There is zero heat retention in this station :-/ Plus, the line 7 is old and slow. I would say avoid both if you can help it. read more

So, this is apparently the most photographed station on the Paris Metro, though it probably has…read moremore to do with the entrance (which isn't unique) and not so much the pictures that are on the stairs as you descend. It's a nice station, but somewhat overrated.
The deepest station in all of Paris city, at approx 300 feet below the ground! Mmhmm…read more One of my favorite metro stations, primarily owing to the magic surrounding this station. Did you, dear reader, know that there was an actual abbey in this location during the Middle Ages? 300 feet below this station, there actually was. Gypsum (a soft stone) mines were ubiquitous back in the day. There existed a vast network of quarry tunnels, which, in time, did need to be filled by the city by high-pressured concrete. Needless, the mines closed in 1840's, The actual metro platform was built at bedrock, 285!! steps below Place des Abbesses (where the station is located).. yup! Each Art Nouveau stop was designed by architect Hector Guimard, and really define Paris as an art haven. The first metro opened in Paris in 1900!

I gave Gare du Nord a 1-star review in 2010, and honestly, most of what I said still kind of holds…read more But the station is beautiful, and I believe it has, at least, stopped deploying those ridiculous unusable ticketing machines. We went through Gare du Nord to go to London last month, and EuroStar has actually gotten worse. I suspect this has more to do with Brexit than the train station, but it was not fun waiting in that line. It got extra unfun when my three-year-old told me he was feeling sick, then threw up all over the floor. So you know what, I'm calling it even. Gare du Nord is annoying but useful and gorgeous, and my offspring has now vomited on the floor (I ddi clean it up). I'm also giving myself permission to skip reviewing the Paul stall, where my mom picked up some pretty decent pastries and sandwiches. Three stars, and we'll see each other next time.
We came to this rail hub in Paris for our high speed train to Amsterdam. We were on the…read more"Pre-tour" portion of our river cruise and had to go to Zamdam to catch our ship. That required us to get the main station on Amsterdam, then catch a bus. What can I say. It was your typical train station with many trains ready to go and you could also catch a subway here. It was easy to maneuver through and while I was waiting I went for a coffee and a pastry. That's the special thing about Paris... even in the train station was good coffee and great pasteries. I noticed lots of Police patroling the area which definately helps make you feel just a bit more safe and comfortable. Boarding the train was quick and easy and they left right on time. KUDOs to the team here at the Gare du Nord.

I love this metro. The 12 is my favorite line. I think it's the smell that I like because it's an…read moreold line. It smells like oil grease and is never really busy. I guarantee you that 87 percent of the time you will be able to find a seat on this metro. There's a rat that lives in the middle of the track ( I forgot his name) but it always amazes me how he knows exactly when the metro is coming and then he jumps back into his hole and waits for it to pass by. This metro isn't as glamorous as the 1 or Louvre- rivoli but It can take you to Pigalle and also to the left bank or montparnasse, saint Lazare train stations. This particular metro brings you right on to rue chateaudun and is a small walk to Trinity and saint George.

I actually hurried down here because despite a wander through the Tulieries being quite a pleasant experience. Anyway, this is a station that pretty much runs from the Louvre all the way up to La Defense, and the Avenue Champs d'Elysee. Like most of the stations on the metro, it isn't all that deep, meaning that getting to the platform is pretty quick.

So MANY steps This…read moremetro station was near the hotel. Very easy to use. But.......from the north from the hotel there is an uphill walk and a flight of stairs to get to the entrance. Inside the station there's four flights of stairs to get down to the platform. At the entrance there are kiosks to purchase tickets. These tickets are good for metro, bus and tram. The kiosk takes credit cards and cash. There offer several languages. If you are in the city for several days, I recommend the T+ ten pack. The pack makes each ticket $1.80. Actually all the Paris metro stations were clean and easy to use. Good signage for lines and directions. An electric board at the platform tells you how many minutes the next two trains are out. My last recommendations- try to avoid rush hours, and load the Paris RATP app. It's easy to use and was a great help finding the lines to take. Rode it alone without issues.

Mind you, since it is located in the sleazy part of Paris, it does provide a reasonable way to escape. Okay, why was I in this part of Paris, well, it was to go and visit Le Chat Noir, so yeah, I do have a reasonable excuse.

My nephew and I had planned a weekend trip to Luxembourg, and this station was the origination of the 2.5 hour high-speed trip, beginning early on a Saturday morning. We came from different places in Paris using Metro, and met up here. The walk from the Metro part of the station to the main central holding area takes a bit of time, with need to closely follow signs pointing to Gare de l'Est. About 24 minutes before the scheduled departure of our train, the platform number came up on the big board. At that point, we used the QR code from our purchased ticket to pass through the security gate of the platform. Then it was a long outdoor walk parallel to the train until one finds the correct car. We left right on-time. We came back to the same station from Luxembourg, and it was a simple matter of reversing direction back to the Metro side of the station to get back to our dorm/hotel.

Anyway, yeah, this station is quite handy, especially if you want to check out the Hotel de Ville.
Where to start with the TGV train…read more First, logistically on the surface it appears to be an amazing option. You fly in, go through customs, get on the train, have a short trip, and you're at Disneyland Paris. But the reality is it's hard to find the train because there's no signage that lists TGV, just signs with a picture of a train, so we walked toward it hoping it was the correct area. The trains themselves also lack signage. So we got on a TGV train at the correct time, in the correct place, thinking it was our train. But we had tickets for a car that wasn't there, so in the end our first class tickets were useless and we sat next to the bathroom. There was no announcement in English so we used Google Maps to confirm we were in fact, in the correct spot, but for a bit we were worried we'd gotten on a random train and had no idea where we were going because there are 0 attendants in the cars to ask. In the train cars the aisles are small and tend to be cramped because a lot of people have luggage that blocks the walkways, so generally the navigating experience simply wasn't pleasant when compared to a bullet train like in Japan. All in all, we don't plan to go back to Disneyland Paris because the transit to the park was so difficult - I generally find Ubers easier (and in this case cheaper) to use - so overall I recommend hiring a private car to take you to and from Disneyland Paris and foregoing the TGV train.

There are signs easily pointing you in the right direction to where you need to go and there is a train station really close to the airport, which is a huge thing for me.

All in all, I've been to this airport a few times and its always a smooth transit.
