CYAN HOTEL - Roissy Villepinte Parc des Expositions

I was looking for a bed for the night a few stops outside Paris for less than €45. This hotel was just what I required. It is only a three minutes walk from the RER station Parc des Expositions. Exit the station straight ahead, cross the road and turn left. The hotel is on the second street as you follow the path. Between the two rows if buildings you will see the large sign with the name if the hotel. Registration is in the next door hotel. The ticket price to use the RER is €5, but you would have to pay €2 to use the metro anyway, so considering the better deals you find in the suburbs I think this comment by previous reviewers is a red herring. The shower was small as mentioned in other reviews, but as a male who is 191cm I managed OK. On arrival the bed closest to the bathroom was a little too close to the bathroom. I moved the separation between the two single beds and pushed them together. This gave extra space between the beds and the small bathroom and made the room less claustrophobic. My mattress was comfortable. I would have preferred a firmer pillow but I didn't have neck ache when I woke up. The small table area was perfect for the food I had bought in a supermarket before leaving Gare Du Nord. Travel cutlery and a travel kettle are a good small investment when staying in a budget hotel like this. The hotel next door has a restaurant offering a €20 meal. I looked on the menu out of curiosity, but there was nothing for vegetarians, let alone vegans. When I left the next day I noticed couple of brasseries opposite the railway station, but I don't know the opening hours. The WiFi in the room was mostly good with occasional buffering. For the location, near to Paris and the airport, (as well as the exhibition centre) it is a good budget hotel. I wouldn't want to pay more than €50 a night however. As a plus the tourist tax (taxe du sejour) is a very reasonable €1.13 per person per night.

The check in was super quick, the lobby is quite pleasant and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The breakfast was amazing, very good value for money. The hotel is perfect for those going to the parc des expositions as it is quite literally across the street from it ! I was a bit scared because of all the negative comments but don't mind them, for this value and for those on a business trip it is perfect.

I like most about the place, you get clean towels every day, coffee, milk and peace of mind, to be honest when I booked I didn't realised that was the same place I went for breakfast some time ago, I walked in for breakfast I was asked to pay before being served and yet well eating a couple came for breakfast they were served and pay after, I find that " racist " for the first time in Ireland I was asked to pay before self-service, the gentleman standing at the door to the dining room, for that reason during my stay I didn't eat at the place went out for food.

Location is great for access from CdG by RER B, though didn't find cheap way of doing it for just the two stops. The return the next morning to CdG was fine. Room was decent, and linen very clean. Good shower.
