Best way to transport 12 people CDG -Marriott Rive Gauche hotel
We are on a budget, but I think taking the RER and Metro would be a HUGE hassle. Can anyone recommend a reasonable, reliable shuttle service that would take 12 people from CDG to Marriott Rive Gauche. I need to book this shuttle prior to departure. We are looking at a budget of approximately $25 (US) per person one way. Is this feasible? I found one company, Paris Airport Transfer that could do it for $26 per person. Has anyone used this company. Thanks for your input.

You can get from CDG RER to Denfert-Rochereau RER station without making any changes.
The Marriott is very close to the station--you would come out of the station, turn right and then an immediate right and the hotel is downhill all the way on the Boulevard St. Jacques, about the equivalent of 2-3 blocks.
Info is just FYI--having to shepherd 12 people, I would be inclined to take a shuttle service.

Thanks for the help. I was hoping to find one vehicle that could take us all. These people are running the Paris Marathon as a fundraiser and I would like to keep everyone together. It would alleviate a lot of stress if I could see a sign with our name on it when we came out of baggage claim and had the transfer prepaid. That is why a reliable company is so important.
I checked the RER map and it seems we would have to make a change of lines and I am thinking that might be a challenge with 12 people, with all of their luggage after an overnight flight.
Merci

Cathinjoetown - I posted without seeing your reply. You said it was a direct line - no changes? I looked at a RER map and I thought I would have to change from the Blue CDG line to a gold line at St.Michel Notre Dame. Am I reading the map wrong? Thanks

Sorry, as you can see I have hit post without really completing all of my thoughts and questions. I "misplaced" the hotel and now realize just where it is. I see we could take one line and walk a few blocks BUT I think the shuttle is still the best option.

I think you should arrange shuttle(s) from CDG but do keep the RER/Metro in mind as there's the line right outside the hotel and just a few blocks away is the Denfert-Rochereau station, where you would get off from CDG.
