Le Clos de l'Orgerie hosts study days, team meetings and residential seminars for 25 to 80 participants, and can lodge a group in its 26 bedrooms. The hotel belongs to The Originals City group and stands in a 5,000-square-meter park at 3 rue de l'Orgerie, 1.5 km from the center of Château-Gontier, in Mayenne.
Seminars and company events
The hotel rents its meeting room by the day and sells formats from a simple room hire to a full residential seminar. The room takes between 25 and 80 people depending on the layout chosen, and comes with a screen, a video projector, a flip chart and Wi-Fi. For a two-day program, participants can stay in the hotel, which keeps the group together in the evening and saves travel time in the morning.
The hotel lists the room for both meetings and banquets. Its position, less than a kilometer from the N162 between Laval and Angers, suits companies whose teams come by road from across the Pays de la Loire. The quiet park offers a place to step outside between sessions.
Rooms and capacities
The single meeting room is the hotel's event space. It ranges from 25 people to 80 people depending on the configuration. The hotel does not publish the room's name, size or the capacity for each layout. A private car park sits on site, and the hotel has equipment for guests with reduced mobility.
Accommodation
The hotel has 26 rooms with a plain, contemporary decor. All have a television, Wi-Fi and a desk, and bathrooms with a hair dryer and toilet. Superior rooms open onto a terrace or balcony with a view over green countryside. Family rooms take three or four people, and some family rooms have a separate bathroom. Breakfast is a buffet with hot drinks, breads and pastries, fruit, eggs, cold cuts and local cheeses; it can be served in the room for a supplement.
Catering
The hotel does not run a full restaurant. For dinner it offers caterer trays with a starter, main course and dessert, best ordered in advance, or a meal at one of its partner restaurants nearby. For study days and residential seminars, lunches and dinners are arranged with partner restaurants close to the hotel or in the town center of Château-Gontier.
History and setting
The hotel has been renovated and is now part of The Originals City group. Château-Gontier is a small town on the Mayenne river, listed among the Plus Beaux Détours de France. The hotel is close to La Vélo Francette, the cycle route from Ouistreham to La Rochelle, and has a storage room for bicycles. The Abbey of Solesmes and the Cabaret Le Live are among the outings suggested nearby, useful for an evening or a short visit as part of a seminar program.
Getting there
The hotel is less than 1 km from the N162 that links Laval and Angers. Laval is about 20 minutes away by car and Angers about 35 minutes. Both cities have train stations on the high-speed line from Paris. Reception is open from 7 a.m. on weekdays, with a break in the early afternoon.
