Hôtel Le Renaissance hosts meetings, study days, residential seminars, business meals, cocktails and weddings, from 12 people in its smallest salon to 90 in two joined rooms and about 110 guests for a wedding dinner in the restaurant. It is a three-star hotel and restaurant with 30 bedrooms at 225 avenue de Villeneuve, close to the center of Mont-de-Marsan in the Landes.
Seminars and company events
The hotel rents five meeting configurations, from small committee meetings to company seminars, conferences and training sessions. Each room has free wifi, and most are fitted with an interactive touchscreen, a microphone, a webcam and ClickShare wireless presentation, so remote participants can join.
Three formats are offered: a study day, with a continuous coffee break (espresso machine, fresh juice, tea and mini pastries), lunch with wine, water and coffee, and the room; a semi-residential seminar, which adds a night in a double or twin room and continental breakfast; and a residential seminar, which also includes dinner. Seminar requests go to the hotel by email or phone.
Year-end company meals are also organized in the restaurant, with dedicated festive menus.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel has run weddings for about ten years with a package based on hiring the whole establishment. In one place, the couple can hold the welcome drinks in the garden, the dinner in the restaurant, the party in a dance area until 3:30 am, the guests' night and, in one package, breakfast the next morning. A room is set aside for children, and the staff stay on until 1 am. One team of 14 handles the whole event. Guests' rooms can be paid by the couple or charged to each guest.
For cocktails, birthdays and evening receptions, the hotel builds a tailored formula: savory and sweet bites prepared by chef Christophe Belmonte and his team, served as a buffet, with cocktails or wines chosen by the sommelier.
Rooms and capacities
The Petit Salon (22 m²) seats up to 12. The Salon Hemingway (26 m²) takes up to 20 and the Salon Blondin (49 m²) up to 50; joined together, Blondin and Hemingway form 75 m² for up to 90 people. The Salon Lac (55 m²) takes up to 55 and has a touchscreen and flipchart. The restaurant dining room is used for wedding dinners.
Accommodation
The hotel has 30 bedrooms, including 2 suites (Renoir and Modigliani) and 2 junior suites, some facing the park. Rooms have air conditioning, free wifi, a flat-screen TV and a welcome tray with a Nespresso machine. There is free parking with electric vehicle charging points.
Catering
The restaurant serves cooking based on Landes produce by chef Christophe Belmonte, with homemade dishes and a daily menu. The sommelier, Christophe Magny, advises on wine from the hotel's cellar. Meals for study days and seminars are served here, and the restaurant also offers takeaway menus.
History and setting
The hotel describes a contemporary setting in a wooded park, with a summer swimming pool and terraces along a pond, a quiet base a short distance from the town center. It holds an ecolabel and welcomes cyclists. Mont-de-Marsan is the prefecture of the Landes, known for its Madeleine festival in July and for the Arte Flamenco festival, both of which the hotel marks with special menus.

The hotel is at 225 avenue de Villeneuve, 40000 Mont-de-Marsan, with free parking on site. Check-in is from 3 pm and check-out before noon.
