Directly connected to Terminal 1, the Holiday Inn Express at Paris – Charles de Gaulle (CDG) Airport, an IHG hotel, has recently opened to provide guests with easy access to one of the world's busiest airports as well as speedy transport links into central Paris.

Gone are the days of waiting in the airport for a ten hour lay-over, or waking up at the crack of dawn to catch an early morning flight. The newly-opened Holiday Inn Express Paris – CDG Airport is the perfect destination for travellers who want to make their next trip that little bit easier.

The newly built 305-room Holiday Inn Express 'Next Generation' property has been designed with guests' needs in mind. Each room features wide beds with noise-absorbing headboards, bed-side built-in USB ports, plasma screens that can be connected to personal devices to stream media, a power shower and free Wi-Fi available throughout the hotel.

In the modern public spaces, guests can also enjoy an Express Start Breakfast™ included in their room rate, offering a selection of hot and continental food. The Express Café & Bar is also open 24/7 so there's always a place for jet-lagged travellers, late arrivers or early risers to grab a bite. The hotel also boasts naturally lit meeting spaces which are available for business meetings.
