“Solid Three-Star, Good for Business traveller only.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2007

Recently spent a week at the Royal Mirabeau in Aix while on business. The hotel is above average for the area, from what I can tell, but it is a 3 star rated hotel best suited for business travellers.

There was free WifI internet access which was a very big plus and and savings.

The rooms were a good size and clean. However, the AC never cooled the room sufficiently and I kept the window open for cooling,

The staff spoke English, though spotty at times.

The Mona Lisa restaurant was adequate, but the food was nothing very exciting or tasteful.

There were lots of tourists (asian tour buses) and business types staying in the hotel, and the hotel was fully booked most of the time.

The location is good if you are working in the industrial / business zone where the hotel is located. This location is not good for tourists, as Aix center is some 20+ minutes away by car.

I stayed 6 days, but was only charged for two - and I couldn't convince the front desk staff to charge me accordingly!

Overall, I will stay here again, as it is the best hotel in this zone. I still recommend it for business travellers to this area.

It is conveniently located 10 minutes from the TGV train station which will whisk you to Paris.

“It's a business hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 November 2006

This hotel servers the industrial estate it is placed on - it is an OK hotel geared up for business and conferences - hotel rooms are clean, resonably sized and well fitted. Standard buffet breakfast, not a place for dinner. Miles from town (20 to 30 minutes drive!) so if you are looking to stay here to go to AIX don't. Choose a hotel near or in town. However, if your office is on the industrial park and you want to get to work quick then this is a great place for just that. The hotel is rated correctly at a 3* and the service was professional enough to boot. Cost is actually very good too.

  • Liked — convenience to the industrial estate
  • Disliked — too many business people!
  • Tips/Secrets — it's in the missle of nowhere and taxis are expensive.

“Avoid this hotel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2006

My husband and I stayed here in September 2006. First, it is about 10km's outside of town. (There is a bus that can take you into a city but it stops running at 20:00 hrs. Finding a taxi in Aix can be very challenging.)

Second, there is no internet in the hotel for guests to use.

The hotel itself was nothing special, the staff was just incredibly rude. For the amount of money we paid for this hotel, I was very disappointed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Avoid this hotel at ALL costs!

Stayed September 2006

We stayed in this hotel for the Aix en Provence Festival, with a group organised by a travel company. It had obvioiusly been difficult to get into the usual hotel they book due to the Cezanne Year celebrations. However, most of the group spent all their spare time looking for alternative accommodation.
The staff were very good despite being understaffed, but everything else was 3* at a pinch.
The hotel is situated right outside Aix in the middle of a commercial (i.e. offices) centre and presumably destined for the travelling salesman in a hurry. Luckily there is a pool to wash away one's frustration with the hotel.
We have stayed in about ten other hotels in Aix, any of which is miles superior to this one in every way. Avoid it if you can.
