I am travelling with my family to Eurodisney on the 1st November and we arrive at CDG airport at 09.30am in the morning but because we cannot check into our hotel until 3pm we thought we would go into Paris first. Does anyone know where we can leave our luggaage in the first instance and also how we get into paris and how we get back to the train station to collect our luggage and get into disney

Thanks

Hi Sally,

All of the major train stations in Paris have luggage/baggage storage service, including Gare du Nord, the first station in central Paris along the RER B train line from CDG to Paris.

Within Gare du Nord the baggage storage room is located at the far western end of the station, down one level of stairs, to the right, through an enclosed/grill-gated area where you pass through baggage screening. In French the word for baggage storage is "Consignes". The first picture in the above link for Gare du Nord is looking west (towards the Eurostar end of the station).

From Gare du Nord to Disney see my article on how to take a train from Paris to Euro Disney. In your case, from Gare du Nord, take the RER D to Gare de Lyon (direction Corbeil-Essonnes) and then catch the RER A out to Marne La Vallée, which is the Disney station. You can't mistake this stop, as it's the last on the line. It takes about 35-40 minutes to go from central Paris to Marne La Vallée.

As an aside, you might be able to simply leave your bags with the front desk at the hotel if you arrive early. Then you can spend your day at Disney and check in that evening. Traveling from CDG Airport to Disney by TGV train is much quicker than the city train, taking about 10 minutes.

Best Regards,

Ben
