Are the train stations connected
Hi
We will be taking the over night train from Florence to Paris. and we will end up in the Bercy station and our hotel is near the Guard du Nord. Can you get from one station to the other or is it best to take a taxi, bus, or metro?

all train stations in Paris are connected by metro. You can find a metro map online.

Depends on how much luggage you have. Just one bag? Take the RER D train, which is direct from Gare de Lyon (Bercy) to Gare du Nord. Lots? Take a cab, especially if you are tired from the train trip.

There is a metro station outside Bercy station, but you need to change trains to get to Gare du Nord. It's a ten-minute walk to the Gare de Lyon which has direct RER trains to Gare du Nord.

I think one of the 'fast' metro lines (Meteor?) runs from Gare du Nord to Bercy. It's a pretty straighforward journey as I recall, so no need for a cab or bus really.
