We stayed in the Suite which has a double bed and a single bed, the bathroom is huge with a spa bath and shower, there is a small walk in closet for hanging clothes, the bed is comfortable, the Suite is on the second floor above the busy street but the noise doesn't affect us and we notice the noise level dies down near midnight, never affected our sleep. Staff is relaxing and friendly, the whole place is an old house with wide stairs and high ceilings, May be grand house in the old days, you can open the big windows to get refresh air if you like. The breakfast room is very dull, food very bland, no ambience, don't eat there and there are a lot of eateries outside. Good location to walk to everywhere, we walked to the Atelier de Cezanne in around 30 minutes, around 10 minutes walk to Gare Aix-en-Provence, around 15 minutes walk to the bus station to catch coach to Gare Aix-en-Provence TGV. Will stay here again.

Will start by saying we are American and quite well traveled. Been to France several times since the late 80s. We found Hotel de France excellent from all standpoints. Its location is just fantastic in the heart of the old town on the main pedestrian street with lots of open seating restaurants and cafes. The room was very clean, the bathroom just one of the best of we had in many years of travel. Staff was friendly and efficient. Our room faced the street and it is the type of rooms we'd suggest for this hotel. A/C worked fine. We did not take their breakfast as we made alternative arrangements. Not a cheap hotel but offering real good value for money. Definitely recommended.
