Escale Oceania Aix-en-Provence

Convenient to motorways, petrol stations, easy to get to Marseille airport. Swimming pool, bar, staff, parking and comfortable bed. Not possible to get dinner in the evening - but nearby (under 5 mins walk) pizza place was charming and had some decent food options.

If you are planning to rent a car, this place is awesome. 10min from la rotonde parking garage. Easy access to go to Cassis / Nice / Marseille / Arles

Location easy. Near two bus stops. Very friendly service. Price right. Pool great.

Two days and nights at this hotel, before New Year's. It's a great choice if you're traveling by car. We liked: 1. Service When booking the room, I made a special request. The hotel responded positively right away. I also requested a quiet room. They gave us one at the end of the corridor, far from the elevators, perfectly silent. The personnel is very kind and polite. 2. Free parking Easy to arrive, easy to park. When you want to visit the center of Aix it's an easy drive and there are underground car parks on every corner of the historic city center. 3. Comfortable room Ok, the hotel's interiors are not wonderful - but they don't promise you that. It seems that all French hotel chains use the same suppliers of budget furniture, so I don't expect a designer experience. The room was spacious. The bed was very comfortable and the large bathroom had both a shower and a bathtub, and natural light through windows that you could open to get some fresh air. You could adjust the room temperature independently. 4. Cardio gym (a bonus surprise) If you're a runner the gym is a nice bonus. I didn't notice it until the second day so only used it once. The area is not nice for running or walking so the treadmill is a better option. The gym has no weight training machines or free weights. We're not big breakfast people so did not try the buffet breakfast (was not included). We had a relaxing stay, will book this hotel again if we return to the area.

Very friendly staff and we were given a junior suite with a separated room with sofa, tv and desk. Only 30 minute walk to the centre of Aix. Very close to a main road but well insulated and we were given a room facing the other way. Large car park.
