The Hoxton, Paris hosts meeting days, showrooms, press days, product launches, private dinners, parties and weddings, from a side room for five to a full buyout of its brasserie for up to 300 guests. The main event space is L'Appartement, a barrel-vaulted floor of seven rooms that can be hired one by one or together for up to 120 guests. The hotel occupies an 18th-century residence with original staircases and courtyards at 30-32 Rue du Sentier, in the 2nd arrondissement of Paris.
Seminars and company events
L'Appartement is sold for meeting days, team away days, brainstorming sessions and showroom set-ups. Each room has a TV screen and flip charts, with wifi and printing. A host is on hand all day. A shared pantry, La Cuisine, is open to meeting clients, stocked with coffee, teas, soft drinks, fruit, morning pastries and afternoon cakes. For a working lunch or a board meeting, the team prepares set menus.
For a larger corporate event, a networking evening or a press junket, the hotel rents the whole of L'Appartement, all seven rooms plus La Cuisine, for up to 120 guests in flexible layouts.

Weddings and receptions
The hotel sells weddings, birthday parties and Christmas parties. L'Orangerie, a private room off the courtyard with daylight and a planted wall, suits an intimate wedding, a private dinner or a cocktail.
