 From Beauvais airport to Paris city
I will visit Paris soon and arrive on
Beauvais Airport. I read that there is a bus shuttle to Paris city, could you please tell me more about it and which possibilities I have to come to
my hostel (is there a train or any public transport eg to Montmartre at
about 22 o'clock?). Thanks a lot for your answer. (2007, oct. 25)
B+B or hotel in Porte Maillot vicinity
I would love to come to Paris in August and as I
haven't been before I'm a little apprehensive about my whereabouts. I'm arriving in Beauvais Airport and understand I need to take the
shuttle to Porte Maillot. What I want to know is where to find a reasonable B+B or hotel in the
vicinity and how to get there. I have looked at many but they don't state how far they are and the
maps of the area they show are no use to me as none of the streets mean
anything, I just need to know exactly where in Porte Maillot they are
and how far from my bus terminus. This information would be much appreciated. (2008, jan. 24)
From Porte Maillot to my hotel, rue Mansart
I know this has kinda been asked before but here it goes : I'm
traveling into Beauvais airport next week and I know that the
shuttle bus brings me to Porte Maillot. Unfortunately I need to get to
the Royal Mansart Hotel, 1 Rue Mansart. I know there is a metro close
to where the shuttle bus drops me off but other than that I'm lost.
I'm really hoping you can help me. Thanks. (2008, jun. 4)
From Paris Montparnasse station to Nantes by train
Thank you so much for getting back to me. I've been looking through
the internet for the last 3 hours but couldn't really understand the
system. I'm sorry if I'm being cheeky but I have one more question for you. If
you can't answer it, don't worry and thank you again for giving me the
metro details in your previous answer. Here's the question : I'm travelling the next day
(early) to Nantes and I was wondering how I would get there, I know
that the hotel is 2km from St. Lazare Station and that I should be able
to get a train no problem from there. Is that right? Thanks. (2008, jun. 4)
From Porte Maillot to my hotel, rue du Montparnasse
Hi, I'm arriving in Beauvais Airport and I understand that I need to
take the shuttle bus to Porte Maillot. I've booked a room at Unic
Renoir Saint Germain Hotel, 56 rue du Montparnasse, 75014 Paris but I don't
know how to get there by public transport such as metro or RER. I'm
really hoping you can help me, thank you very much! (2008, jun. 13)
From Beauvais airport to Nantes, via Paris Porte Maillot bus terminal
Hi, a friend of mine is travelling straight from Paris to Nantes end of the month. She was wondering what the correction route would
be to go from Porte Maillot to Nantes? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for all the help you have already given me. (2008, jun. 17)

 From Paris Orly airport to Deauville by train
Hello,
That's not a short ride  , it will take you about 3 hours. You can not avoid crossing Paris.
You have to join Saint-Lazare station from Orly Airport, and then get a train to Deauville.
To join Saint Lazare train station, follow the following steps. But if you arrive after 11PM at Orly, you have no other choice to catch a taxi (about €35).
Here are the different steps to go to Saint Lazare by train:
From Orly Airport, after having bought a single ticket to Paris that is about €12, get the "Orlyval", a short tramway that gets you to Antony (about 10 minutes from Orly to Antony).
Once arrived at Antony, get the suburb train "RER B" to the north (direction "Aeroport Charles de Gaulle", the other parisian airport) and get off at "Chatelet les halles" station (about 20 minutes).
Here, get the metro line 14 To saint Lazare (end of the line, about 5 minutes). Walk upstairs to enter the main train station.
Once you are in Saint-Lazare station, buy a ticket to "Trouville-Deauville". SNCF service has 4 or 5 trains a day between paris and Trouville-Deauville. About 2 hours and €50. Timetables are available on www.voyages-sncf.com

just inform your hostel that you will arrive around 23 o'clock so that
it does not think you cancelled...

The
fastest way to go to Nantes from Paris is to take the TGV (french fast train)
at Montparnasse station, the train trip is about 2h long.
To go to Montparnasse station from rue mansart, take metro line 13 at
"place de clichy" station (close to your hotel), direction "chatillon
montrouge" and stop at "montparnasse bienvenue" station.
You can not get a train to Nantes at St

You may buy your TGV ticket on the train national company (sncf) : http://www.tgv-europe.com/en/home/, the first train leaves paris at 6:30am.
We advise you to book your ticket in advance since some destinations are sometimes full !
Moreover, if you buy your ticket through Internet but not long enough before your trip, it will not be possible to receive it by mail. You will have to collect your ticket from an automatic ticket machine in Montparnasse train station, with the bank card used for the payment (Take care: in this case, keep your reservation number and all necessary information that will be given to you at the end of the booking, and moreover schedule some extra time since these machines are very slow).
To go to Montparnasse station from Porte Maillot, take metro line 1 until "Champs-Elysees - Clemenceau" station ("Chateau de Vincennes" direction). You will stop at this station to get the Metro line 13 for a final stop at "montparnasse bienvenue" station ("chatillon
montrouge" direction). The metro trip from Porte Maillot to Montparnasse train station is about 45 minutes, including walks through metro corridors. You will find a paris metro stations map here (line 1 is the thin yellow line that crosses Paris from west to east, and line 13 is the light blue line that crosses Paris from North to South).
Enjoy your trip,
Paris City guide.
