Welcome to Maison Saint-Joseph

Welcome to our guest house, nestled within a 16th-century mansion, in the heart of the old city of Crépy-en-Valois. This historic building is an architectural treasure, representing the excellence of Oise architecture. It has been meticulously restored to preserve its original elements, such as the magnificent monograms of Diane de Poitiers and Marguerite de Valois, finely carved on the carriage gate of the main entrance.

Each room in our house is imbued with subtle sophistication, with meticulous attention to detail to offer you an elegant and unforgettable experience. The spaces present a subtle blend of clean lines and timeless charm, from tall painted ceilings to colorful niches, period fireplaces and finely crafted woodwork create an atmosphere of refinement, transporting you through fragments of passing time.

For more than twenty years, Anne, Régis and their daughter Éléonore have been restoring it. They cultivate a universe of travel here, connected to the etymology and history of their crafts: cabinetmaking and decoration. They immerse themselves in the exploration of materials and the new forms they generate.

From there, the house transforms into a laboratory that hosts and inspires numerous artists. And we will welcome you here with immense pleasure.

It is a space outside of time, which exists only for the simple pleasure of being on vacation and resting.
