Back in Monet's day, this pretty-in-pink villa, originally an épicerie-buvette (café-cum-grocer's store), was the hotel of the American painters' colony. Today, the rustic dining room and flowery patio, overlooked by a rose garden and the hut Cézanne once used as a studio, retain more historic charm than the simple cuisine (mainly warm and cold salads, large enough to count as main course in their own right) or the busloads of tour groups (luckily channeled upstairs).
