It is thanks to two talented architects, Laure Juhen and Louis Mariotti, that The House of Aix now displays itself as a true haven of peace, a private mansion combining luxury and a hushed atmosphere. Carefully and passionately renovated by the Compagnons de France, La Maison d’Aix will charm you from the moment you arrive: between the Jerusalem stone floor and the centuries-old parquet flooring, you’ll want to extend your stay.
La Maison d’Aix has only a small number of rooms and suites. They all have names: Le Corset, Jardin Secret, La Chambre d’Henriette, and the Love Suite. We admit to having a soft spot for Henriette's Room The ideal room for lovers passing through Aix-en-Provence.
Relaxation, pleasure, and refinement are the watchwords when staying at La Maison d’Aix. For reading, listening to music, or simply dreaming, Le Salon Rouge welcomes you: legend has it that this is where the former owner of the property would receive her friends Cézanne and Picasso for champagne and world-changing conversations.
And to end the day in style, head to the Secret Spa: located in the basement of La Maison d’Aix, you can relax in a heated pool at 29°C, as well as in the hammam. In the hotel, there is no restaurant, but Aix-en-Provence enought by a wide margin.
In a nutshell
- A haven of peace in Aix-en-Provence.
- La Maison d'Aix has a very small number of rooms and suites.
- Le Secret Spa in the basement invites you to total relaxation.
Restoring oneself: The spirit of the Violet
Lovers of fair, precise, and delicious gastronomy are sure to know The Spirit of the Violet by Marc de Passorio. With a cuisine focused on local and seasonal produce, the chef reinvents, creates, and imagines signature dishes thanks to producers who offer him a wide range of ingredients. When the weather is nice, reserve a table in the garden and let the magic happen with the «L'esprit de la Violette» menu. The "Bounty" dessert, with its dark chocolate and coconut mousse, is already legendary!
With the kids
La Maison d’Aix is better suited for a romantic getaway or a stay with older children than for a weekend with a baby or toddlers.

The House of Aix, 25, 4th of September Street, Aix-en-Provence, France – website Starting from €270
