Waste disposalComfortInternetTo coincide with the beginning of the summer holidays, the family went to Disneyland in Paris. The ticket was quite simple and easy to book. Of course, it was not a one-way ticket. So we had to make a stopover in Mannheim. Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience with the comfort, as the seats were demolished and uncomfortable. Also, the waste disposal was once again non-existent and the bins overflowed. Unfortunately, the wifi was constantly interrupted, so I could hardly use my mobile phone to relax. At least the staff were very friendly and helpful.
Advantages
Very punctualBeautiful trainGood comfortDisadvantages
The ride is a bit longWe thought long and hard about whether we wanted to take the train from Munich to Paris, as the journey time is quite long. However, we can say that we would do this trip again at any time. Despite the long distance, the train was on time almost to the minute. You could take as much luggage as you wanted (compared to the plane) and the seats were super comfortable. The train was also really clean and the train staff were nice. All in all, it was a really great trip.
Advantages
Good internetAir conditioningPunctualityIt was a great journey in second class, which I can recommend. I didn't notice anything bad, so I give it five stars. My seat was very comfortable. The internet was very good. The service was good, so what I ordered was brought quickly and it was very tasty, cheap and fresh. The staff were also very nice and friendly. The volume on the train was very pleasant and so I was able to fall asleep a little. There was air conditioning to make sure it didn't get hot. A wonderful journey, everything ran on time.
