Château de l'Hermitage hosts small seminars, study days and golf incentive days for teams of up to 25, and private receptions and weddings for up to 100 guests standing or 50 seated. The hotel has 13 bedrooms, a restaurant and a 9-hole pitch-and-putt course. It stands at 8 rue du Parc in Ennery, near Pontoise in the Val-d'Oise, 30 km from Paris.
Seminars and company events
The hotel sells study days, residential seminars and incentive days, along with room hire, catering and activities on the estate and outside. It also receives showrooms, workshops and training days. The meeting room covers 24 m². It takes 15 around a rectangular table, 13 in a U shape, 25 in theatre layout and 30 for a cocktail. For larger groups, the hotel asks organizers to call to discuss other set-ups.
Four packages are listed. The study day combines the room, two breaks and lunch. The residential seminar adds dinner, a bedroom and breakfast. The Golf Incentive Day pairs a morning meeting with lunch and a two-hour afternoon on the course with a golf professional.

A limousine service is available, and the hotel can arrange sightseeing trips to Paris, Versailles or Giverny.

The golf course is a compact 600-meter par 27 with a 15-bay practice range, partly covered, a putting green and two qualified instructors who give individual or group lessons. The clubhouse is inside the château.
