Roissy Bus from CDG
My husband and I are going to Paris in May. We will arrive at CDG Terminal 2A via Continental Airlines and plan to take the Roissy Bus into the city. Our hotel is the Parc Saint Severin on Rue de la Parcheminerie 22 in the 5e.
Can someone please tell me how and where to get the bus? I assume we will need to get a taxi from the delivery point? We will each have a 22" wheeled suitcase and a carry on.

Maybe someone can tell you exactly, because I don't remember as I just follow the signs. They have signs in the airport directing you to the various transportation options. I think there are several points as to where to get it, but sometimes they change and they move the "door" or "hall" where some bus stops are, so you do kind of need to follow the signs. I think it is on the maps at www.adp.fr
However, I was mainly going to suggest that for your destination, it would be better to take the RER commuter train to the St Michel stop which is only a couple blocks from where you are going. YOu could then just walk from there.
Taking the metro from the Opera to that location isn't easy, I'd just take a taxi. You'd have to transfer once or twice. If you took the metro to Reaumur-Sebastopol and transferred to line 4, you'd then end up at St Michel just as if you took the RER to begin with. Or you'd take the metro line 7 to Jussieu, and transfer to line 10 and get out at Cluny, which is very near St Severin, also.

In Terminal 2A walk through the terminal until you get to McDonalds. The Roissybus stop is just outside of the terminal. On the pavement, you will see OPERA painted. You can purchase your tickets from the driver. We usually have only carry-on luggage so we take the metro from Opera. There are taxis waiting outside of the metro station.
To take the Roissybus back to CDG, the bus stop is by American Express on Rue Scribe. Again, you can buy your tickets from the driver. The trip from Paris to CDG will not take as much time because Terminal 2A is the first stop at CDG.

Just wanted to thank <b>Dorothy01</b> for her perfectly clear & concise info re the Roissybus. Our hotel was close to Opera so her posting made our airport transport so simple. And talk about easy to locate landmarks -- McDonalds & AX! Thank you Dorothy.
