The Airside CDG Airport Hotel: YotelAir Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport
YotelAir is the only accommodation option located inside the airport’s facilities. The airside hotel lies at the gate L (S3) of T2E, at the end of the free Instant Paris lounge. Thus, the hotel is accessible only to passengers with a boarding pass for gates K, L, and M of T2E. In other words, the only travelers who can check in to YotelAir are the ones awaiting an international flight to a non-Schengen destination.
Which are YotelAir Hotel’s Amenities?
YotelAir Charles de Gaulle has 80 small rooms -cabins as they are called- equipped with nothing but the necessary amenities. Still, the cabins are cozy, clean, and pleasantly decorated, kitted with pulled workstations for business travelers. The hotel offers free Wi-Fi and has a lounge area -Komyuniti lounge- with super-fast Wi-Fi and a small drink and dine selection upon payment. On the other hand, passengers who are simply interested in taking a shower can book a shower cabin. The hotel provides those clients with shampoos, gel supplies as well as towels, and access to bathroom facilities.
Our tip 1: YotelAir is located after the security control area. Thus, only hand luggage is allowed at the hotel.
Our tip 2: Due to the hotel’s location (airside), to book a room, you’ll have to hand over your passport, your booking confirmation, and your boarding pass.
How Much does a YotelAir Cabin Cost?
YotelAir cabins can be booked by the hour. However, a 4-hour minimum stay limit is applied. As a result, you can’t book a room for less than 4 hours (meaning that you’ll be charged for 4 hours, even if you check out earlier). In general terms, the price for a cabin is around 250€ (250$). A shower cabin costs as much as 20€ (20$) for one person and 30€ (30$) for two passengers and allows a 45-minute use of the hotel’s premises (previous reservations aren’t accepted, though). Payments are accepted only via valid credit or debit cards.
The Adjacent to CDG Airport T2 Hotel: Sheraton Paris Airport Hotel
Sheraton Paris Airport may not be located inside the airport terminals. Still, it lies next to T2 and specifically close to T2E. Thus, the hotel is to be found at the airport’s landside, accessible to all CDG passengers. The hotel is connected to T2 via the N1 free shuttle, running every 7-15 minutes around the clock, while T2E is a 5-minute walk from Sheraton’s doors. On the other hand, terminals 1 and 3 can be reached via the free CDGVAL train from the T2 free shuttle train station.
Our tip: The hotel is situated outside the airport terminal. Thus, some passengers may need a visa to check in to Sheraton.
