Charles De Gaulle Airport to Metro Defense Grand Arche

We will be arriving at 13:45 on February 13 at the CDG airport. We need to get to the Renaissance Paris hotel La Defense. I see that it%26#39;s by the train station/metro stop Defense Grande Arche. What is the best way to get to this stop? Is there a metro or train to this station from the airport? We%26#39;ll only have carry on luggage, so that won%26#39;t be a problem. Also, any insight to staying at the Renaissance Hotel La Defense? I see that it%26#39;s only a couple of stops on the Metro from Charles De Gaulle Etoile, so staying out there shouldn%26#39;t be a problem for us...Let me know if it would pose a problem.



Thank you in advance for all of your help!

Oops, I see that it is six stops from Etoile...no problem! I hope!

It is just one stop by RER from Charles de Gaulle Etoile.





From the airport, you would just take the RER B to Châtelet-Les Halles and transfer to the RER A that will take you to La Défense. A ticket should cost about 10€.

Sounds easy! Thanks!

Access to the hotel will involve a bit of walking since it is .1 mile from the train/metro station. You will have to walk across the plaza and then between office buildings to cross the road between you and the hotel. Suggest you go to the marriott site and check the overhead maps and directions.





Metro takes about 10 minute longer than if you were in the center but you always get a seat.





Hotel is very nice and popular with Marriott points people. We stayed there several years ago.
