Hello:<BR>Our group is going to be staying in Holiday Inn Pantin-La Villette in Paris (Arron.9)<BR>Can someone tell me how far is this to the main attractions? Is it convenient to metro, coffee place, eatery nearby?<BR>I appreciate your information.

Pantin-La Villete is quite far from the center of Paris. Metro La Villette on Line 7 is 15 stations away from the Louvre and about 25 stations, with 2 transfers from Tour Eiffel.<BR><BR>As any where else in Paris, there are always lots of caf&eacute;s around.

I think that your hotel is actually in the 19th arrondissement from the sound of it. It's near the Parc de la villette which has an interesting Science and Industry museum and panoramic cinema. Apart from that, though, you will find it is very much on the edge of Paris and not particularly convenient for the main sights. But then again, Paris is not such a huge city, and you won't be far from the metro to take you into the city centre.

To Louis -<BR>The information you just shared is the kind of input that I look for at this site and appreciate; it directly answers the question, can make someone's travel planning better, and is done in a civil manner. Much appreciated!
