Shangri-La Paris occupies the former Bonaparte residence on Avenue d'Iéna, with direct Eiffel Tower views from many suites. CDG is 33 km away (40–55 min); Orly is 19 km (30–45 min). Your English-speaking chauffeur tracks your flight, meets you at arrivals with a personalised name sign and brings your Mercedes V-Class to 10 Avenue d'Iéna — where the Shangri-La doormen receive you against a backdrop of the Trocadéro and the Eiffel Tower.
Where are we going?

The Shangri-La entrance is set back from Avenue d'Iéna with the Trocadéro 200 metres east. Your chauffeur times the arrival so the view frames it.
Our preferred routes from both airports deliver the Eiffel Tower view in the final minute of the drive — a small detail Shangri-La guests notice.
We coordinate Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese or Japanese-speaking chauffeurs on request — matching the Shangri-La heritage standard.
The Shangri-La is one of the closest palaces to Versailles. Book a full-day excursion and your chauffeur waits at the château gates.
Our chauffeurs handle Shangri-La arrivals at the brand's tempo — punctual, gracious, discreet, with the small attentions Pacific-luxury guests notice.
For guests extending into Switzerland or Belgium, we handle V-Class transfers to Geneva (5h) and Brussels (3h) with the same chauffeur door-to-door.
All transfers are in a Mercedes V-Class with an English-speaking chauffeur, real-time flight tracking and 60 minutes of free waiting after landing. Prices below are public starting rates — your final quote is confirmed instantly when you enter your exact dates in the booking form.

Shangri-La Paris is the Pacific palace of the city. Built as the private residence of Prince Roland Bonaparte (Napoleon's grand-nephew) and converted in 2010 by the Hong Kong-based Shangri-La group, the hotel offers a different kind of luxury: Pacific service standards in a 19th-century Parisian mansion, with the largest Eiffel Tower-facing suites of any palace in Paris.
KAR GO chauffeurs handle Shangri-La arrivals with the precision the brand expects. The Avenue d'Iéna entrance is on a quiet stretch between the Trocadéro and the Champs-Élysées, with light traffic and well-staged drop-off. Our drivers pull in cleanly, hand off luggage personally, and clear in under two minutes. For VIP arrivals we coordinate via the courtyard at the rear with the Shangri-La security team briefed.

Avenue d'Iéna is one of the quietest grand avenues in the 16th arrondissement — wide, tree-lined, light traffic. The Shangri-La entrance is set back slightly from the street, with the Trocadéro Square 200 metres east and the Eiffel Tower visible from the upper-floor windows. Driving up to the Shangri-La feels different from the 1st or 8th arrondissement palaces: less Belle Époque, more grand-residence.
From CDG we use the A1, the northern Périphérique to Porte Maillot, then Avenue Foch and Avenue Kléber to Trocadéro — a clean route that gives you the Arc de Triomphe view at the halfway mark. From Orly the southern Périphérique to Porte d'Auteuil, then Boulevard Murat to Trocadéro — slightly longer but consistently faster outside rush hour. Both routes are timed so that the Eiffel Tower appears in the final minute of the drive.

Shangri-La guests use chauffeur service heavily because the 16th arrondissement is residential and walking distances to Paris attractions are real (Eiffel Tower 12 minutes, Champs-Élysées 20 minutes, Saint-Germain 30 minutes). Hourly bookings typically cover Avenue Montaigne shopping circuits, gallery viewings in the 8th, evening dinners across Paris, and theatre or opera evenings.
For day excursions: Versailles is 35 minutes from the Shangri-La via Boulevard Murat — one of the closer palaces to the château. Giverny (1h15), Champagne vineyards (1h30 to Reims), and Loire Valley châteaux (2 to 3h) are all popular. Many Shangri-La Asian guests also book combined Paris-Geneva and Paris-Brussels V-Class transfers when extending their European stays.

KAR GO chauffeurs serve every major Paris palace and 5-star Heritage hotel. Explore our dedicated transfer pages for Shangri-La's closest neighbours and other landmark addresses.

Everything you need to know about private chauffeur transfers between Paris airports and Shangri-La Paris.
A pre-booked private transfer is the fastest, most predictable option from Charles de Gaulle to Shangri-La Paris. KAR GO offers fixed-rate transfers in a Mercedes V-Class with an English-speaking chauffeur, real-time flight tracking, and 60 minutes of free waiting after landing. The drive takes 35 to 55 minutes door-to-door depending on traffic and time of day. Your chauffeur meets you at the arrivals hall with a personalised name sign — no queues, no taxi rank.
Yes — for arrivals at Shangri-La Paris we confirm your ETA with the concierge desk directly so the bellhop is ready when you pull in. This is especially valuable for guests arriving outside standard check-in hours, for VIPs requiring discreet handover, and for stays where the suite needs to be staged before you walk in.
Yes — KAR GO offers continuity bookings where the same English-speaking chauffeur is assigned to you for the duration of your stay. After the airport transfer, your chauffeur knows your preferences (language, route choices, music, AC settings) and runs them automatically. Hourly bookings or day rates are available, with the same Mercedes V-Class waiting at the Shangri-La valet whenever you call down.
Fixed rates start from €110 (Orly), €130 (CDG), €110 (Le Bourget), and €175 (Beauvais) for a Mercedes V-Class with English-speaking chauffeur. All prices are confirmed at booking with no surge pricing, no night surcharges, and no hidden fees. Enter your route in the booking form for an instant exact price.
Yes — your chauffeur handles all luggage personally and coordinates the handover with the Shangri-La bellhop or valet at the entrance. There is no extra charge for luggage of any volume that fits in the V-Class boot (capacity: 7 full-size suitcases). For oversized items (golf bags, ski equipment, instruments) mention them in your booking notes and we will confirm capacity in advance.
Yes — we recommend booking your return transfer at the same time as your arrival, especially for tight departure schedules. We monitor your departure flight in case of schedule changes and pick you up from Shangri-La Paris 3 hours before international flight time (or 2 hours for European departures). Same chauffeur, same Mercedes V-Class, predictable pricing for both legs.
Yes — KAR GO serves every major Paris palace and 5-star Heritage hotel. Our chauffeurs handle inter-hotel transfers (typically under 10 minutes by V-Class), discreet evening pickups across the 1st, 8th and 16th arrondissements, and combined bookings if your trip spans multiple Paris addresses. Dedicated transfer pages exist for 4 neighbouring palaces — see the section below.
Shangri-La Paris is located at 10 Avenue d'Iéna, 75116 Paris, in the 16th arrondissement. The district of Avenue d'Iéna — Trocadéro is one of the most central and most coveted addresses in Paris, with most major attractions, restaurants and luxury maisons within a 10 to 20 minute V-Class drive. Walking distances vary — your chauffeur or the concierge can advise on whether to walk or call for the car.
