The staff was really friendly and helpful. The hotel is located in a quiet part of the village, surrounded by tall trees and it feels like an old family bastide. We loved the pool too and hearing the cicadas around us. The children loved playing in the hotel park. Breakfast had plenty of locally sourced food and everything was fresh and tasty.

FAQs about hotels in Provence

The Picturesque Land of Lavender and Pastis

With lavender meadows and limestone soils covered with garrigue, the beautiful Provence smells of herbs, flowers and warm mistral winds. This vast French region spreads along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea from the wetlands of Camarque to the peaks of the Maritime Alps.

Famous for its cuisine, picturesque villages and the weather, Provence is one of France’s most popular holiday destinations. People come here to relax under the stunning blue skies and enjoy a slower life pace over a glass of pastis or local wine.

But don’t be mistaken, Provence is as much about the bustling cities as it is about its quiet countryside. Make sure you pay a visit the 2nd largest French city, Marseille, the forever glamorous Cannes or the popular resort of Nice. All of them offer plenty of sightseeing attractions, cultural events and fine dining venues.

For a breath of art and history, stop in Arles, a town full of Roman remains and Van Gogh’s famous artistic inspiration, or Avignon, best known for the stunning Gothic Palace of the Popes - the seat for Western Christianity during the 14th century.

From blue sea to rocky mountains, Provence has something for everyone’s taste. So does Booking.com: over 2000 properties in the region, from hotels with pools to cosy bed & breakfasts for your perfect Provence holiday.

We liked everything! No complains at all! From arrival we were met by uniformed staff who took care of car parking and whisked the luggage to our room. The property is immaculately decorated, grounds manicured to perfection. Everything in the room was included. On leaving we noticed our bags had personalised, engraved leather tags sporting the Airelles brand. Just a superb experience! Highly recommended!

There was so much to see and do!

There was so much to see and do! The History Museum in the Bourse shopping centre was fantastic! The Cosquer Cave was wonderful. We took the boat trip to the Calanques and enjoyed it. It was easy to get around and we used buses and the Metro. The best souvenir store was "Marseille in The Box". 13 Rue Reine Elizabeth. It is opposite the Carrefore store outside The Bourse. The man who runs it has items that are made for him in Marseille and unique items that are not found in the souvenir stores on the waterfront. He also speaks English and has good information about visiting Marseille. Great restuarant: Il Trio, 29 Pl.aux Huiles. In big plaza just behind the waterfront. Delicious and large size platter at a reasonable price.

Novotel Pont del Arc is ideal accommodation for car based family roaming in Provence, as we have enjoyed for more than three decades. Few locations have maintained the same level of excellent service. Aix is a VERY special place, being the hometown of Cezanne, Zola etc. and ideal base for exploring the whole of Provence, particularly the Cote d'Azur, Marseilles, Grimaud, the Callanque etc etc. :-),

Unfortunately, we only had two nights in our itinerary for Arles. It is a charming and elegant city that really deserves a few more days to explore, relax, and enjoy. The people were very kind and welcoming. Unfortunately, the National Archeological Museum was closed for renovations, so I hope to return to Arles when it reopens.

Enjoyed swimming, walking along the sea front and the ports and having coffee overlooking the sea front. Didn’t really see the uphill historic part, which I regret. The Tourist office at Saint Raphael was helpful as I needed a bus timetable. I’d say you need to be reasonably fit ( or have a car) to stay in the area I was in as in fact buses were few and far between so I did a lot of walking. I was on an Interrail pass so also enjoyed a little side trip out to Nice, which has good and frequent rail links with Saint Raphael.

I drove down from the Marne valley and this was as far as I wanted to drive in one day! Orange is a delightful little town with Roman theatre the main attraction, but I used it as a base to visit Mont Ventoux (Tom Simpson memorial), Avignon, Arles, Camargue and Pont du Gard - all easily reached by car. Quieter than the main Provence towns but with nice restaurants and cafes so was very happy with it as a base for 3 days. Favourite lunch spot was the Brasserie du Mule du Pape in Chateauneuf du Pape.
