CDG Hotel-No Websites Please

We have to spend the night of 9/18 at CDG since we have an early Delta flight on the 19th.<BR><BR>We want a hotel at or in CDG 2, that is decent and has a restaurant. Please do not send websites. The great benefit of Fodor's is to learn of another's personal experience. I often share mine and appreciate the many kind people that do likewise.<BR><BR>Thanks.

Anthony,<BR><BR>We have overnighted at the Holiday Inn at Roissy-Charles de Galle Airport. They have a very good restaurant and the room (we had a king size bed/non-smoking room) was more upscale than a typical, state-side chain room.<BR><BR>Since you need to stay over on a weekday, the room rate will be higher than the specials you can get on the weekend when all the business travelers have disappeared.<BR><BR>If the Holiday Inn is a bit higher in price than you want to spend, there is an Ibis directly across the street from it. Ibis hotels are the same everywhere in France---very clean, great breakfasts, tiny but functional rooms.<BR><BR>If the Ibis is more in your price range, you can always walk across the street to the Holiday Inn for dinner. <BR><BR> Both hotels are serviced by the same shuttle buses.

Georgine,<BR><BR>We will arrive at CDG on the TGV. How much of a hassle will it be to get to the hotel bus from CDG 2?<BR><BR>Thanks for the information.<BR>

The free shuttle buses to many hotels stops right at the station!They loop around the airport and loads of hotels about every 5 minutes.Do NOT stay at the Holiday Inn.I stayed there on August 2,was sent to 4 rooms and gave up,the A/C does NOT work and the windows don't open!The elevator was also broken that day.The only apology was from a young Canadian girl the rest just shrugged and walked off!<BR>PS I complained on my return to USA and got a full refund.

Stayed at the Sheraton (it's in the airport) two years ago; the hotel shuttle picks up and delivers from and to each terminal.<BR><BR>I didn't eat at the hotel restaurant, but there is at least one.

Also looking for a hotel at CDG for last night of trip. Tried www.accorhotels.com & got only in Paris, no airport. Tried http://www.airwise.com/airports/euro...cdg_hotel.html, found none. Help.

Jane, input Roissy for place rather than Paris, since the airport is located in the suburb of Roissy.

Personally, I would get up 45 minutes earlier and leave from a Paris hotel, but I completely understand people who don't care to do that. There is a very nice Hilton at CDG with large, well-appointed and comfortable rooms that I've stayed at. It's attractive, albeit a bit sterile, since once you're inside, you'll hardly even know you're in France -- you'll just be somewhere in "Hilton-world". ;-)

I'm "with" Jim. It is still a bunch of hassle to find how to get the shuttle, etc. Just take a cab and have a great last night in Paris. How early can it be!
