Hotel Le Pigonnet, Aix-en-Provence

Le Pigonnet is a charming hotel located near the buzzy Avenue Pierre-Brossolette, nestled within beautiful green spaces. Here, you'll be less than 1 mile (1.6 km) from the center of Aix-en-Provence. The hotel blends tradition and contemporary lifestyle, with its history closely linked with the resurgence of thermalism in Aix in the early 20th century. It's been owned by the Swellen family since 1924. 

Le Pigonnet maintains an air of timeless elegance with its 18th-century mullioned windows, foliage-covered facade, and burgundy shutters. Each of the rooms and suites at Le Pigonnet is individually adorned with antique furniture, authentic artwork, and carefully chosen fabrics. Classic rooms come with queen-sized beds, though other rooms and suites feature king-sized or twin-bed options, plus garden vies. For an intimate experience, consider the Private Villa with a pool, four bedrooms, and a terrace or the Family Suite, divided into two separate sections for parents and children.

For dining, the Table du Pigonnet, a chic restaurant with a seasonal menu, has been an esteemed institution since 1924. Chef Thierry Balligand, originally from Northern France, has embraced the colors of the south in his cuisine. For a more casual ambience with signature cocktails, visit the winter bar called 1924, which offers a relaxed atmosphere reminiscent of an English club.
