Villa Saint-Ange

Our stay at Villa Saint-Ange was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel welcome and well cared for—especially by Quentin, the wonderful concierge. He was warm, attentive, and genuinely helpful, offering a personal touch that elevated our experience. The rest of the staff were also excellent—professional, friendly, and discreetly attentive. Travelling with our 7-month-old could have been stressful, but instead, it was relaxing and easy thanks to the thoughtful team. They created a beautiful crib setup and even arranged a babysitter for one evening so we could enjoy dinner at the hotel restaurant—which, like breakfast, was absolutely exceptional. The pool is stunning, the facilities are everything you’d expect from a five-star hotel, and the atmosphere is calm and elegant. The hotel is well-located for exploring Provence and is just a short drive from Marseille Airport. A truly memorable and luxurious stay—we would return in a heartbeat.

Lovely hotel perfectly located within a 5 minute walk of the city centre. Beautiful room with terrace and large en-suite with bath and large shower. Very clean and everything you could need was provided. The masseuse was fantastic - splurged on a few there and thought she was one of the best. Used only clean, organic products and was brilliant. The only constructive feedback I’d provide is that after enjoying a delicious dinner at the hotel, unfortunately I suffered from awful food poisoning. I’d only eaten food from the hotel that day and it came 6 hours post dinner. I explained this to the hotel expecting they’d be apologetic but to no avail. I’ve only had food poisoning once at a great restaurant in London - they couldn’t have been apologetic and comped the food. Sadly the manager didn’t do the same for the dinner at this venue. These things happen but you can’t expect a guest to pay £200 pp for dinner and be happy if they are sick on the back of it. That’s my only constructive feedback. Lovely otherwise.

This is a very beautiful hotel, lovely public facilities especially the swimming pool area. Our room was spacious and very comfortable. The staff were lovely and the hotel was spotlessly clean. In a quiet location about 10 mins walk from centre. Breakfast was excellent.

The hotel is really stunning, every detail has been thought through. The grounds are stunning, the pool beds are comfortable, we had a really nice room with a little private outdoor terrace. Really nice bathrooms. The most stand out things were the food and the service. Please if you go eat in the gastro restaurant, it’s outstanding. The people that they employ really care about your experience, the food and the execution. Please tip them!!! I get the feeling that they don’t get tipped often which given their level of expertise is a shame. We had the pleasure of talking to a couple of the staff and they went to university and studied their craft, they are very professional and take pride in their work. You can really tell that the hotel is independent and the person that owns it has an eye for detail and a passion for food, wine and a luxury experience. I can honestly say we will be back annually. Well done to the whole team.

Villa Sant-Ange is the best show in town for absolute hotel perfection. It is quite simply gorgeous and considering it is largely a new build since 2019, around one original historic mansion, the scope and design of the hotel plan and grounds is stunning. The decor is very gilded and trad but it has a romantic, illuminated and reflective quality and overall the feel is relaxed luxury. The warm welcome from the offset with the friendly and extremely knowledgable host, Benjamin, and everyone really from reception to housekeeping and the serving team were exceptional. The warmth, smiles and good humour is what makes this place exceptional without being stuffy. The dining spaces are beautiful and breakfast including the buffet is outstanding. We were grateful for vegan cooked breakfasts of delicious vegetables and excellent coffee with plant milks available. The pool runs the mighty length of the restaurant, a beautiful, tranquil, turquoise perfect for dipping under azure Provencal skies. Loungers and drinks by the pool - try the ultra quality delicious chips - makes for a perfect holiday. The short, easy walk into the gloriously convivial and beautiful town of Aix makes this perfectly situated as well as being a quiet location.
