The Grand Hôtel Roi René reopened in Aix-en-Provence after a year of renovations, in late April 2026.
The hotel is pursuing a new identity, blending noble materials, craftsmanship, and contemporary design.
The renovation was entrusted to interior designer Fabien Roque, who completely reworked the lobby, the restaurant, the bar, and the reception areas.
The property notably highlights a world inspired by Provençal colors, with terracotta tones, olive green and beige, paired with solid wood, marble, leather and velvet.
The hotel also hosts several artistic creations, including a ceramic screen signed by Marie Levêque, installed in the public areas.
The exteriors have also been redesigned around a spirit of “French Riviera“, particularly around the pool and the relaxation spaces.
