VolumeVery full trainI travelled to Paris with my girlfriend for a short trip. We travelled on the Deutsche Bahn. All in all, the journey was very pleasant and went by quickly. The train was on time and didn't cause any problems. As far as I know there was no on-board restaurant on the train, which wasn't a problem as we had drinks with us and therefore didn't need anything, the service was very good and the price-performance ratio of the ticket was fair. All in all, it was a journey that I remember very fondly and also because of the pleasant journey with Deutsche Bahn.

The train arrived on time in Mannheim and also reached Paris on time. The journey was quite pleasant, but unfortunately the background noise on the train was very high and it was difficult to relax.
The service on board was friendly and courteous.
Unfortunately, the cleanliness of the train left a lot to be desired.

PunctualityModern trainspeedCleanlinessComfortThe journey on the TGV from Mannheim to Paris was the last journey on my trip and it was great. The TGV was modern, clean and offered spacious seats, which made travelling relaxed even on longer journeys. The punctuality was particularly positive, which made the arrival in Paris stress-free. The friendly staff provided good service and the quiet ambience contributed to a relaxed atmosphere. The journey combines speed with comfort and is an excellent way of travelling to Paris quickly and comfortably.

No defectsThe ride was very nice, there were power sockets, the seats were clean and comfortable, the atmosphere was very pleasant and the volume was good. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There were clean toilets and the train left on time and arrived on time. The food was very tasty and there was a very good view of the countryside from the window. I can only recommend the trip, it was very worthwhile.
Advantages
Fast driveVery good priceDisadvantages
NothingThe journey on the ICE from Mannheim to Paris only takes about three and a half hours. As I had booked the journey a few weeks in advance, the price was also relatively cheap. The trains are clean, and sometimes you can also catch French TGVs, which are a bit more modern and cleaner. It's particularly interesting in France when the train is travelling at over 300 km/h.
Advantages

Ticket scanning not possible in the appRestaurant expensiveToilets not very hygienicThe trip is organised and, as it is an international journey, everyone is obliged to have a seat. I find that very pleasant. Once the train is in France and has travelled for a while, it speeds up considerably. It was the fastest train I've travelled on so far.
