Le Patio Bastille can host board meetings, training sessions, workshops and small cocktail receptions in two daylight rooms, the larger one taking up to 30 people in theater layout. The hotel offers about 70 square meters of private-hire space in total and lists events of up to 50 guests. It is a three-star residence with 88 rooms and suites at 289 bis Rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine, in the 11th arrondissement of Paris, between Place de la Bastille and Place de la Nation.
Seminars and company events
The meeting offer suits a one-day session, a small sales meeting or a training course for a team that also needs bedrooms on the spot. Both rooms have daylight. The hotel sets the room in the layout you choose and provides notepads, pens, a flipchart and mineral water. A team of 12 can work in classroom layout in the smaller room, and a group of 17 around a U-shaped table in the larger one.
For a group that stays overnight, reservations of more than 10 bedrooms are handled as group bookings by the events team of The Gate Collection, which runs the hotel, and may come with specific conditions.

Catering
A buffet breakfast is served every day in a dedicated breakfast room. It is not automatically included in the room rate. The hotel's pages do not describe a restaurant or lunch service for meetings, so meals for a full-day seminar should be discussed with the events team.
History and setting
The building is organized around shaded inner courtyards and a paved terrace planted with shrubs and white and pink flowers, a quiet space set back from the street. The hotel belongs to The Gate Collection, a small group that also runs Hôtel du Collectionneur and Les Jardins du Marais in Paris and The Watergate Hotel in Washington, DC.
