Roissy in a nutshell
Roissy-en-France is a village in the Val-d'Oise department, north of Paris. The airport that carries its name is a separate transport hub, not a synonym for the whole municipality. Most travelers only see the terminals, yet the village has a Renaissance church, the remains of an old château and small parks.
This guide covers both sides: Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport with its terminals, the way into Paris by RER B, bus or taxi, parking and airport hotels, plus Disneyland Paris, Parc Astérix, Chantilly and Senlis. If you have hours between flights, start with the Paris day trips and layover tours. Prices are in euros as listed in 2026, and they change.
Our picks: tours and transfers around Roissy-CDG
After a delayed landing, the private transfer that counts its 90 minutes of waiting from touchdown is the safest way into Paris. With a long layover, the four-hour tour covers the sights, and the Disneyland package suits families who want transport and tickets in one booking.
Hand-picked tours, booked through GetYourGuide. Prices are indicative starting prices in euros (as of October 2026). Tap a tour for live availability and the current price in your currency.

The village of Roissy-en-France
The church of Saint-Éloi dates from around 1570 and has been a protected monument since 1942. Check the opening hours for the interior before you plan a visit. Parts of the former château survive, in particular the stables. Do not expect a château museum.
The town hall sits in a house from the 1930s. In 2025 the Place Pays de France became a green pedestrian area. The town hall park and the Parc des Cinq Continents with its orangery make a short, quiet walk.
If you drive, note the local rules: continuous parking in the municipality is limited to 48 hours, and blue zones allow 2 hours with a parking disc, Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Check the sign at your space. The village is not a free long-stay car park.
Airport or village: where to sleep
The two locations are not the same trip.
Hotels at the airport are reached on the free CDGVAL line, for example near Terminal 2 and the station, at Roissypole and in the Parking PR area. Hotels in Roissy-en-France or in Le Mesnil-Amelot need their own transfer, and each hotel organizes its own shuttle. Ask your hotel about price, hours and night service. A hotel near the airport does not mean a short walk to your terminal. The hotels page lists the zones.
Flight noise is a fact of life around the runways. Public flight-track and noise-measurement maps exist for the area, with a delay of 30 minutes, but they do not tell you how loud a given room is.

Disneyland Paris →Roissy: frequently asked questions
Is Roissy the same as Charles de Gaulle Airport?
No. Roissy-en-France is a village in the Val-d'Oise. The airport is a separate hub that uses its name, and some of it lies in neighboring municipalities. The airport page covers the airport, this page the village.
How do I get from CDG to Paris?
The RER B is the standard rail option, with an airport ticket at €14 in 2026. Day buses 350 and 351 and night buses N140 and N143 also run, and a taxi has a flat fare of €56 to the right bank and €65 to the left bank. See CDG to Paris.
Can I go from the airport to Disneyland Paris?
Yes. The TGV runs from Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 2 TGV to Marne-la-Vallée-Chessy, and the fastest train ride is 10 minutes. A private shuttle costs €24 per adult each way in 2026 and takes about 45 minutes. Details are on the Disneyland Paris page.
Is there anything to see in Roissy-en-France?
There is the Saint-Éloi church, the remains of the château stables, the town hall park and the Parc des Cinq Continents. It is a short walk, not a full-day destination.
Can I park in the village while I travel?
Not for a holiday. Continuous parking is limited to 48 hours in the municipality, and blue zones are limited to 2 hours with a disc on weekdays. Use an airport car park instead, see CDG parking.
Is Roissy.org the official site of the airport or the village?
No. This guide is not run by or connected to Groupe ADP, the municipality of Roissy-en-France, RATP, SNCF or any tour operator, car park or hotel.
