What shuttle service would you use????

I have been reading reviews on which is the best way to get to our hotel which is located in zone 3 the la Defense area from the airport CDG. I%26#39;ve read that some people like to take a taxie and since we are a group of 6 with baggage I%26#39;m thinking all 6 of us should take a shuttle to get us to our hotel. I%26#39;ve heard about Paris Shuttle and Yellow van Shuttle, Grey Shuttle, and Paris blue airport shuttle. Has any one used any of these and what did you think about their service? Did you prebook in advance and were they reliable? Were they there to meet you and get you where you need to go. We will be arriving about 9:00 am. I would appreciate any imput you could give me on the shuttle services. Thanks

Shuttles charge by the person--about 17€. A taxi will be much cheaper. Just proceed to the taxi line. You may have to wait a bit for a van.

Have the adress written down to show to the driver. You will pay the metered fare, 8€ for extra passengers and 1€ per bag.

You would need two taxis.

We have reserved with Airport Shuttle for 4 people 140 euro round trip.Not shared with others . Going Oct 12 th -will post how it goes.

We%26#39;ve used (and recommended to friends and acquaintances who%26#39;ve also used them) these shared-airport shuttle services--

BLU VANS--

PARIS AIRPORT SHUTTLE--

without any problems or complaints with relaiability or service for several years.

Though we%26#39;ve never used them, the private-airport shuttle service--GREY SHUTTLE--

http://www.greyshuttle.com/

has received good reviews here and on other Paris travel forums for reliability and service.

You don%26#39;t need two taxis--there are vans.

Last time for the two of us the fare to our hotel was 45€. That means that for four people each with two pieces of luggage the fare would have been 52€. And all one has to do is proceed to the taxi line.

Thankyou all for the replies on the shuttle questions.

If there are six(6) in your party...you would need two(2) taxis--mini-vans will only carry five(5) passengers and baggage.
