Chateauform Monceau Vélasquez is a meeting and seminar house in a private mansion on a side lane of Parc Monceau, in the 8th arrondissement of Paris. It has 11 meeting rooms and a 40-seat auditorium, takes working groups of 2 to 50 participants and can host a cocktail reception for up to 100. The interior is styled as the home of a nineteenth-century collector, with an English-club feel.
Seminars and company events
The house is aimed at working meetings, management committees, strategy sessions and business breakfasts held in confidence. All rooms are fully equipped and lit by daylight. Chateauform runs the day end to end: a pair of resident hosts welcomes the group, the team handles the planning, and the official pages state that the quote equals the final invoice. For a day of study, the group's catalog adds optional activities such as a cooking workshop, a tablet-based escape game and a yoga and meditation session.
Beyond the meeting rooms, the house has five dining rooms and five lounges. They serve for lunch, an afterwork, a cocktail or a dinner prepared by the chef and his team.
Rooms and capacities
The largest group is 50 people. The six modular rooms are listed at 71 m² and seat up to 50 in theater style, 36 in a classroom or in islands, 28 in a U shape and 26 in a conference layout. The auditorium is listed at 50 m² with 40 seats. Two meeting rooms with a fixed table are listed at 24 m² and take 13 people each. Two informal rooms of 30 m² also take 13 each.
For receptions, the cocktail space holds 100 participants, and the event surface is stated at up to 110 m². These figures describe a house for small and mid-sized groups, not for large conventions.
Catering
Meals are prepared on site by Chef Steven and his kitchen team, and the day formula is all-inclusive per participant and per day, with meals and generous breaks. Lunch can be served in one of the dining rooms, and the group offers an afterwork, a cocktail or a dinner in the evening. Ask the team about dietary requirements when you send your brief.
History and setting
The house follows a travel theme. The group describes a collector's home where souvenirs from distant trips appear on each floor, and rooms carry the names of well-known places. The favorite spot of the house is the former ballroom, kept intact with Louis XV paneling and a polychrome inlaid wooden floor. It is suggested for a lunch with a view of the period decor, or for a dinner in a historic setting, and it is the place named for cocktail receptions.
Getting there
The house is at 2 avenue Vélasquez, close to Parc Monceau. The nearest metro station named on the official page is Villiers, which is served by lines 2 and 3. The sales team can be reached by phone to send a brief and receive a quote.
