How to get to the venue
Stade de France ( located in Saint Denis):
Submay line 13 and RER (express train) line D
the subway station is closer to the stadium than the RER, but the way from the RER is easier, and the RER goes faster than the subway.
Very difficult by car, you must book a carpark place on ticketnet.

Recommended hotels
Recommended bars/restaurants
Some girls bar - 43 Rue de Lappe - 75011 Paris
Small but nice and not too expensive Stones bar : stones music, stones artwork
Located very close to the " Place de la Bastille " Lot of subway line stopping at Bastille.
If you look for french food, you have " les brasseries " ( at least 30-40 EUR ) like the very well known " La Coupole" close to the Gare Montparnasse.
Cheap french food is at " Chartier ", but it's crowded if you're not there early. No reservations possible.
Of course, the traditional tourist traps : " Hard Rock Caf� " ( subway station " Grands Boulevards "), " Planet Hollywood " (on the Champs Elys�es, equal distance from " George V " and " Franklin D Roosevelt " subway stations)
