Maison et Objet Paris takes place from 10 to 14 September 2026 at the Parc des Expositions in Villepinte. For five days, interior decorators, architects, designers and trade buyers from the home decor and design industry gather for this major trade show. Finding a practical and affordable place to stay for the whole event becomes a real question, especially as hotels near Villepinte tend to raise their rates sharply during trade show weeks.
Our apartments in Épinay-sur-Seine and Villetaneuse offer a comfortable alternative: a proper, fully equipped home, a short transport ride from the exhibition centre, at a controlled budget for the entire week.
Why stay north of Paris for Maison et Objet 2026?
The northern suburbs of Paris, and in particular the Épinay-sur-Seine and Villetaneuse area, sit directly in line with the major exhibition hubs north of the city. It is a practical base for reaching Villepinte while enjoying a quieter setting and accommodation prices well below those charged right next to the exhibition centre.
A controlled accommodation budget over five days
Over five nights, the price gap between a hotel near the show and an apartment north of Paris can add up to substantial savings. This is even more relevant for teams travelling together to cover the show, since renting a whole apartment is often far more cost-effective than booking several separate hotel rooms.
A place to work between show sessions
An apartment gives you a proper living room to prepare meetings, spread out catalogues, or take calls without being confined to a single hotel room. That is a real benefit for buyers and decorators who need to organise their show schedule and review the day's contacts each evening.
How to reach the Parc des Expositions in Villepinte from our apartments
The Parc des Expositions in Villepinte is served by RER line B, at the Parc des Expositions stop. From Épinay-sur-Seine and Villetaneuse, several options connect you to the show:
- RER C or Transilien H to Saint-Denis or Gare du Nord, then a connection to RER B towards CDG Airport / Villepinte, alighting at Parc des Expositions
- Total journey time is roughly 40 to 50 minutes depending on connections
- Show shuttle buses are usually available from certain RER B stations on open days
- Off-peak travel makes it easy to avoid rush-hour crowds
This daily commute remains perfectly manageable across five days of the show, and returning each evening to a proper home rather than a cramped congress hotel makes it easier to recover before the next day of meetings.
Our apartments suited to trade show professionals
For a business trip around Maison et Objet, several of our properties are particularly well suited depending on the size of your team.
For a small team or a two-person trip
The Blumenthal apartment sleeps up to 5 guests across 2 bedrooms. It works well for a pair of buyers or a small team of decorators covering the show together.
For a full team with parking
Both the Grand Appartement (8 guests, 3 bedrooms) and the Dumas 2 apartment (8 guests, 3 bedrooms) come with parking, a real advantage if your team is travelling by car with presentation materials or samples to bring to the show.
What does a five-day stay actually cost?
Beyond the nightly rate, the real advantage of a fully equipped apartment shows up at mealtimes. A full kitchen means you can prepare breakfast and dinner on site, which adds up to meaningful savings over five days compared with eating out or relying on show catering every meal. For a team of several people, these savings on food stack directly on top of what you already save on accommodation.
Why choose an apartment over a hotel for this show?
Hotels close to the Parc des Expositions in Villepinte tend to raise their rates noticeably during trade show weeks, driven by strong simultaneous demand from thousands of visitors and exhibitors. An apartment north of Paris lets you avoid that pricing pressure while keeping reasonable access to the venue.
Another advantage is independence: unlike a hotel room, an apartment lets you manage your own schedule, host colleagues to prepare the next day, or store presentation materials in a space larger than a single room. For a team staying several days, that flexibility makes a real difference to the comfort of the trip.
A home set up for a work trip
Wifi to stay connected with your team and clients, a washing machine for multi-day stays, and a living space separate from the bedrooms: these simple things matter over five days of trade show, when every evening counts for resting before another day of meetings.
Making the most of your stay beyond the show
A multi-day business trip to the Paris region is also a chance to explore the area. From Épinay-sur-Seine and Villetaneuse, central Paris is around twenty minutes away by RER C or Transilien H, whether for dinner after a show day or to extend your stay with a day of sightseeing. The Basilica of Saint-Denis, close by, is also an easy cultural stop to fit in between two show days.
A quieter base away from the show crowds
Trade show weeks bring a noticeable spike in activity around Villepinte, from packed shuttle buses to fully booked restaurants near the venue. Basing yourself in Épinay-sur-Seine or Villetaneuse means stepping away from that pressure at the end of each day, into a residential setting where you can actually unwind before the next round of appointments. For a five-day show, that difference in pace between the venue and your evening base can matter as much as the commute itself.
