[En France] En principe, «hôtel de ville» désigne la mairie d'une grande ville ou d'une assez grande ville, et ne s'emploie jamais quand on parle d'une petite commune rurale (l'expression peut se dire cependant quand on parle d'une petite localité [...] si elle a, par son aspect, un caractère incontestablement urbain et si l'édifice est isolé, assez grand). Mairie peut se dire aussi bien à propos d'une très grande ville [...] que d'une très petite commune [...] 4, record 4, French, - h%C3%B4tel%20de%20ville
