Are there sleeping "rooms" at Paris de Gualle?

[justbnow]

I am beginning my first Camino in June ~ my flight lands in Paris (PDG) at 10:00pm and I was wondering if there are sleeping "rooms" in the airport? I heard from someone that there were???
I would really like to skip finding a hotel in Paris, and head out to Bayonne the following morning!
Any suggestions or advice?
Much Thanks,
Brenda in Santa Barbara, CA :arrow:

I haven't noticed any, but that's not to say there aren't any. There is a hotel nearby though, and if it was me I would be wanting a proper night's sleep after a long flight. The initial climb from SJPP is one of the hardest stretches on the Camino, and jetlag then a poor night's sleep are not a good recipe for feeling strong as you start the Camino.

There used to be small rooms (bed, bath, shower) called Cocoon in the 90's but a Fodors report from 2010 said it had closed. Don't know of anyplace now.

Nothing will be very cheap in Paris. There are reasonably cheap hotels nearby starting around 40 euros. It won't be the Ritz, but... Buen Camino!

Kayak.com showed the Ibis hotel at the airport for about $120 for one night. Probably the least expensive directly at the airport.

This one seems to have some good deals. It may involve a short taxi ride. Never stayed there, though so can't recommend. Buen Camino!

No need for a taxi. They have a free shuttle service from all terminals.

I think that there are accomodatins for pilgrims in Paris, why don't you cantact one of the Pelerins de St Jacques associations in paris and ask for assistance? The French call it The GR 65 or: les chemines de st jacques

There is accommodation for pilgrims at the Sacre Cour in Montmartre.
