Bel Ami in Pacy-sur-Eure, in Normandy, hosts residential seminars and private events with a new pavilion of 158 square meters that holds 60 people seated or 100 standing. The hotel has 16 bedrooms, a restaurant for 50 and a garden on the Eure, less than an hour from Paris on the road to Deauville.
Seminars and company events
The Pavillon Bel Ami opened in 2026 and offers 158 square meters in three rooms named Madeleine, Duroy and Maupassant, which can be arranged in several formats depending on group size. The space is new and fitted with recent technology. Its maximum capacity is 60 people seated or 100 standing.
The hotel sells turnkey packages. They cover a continental breakfast buffet from 7:00 for guests staying in the hotel, a savory snack for the morning break, a three-course lunch in the restaurant, an afternoon break with homemade sweets, an aperitif in the pavilion and a three-course dinner. The kitchen uses fresh, homemade products, mostly sourced in the region.
A project manager handles each request from the first contact to the day itself. The stated process is a request by email or phone, a quote within 48 hours, validation, advice on organisation, an optional site visit, a personal welcome on arrival, coordination during the event and a follow-up afterward.
Teams can add activities on site or nearby: outdoor games, karaoke, team building in several themes, workshops on flowers, chocolate, pastry or well-being, sports classes indoors or outdoors, and a guided canoe trip that starts from the hotel's jetty between April and September.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel and its garden can be reserved as a whole for weddings, birthdays, christenings and family reunions. The team plans the reception with lodging, catering and entertainment together. The restaurant seats up to 50 for a sit-down meal. For a more informal aperitif dinner, the pavilion takes up to 100 standing, with sound and image projection, a karaoke area, table football and decoration on request.
Rooms and capacities
The pavilion holds 60 seated or 100 standing. The restaurant seats 50. The private-hire option covers the hotel's 16 bedrooms, a cocktail or dinner, a range of activities and a breakfast or brunch the next day.
Accommodation
The hotel has 16 renovated bedrooms from 18 to 35 square meters, overlooking the garden or the river. Some have a private patio and others sit under the roof, and there is also a 51 square meter duplex.
