Luggage storage at train station

Hello, We are planning on flying from Nice to Orly, from there to take the train into Paris and spend the day in the city. Then leave that evening to CDG hotel and fly out the next morning. My question is where can I keep our luggage while we spend the day in Paris? I see the Gare du Nord station has storage, is there any other locations that are convenient?

Gare du Nord is a pretty good spot to leave it; you can take the RER train directly to CDG from there at the end of the day to get out to your hotel. I assume you can get from Orly to Gare du Nord pretty easily as well, not sure.

I see that RER B line goes from Antony to Gare du Nord and then same line to CDG.

Take your luggage to the hotel before going into the city. They'll have storage, free or paid, depending on the hotel.

That's a lot of time to waste - two hours? - to go all the way out to CDG to the hotel, drop the luggage, and then come all the way back into the city, then go back to CDG a few hours later. I'd probably pay to leave it at Gare du Nord, too.

Oh, sorry, missed the Orly part. Yes, too far. Gare du Nord.

Why not fly from Nice to CDG and save yourself a lot of time and trouble? Check in, leave bags, go to Paris. The CDG Sheraton is right next to the RER station and steps from flight check-in counters.

I could fly to CDG, it's not that much more expensive.

Thanks Spaame, I was stuck on the cheapest flight and didn't scroll down.

I see that the flight to Cdg is in the evening, or has a connection and is more than the Orly. I will have to stick with Orly.
