Welcome to the Hotel Le Régent, a place steeped in history.


Originally a coaching inn in the 16th century, later known as the Hostellerie de la Croix d'Or by the nobles and merchants passing through Villers-Cotterêts in the 17th and 18th centuries…

« L’Hôtel du Régent et les Anciennes Hostelleryes de Villers-Cotterêts » (1974)
By André Moreau-Néret (1897 – 1976). By André Moreau-Néret (1897–1976), President of the Regional Historical Society of Villers-Cotterêts from 1961 to 1972, then Honorary President from 1972 to 1976.

The Hôtel du Régent, which opened its doors in December 1970, continues the tradition of the Hostellerie de la Croix d'Or, which was famous in Villers-Cotterêts in the 17th and 18th centuries. The old name was not kept to avoid confusion with the Hôtel de la Croix d'Or in Soissons. The name "Le Régent" is a fitting reminder of the city's golden age.


      Historic Monuments

      On November 19, 1993, the facades and roofs of the hotel*, the wood panelling and stone fireplace in the "La Palatine" room, the corner tower staircase with its handrail, and the paved courtyard with its drinking trough were all listed on the supplementary inventory of historic monuments.
      The supplementary inventory of historic monuments (often abbreviated as ISMH) was introduced by the law of July 23, 1927, which extended the provisions of the law of December 31, 1913, on historic monuments. Registration on the ISMH, used between 1927 and 2005 in France, refers to movable and immovable property now listed as historic monuments.

      *Excluding the facades and roofs at the end of the southeast wing, and the facades and roofs of the former stables at the end of the northwest wing.


      Alexandre Dumas

      The Salon des Mousquetaires, the Marie-Louise Labouret bedroom, and the Alexandre Dumas bedroom... Through its rooms and lounges, Hôtel Le Régent pays tribute to Alexandre Dumas père, born in Villers- Cotterêts in 1802, in the street that now bears his name.

      Since 1952, the Alexandre Dumas Museum has been housed in the salons of a beautiful 19th-century mansion, preserving the memory of three generations of the illustrious Dumas family.
