Accommodation





Hôtel Cézanne
Located in the heart of Aix-en-Provence, the Hotel Cézanne embodies the charm and sophistication of this historic city while providing guests with modern comforts and amenities. With its prime location just steps away from the famous Cours Mirabeau and numerous attractions, this boutique hotel offers an ideal base for exploring all that Aix-en-Provence has to offer.

Aix-en-Provence
Aix-en-Provence, or Aix, as it’s often shortened to, is a city in Provence, near the Côte d'Azur. It’s renowned for its stunning scenery and rich history, which is apparent in everything from the romanesque architecture to the city’s pride in its cuisine. It was the home to the painter Cézanne, but is perhaps just as famous for its water features (another nickname for Aix is ‘The City of a Thousand Fountains’) and its calissons, marzipan-like French sweets, which you’ll of course have the opportunity to try as part of the immersion programme.
