If you look something

can only book a room for the summer vacations and have to write in advance.

Hotel

Near the cathedral in the old Aix an excellent place for the budget traveler.
Hotels like they used to be in last century but very warm welcome and very
convivial. Clean and cheap, everything you need ;-). From 31 to 36.50 €,
that’s no money.
More chic

How religion
leads to hotel. This is an ancient priory (hence the name) used as hotel of 23
rooms now. The rooms are very pretty, very cozy. 49.50 €
for two with bathroom and 64.50 €
for twin beds. One of my favorites! Notice
the park next to the hotel. It is called the park of the pavilion L’Enfant and
designed by Lenotre says a French guide. Let’s believe it! Prohibited
to enter.
Really more chic

Despite the interior is a little tarnished and the housekeeping is not always
impeccable, I have also a crush on this 3 star ancient monastery with apparent
beams. The rooms are pretty, well-furnished and different prices. Five rooms
with one big bed for 310, 330, 350 FF with shower and WC. The others go for
60.25 to 77 €
with bath and all comfort. A very well conserved 14th
century cloister to have your breakfast. Medieval ambience guaranteed!
Courtyard to park your car, very very useful in center town.
