Located to the north of Paris, the student residence hall is very easily accessible by car. From the north to the south, from east to west, the A86, the Greater Paris Region ring road, offers easy connections from the residence hall to France and Europe.
To the north: from Calais, Lille or Lens, the A15 French motorway (or E15 or E17 European motorways) connect directly to the A86 ring road: from there, take Exit 3 Saint-Denis – Centre and follow Route de la Courneuve on the N186 national road, then turn left onto the N1 and take Avenue Paul Vaillant Couturier. Continuing on the N1, turn right onto Rue Danielle Casanova and follow this to Boulevard Anatole France; you have arrived!
To the east: from the German border, the A4 French motorway (E50) also connects directly to the regional ring road: take Exit 9 - Saint Denis - La Plaine / Stade de France, and follow Rue Danielle Casanova until you reach your residence hall.
To the south: from Spain or Bordeaux, take the A20 motorway (E9), in the direction of Paris via the A71 / E9, then the A10 (E5). You can choose between turning off onto the A86 regional ring road in the direction of Rungis-Choisy then Créteil until Exit 9, or continuing until you reach the Paris ring road and take the direction East then North (or the Boulevard Extérieur).
To the west: from the A11 (E50) motorway from Le Mans, you can access the A86 ring road. So make a detour via Versailles and the N10 national road, then the N12, to link up with the A86: in the direction of Chesnay-St-Cloud, take Exit 8b - Saint Denis – Centre to connect directly with Boulevard Anatole France, where your residence hall is located.
