A hotel with a large Salle de la Comédie featuring a parterre, orchestra and stage surrounded by two series of dressing rooms.
The Hôtel de Ville in Mâconnais is housed in the former Hôtel de Montrevel, built between 1746 and 1751 by Abel-Michel Chesnard de Layé, who passed it on to his son in 1753, who in turn sold it in 1767 to Comte Melchior de Labaume de Montrevel. A wealthy landowner in the Bresse and Mâconnais regions, he undertook major expansion work. He built the large Salle de la Comédie (now the Salle du Conseil Municipal), with a parterre, orchestra and stage surrounded by two series of boxes. He had a number of plays performed there, which all the nobles and bourgeois of Mâcon loved. The Comédie was destroyed by fire on the night of February 8-9, 1907. Before being guillotined during the French Revolution, Comte de Montrevel sold his hotel to the city of Mâcon on March 8, 1793. The marriage hall features sumptuous wood panelling and a library with medallion portraits of ancient philosophers. In the entrance hall, the staircase with its wrought-iron banister and the grand salon, like the marriage hall and the council chamber, are particularly worth a visit.

En 1792, la ville de Mâcon l'achète à son propriétaire et en fait son hôtel de ville.
En 1880, François Martin, maire de Mâcon, fit construire deux autres ailes en retour, du côté de la rue Carnot, encadrant une cour donnant sur la place Saint-Pierre.
L'hôtel de ville est inscrit au titre des monuments historiques : 1941.
Entre le personnel désagréable, la mauvaise foi, les nombreuses contradictions, le fait qu’on me raccroche au nez et qu’ils ne connaissent pas leur métier, je comprends tous les mauvais commentaires.
On me dit qu’on va me rappeler puis on me fait attendre 2 semaines sans nouvelles, la dame au téléphone me rappelle enfin pour me dire qu’elle était en formation alors que sa collègue m’a dit qu’elle était malade. C’est inadmissible, sans parler du fait qu’on me valide certains papiers pour m’en demander finalement d’autres presque tous les mois.
À fuir absolument !
