights with luggage. We liked the location close to attractions and dining. It was nice to have a refrigerator in the room.

We stayed in a fabulous room with a very tall ceiling and windows that looked right onto a church plaza with beautiful windows in a flower box. The room had a lovely sitting area and a kitchenette as well. It wasn't entirely easy to find just due to the roads in town and there wasn't parking on site. However, the hotel proprietors were extremely helpful in guiding us to the property and helping us find parking. The breakfast option was wonderful. Grand and elegant place. Location cannot be beat: charming and walk to everything

I chose this property because I wanted a kitchenette, it was centrally located, and reasonable. My room was quite large and the kitchenette had everything I needed. There was also a bathtub which I loved. The windows looked out onto a lovely courtyard on one side and a small square with a church and an art gallery on the other. Very well located near Cours Mirabeau and lots of smaller streets with shopping and restaurants. I was very happy with my experience. That said, it's a typical, older French hotel. Those expecting a North American-type hotel will be disappointed. Do check out the art gallery and it's sister gallery. Totally worth the six euro.

Very nice neighborhood and helpful staff, but the room was not well equipped with pillows and the bed was uncomfortable. In the bathroom, there was no shower curtain, so the only thing to do was to use the shower head as a bath and spray water all over the room. BReakfast with adequate, but not that good and not a good value for the price.

A quiet -perfectly located for tourism -traditional small hotel in an C18 ‘mansion’. Friendly informal service. We stayed in the annexe of ‘superior’ rooms with ( very basic) kitchenettes. The rooms are spacious but in need of some renewal (e.g. the shower/bath). Simple continental breakfast €11.

I stayed here for six nights while visiting my daughter in Aix. You absolutely cannot beat location!! I loved being able to have one of the windows in my bathroom open every night and there was absolutely no noise (even though in middle of town) to wake you up during the night. Everyone was so nice & everything was so clean.

The place is really special with an old World feel about it enhanced by a large room with bathroom and kitchen annexed, and being right next to an art museum and the St John of Malta Church dating back to the 13th century. Staff were friendly. The downside was cleanliness. The electric jug had a film on it, pots were unclean and a cup had lipstick on it. Just a little bit of effort scrubbing the bath and dishes would help. Also while there is dish cleaner and scrubbing brush there is no tea towel to dry the dishes.

A perfect place to stay in Aix-en-Provence
My daughter and I both loved Hotel Cardinal. The staff are extremely kind and helpful and I loved the family feeling of the hotel. The breakfasts were wonderful. We liked our room. The hotel is ideally situated to walk all over Aix-en-Provence -- it couldn't be more centrally located, yet one still had the feeling of peace and calm in this traditional hotel. You can hear the church bells and walk up to Rue D'Italie for restaurants, patisseries, fromageries, etc. What made everything extra special were the beautiful Christmas decorations everywhere, especially in the hotel. I'm ready to return right now.
