What's this?

20 September 2011

Top 3 reasons to stay at the hotel:

  1. The gardens at Le Piggonet are exquisite.  There are walking paths along boxwood plantings and every few feet an urn emerges with a gurgling fountain.  It is quiet and tranquil and offers delightful seating along the pathways and on the dining terrace.  I found several guests, like myself, just slowly meandering down the pathways before or after dinner.  It felt like being in an elegant and private home garden.

  2. Le Piggonet is very close to Aix-en-Provence without being effected by its traffic and noisy buses.  Within walking distance, if so inclined, or using the hotel’s shuttle, Aix’s historic center is easily reached.  I asked the shuttle driver, Ali to take me to the center the day I arrived.  After about an hour, I decided to walk back but was pleased when on his run, Ali recognized me and tooted his horn to pick me up for the remainder of the distance.  That felt very special.

  3. I am a very light sleeper and always request a “quiet” room, which is ever subjective, as some hotels cannot deliver “quiet”.  But, Le Piggonet and the garden some rooms face, can deliver tranquility.  

Overview:

The hotel is located near Aix within a short walking distance.

Buses and taxis are also available and easy to get to and from the center of town.  Upon my arrival, the taxi pulled into a small quiet courtyard and the front entrance of the hotel was clearly marked.  Once I was recognized, a porter quickly came to collect my things.  The check-in process was very good and the young man who assisted me was helpful and showed me personally to my room.

My room was located in a small building next door to the main lobby but was quickly accessible.  I was told that my room was already an upgrade from the reservation and if I wanted a larger room, that could also be arranged at an extra cost.  My room was small but very nicely appointed. It opened onto a beautiful garden and terrace.  I had asked for a quiet room and it was! The desk clerk showed me the safe and its instructions and then departed.

My stay was for two nights and I slept well on both. I ordered room service each morning for coffee and milk only and it was brought on time.  Breakfasts were beautifully laid out in the dining room and there was a large selection of things to choose from, in addition to the menu.

All in all a restful and enjoyable stay.

Mr. and Mrs Canova, France

Venue pour apprécier les concerts du Festival d’Art Lyrique, j’ai tout autant apprécié l’ambiance de l’hôtel, le repos à la piscine, le calme du jardin… un très bon souvenir.

Mrs. Pingeot, France

L'endroit est idyllique et reposant.le parc est un havre de paix. Le soir on peut y prendre un apéritif et y diner tout près. Le personnel est très professionnel et discret. Les plats proposés au dîner étaient très fins et goûteux.

Mystery Inspectors explained:


Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) places great emphasis on its inspection process and believes in the importance of using 'real' guests rather than retired hotel inspectors to provide a valuable assessment of the hotel, its facilities and the quality of service provided. Enlisting guests in the quality control programme not only enables SLH's customers to be directly involved in the process but allows the hotels to shape operations based on their guests' opinions and experienced insight. As far as the hotel is concerned, this means that every hotel guest is a potential inspector.
