Marnee la Valle to Paris?? help!

Will be going into and out of Marnee la Valle (Disneyland) station, but have a few questions before booking accomodation in Paris...
1. Easiest way to get from Marnee la Valle to Paris for major sights
2. Is there a family hotel (a friend mentioned Citadine?) on the train line from Disney land to Paris??
Thank you !! Merci!!

Can't help on the hotel front, but your first question is easy. Marne la Vallée is on the RER way, which is a good link to Auber (near where the big shops are), Charles de Gaulle Etoile (the Arc de Triomphe stop) and Chatelet (where you can change for a couple of stops' ride to Concorde, the Louvre, and plenty of other places).

Hope this helps a bit.

There is a Citadines on rue Richelieu which is about 10 minutes' walk from Châtelet. There is another near Opéra which is also on the RER line. Not quite sure why you want a hotel on the train line from Marne la Vallée to Paris. However, there is a Mercure with family rooms at Val de Fontenay, which is 5 stations from Châtelet. It's just behind the RER station. It's next to a big shopping centre. It's used by a lot of tour buses because it's cheaper than being in Paris. It is about 20 minutes from central Paris. Hope that helps.

Thank you all.. I'm not sure why we want to be on the train line from Disney to Paris either, just took so long to figure out the eurostar and disney accomodations, we are trying to make it easy to visit paris and get back to marnee la valle to leave france.. a friend recommended citadine- bastille marais but it is booked. We do not speak French, so thought we would try and stay near something we would become familiar with..now we are just looking for convenient and kind of affordable...

Now would be a good time for you to get familiar with how the Paris and metropolitan area métro/RER/bus system works. Use the official website www.ratp.fr. Here is an interactive map of the system you can look at:

Since not all of the RATP website can be changed to English you can use the English language websites www.vianavigo.com or www.transilien.com for further assistance.

There are plenty of suite hotels in the area, which is what Citadines is.
