Dietary Requirements:
If you have any special dietary requirements, e.g. gluten-free, nut-allergy, vegetarian, please contact
Sue Egan via [email protected] as soon as possible stating your requirements.
How to get there:
Train – can be more convenient / reliable than flying if you have access to a high speed train, e.g.
Eurostar from London. Total journey time to 1 rue d'Astorg is around 30 minutes from Paris Gare du
Nord via Metro (take line 4 from Gare du Nord to Strasbourg-Saint-Denis, then line 9 to SaintAugustin), which includes 5 minutes walking.
Airports – Charles de Galle is around 25km from the centre of Paris with a good rail link (RER B (blue))
from terminals 2 and 3; if you arrive at terminal 1 there is a free shuttle bus to terminal 3. The train
cost is around €10 (one way) and the journey should take around 35 minutes to Châtelet les Halles
where you can take line 14 to Madeleine (10 minutes) and walk to 1 rue d'Astorg (5 minutes). Taxis
are readily available and cost around €50 - €70 depending on traffic and can take over an hour.
Orly is around 13km from the centre of Paris and is again linked by the RER B (blue) train, this time
from Antony station, which can be reached directly from the Orlyval driverless shuttle. The combined
cost is around €12 and the journey should take around 20 minutes in total (10 minutes on Orlyval and
8 minutes on RER B) to Châtelet les Halles where you can take line 14 to Madeleine (10 minutes) and
walk to 1 rue d'Astorg (5 minutes). Taxis are readily available and cost around €45 - €60 depending
on traffic and should take around 50 minutes.
Nearest metro stations – Saint-Augustin (line 9), Miromesnil (lines 9, 13) and Madeleine (lines 8, 12,
