Taxi at Gare Saint-Lazare

SNCF gives the station address as 13 Rue d’Amsterdam. That identifies the station when making a request, but does not by itself describe your pickup point. Add your train number and read the instructions before choosing an exit.

If leaving a hotel in the area, enter its address instead. A search for a Saint-Lazare taxi can mean the station, a nearby street or a hotel. Select the place where you will actually be waiting, with an identifiable entrance.

SNCF lists the Cour de Rome and Cour du Havre entrances, plus an Amsterdam exit on the platform 27 side. Keep these names in mind when leaving your train: they let you explain where you are more precisely than “outside Saint-Lazare”.

Do not choose a side just because it is the first exit you see. For a booking, the confirmed meeting point takes precedence over a general landmark. If you have already left through a different exit, explain your location before moving. Without a booking, follow station taxi signs; these entrances are not a list of taxi ranks.

These are two separate Paris stations. Enter “Gare de Lyon, Paris” and the time of your onward train. Allow for leaving the first train, walking, the road journey and the next operator’s boarding requirements.

Metro line 14 serves both Saint-Lazare and Gare de Lyon. Consider it when the access and service suit your luggage and timing. A taxi provides the option of a direct car journey, which may be convenient with several suitcases. Check conditions on the day whichever option you choose.

Line 14 also serves Aéroport d’Orly. Compare the metro and taxi using your actual circumstances: passenger numbers, bags, station access and flight terminal. Check the correct ticket and the service for your date if travelling by metro.

For a car to Orly or CDG, give your departure terminal and required airport arrival time. For Montparnasse or Gare du Nord, use the exact station name. Journey times depend on the route and traffic, so build in a margin rather than relying on one fixed driving time.

A district name is not a drop-off address. Copy your hotel’s full name, street address and reception entrance if needed. If you want to leave your luggage before sightseeing, make the accommodation your destination. See our Paris taxi guide for other city journeys.

For Disneyland, choose between the parks, Chessy station and your hotel. Read the Disneyland Paris taxi guide before specifying the destination. An apartment in Val d’Europe and a Disney hotel reception are different drop-off points.

Arrange pickup after allowing time to leave the platform and reach the meeting point. If your train is delayed, send the revised time through the contact or management link provided, including your request reference. Check how the meeting and any waiting will be handled.

Keep your phone available and describe a specific landmark if you cannot find the spot. “Cour du Havre” or “Amsterdam exit” is clearer than “at the exit”. A train number does not by itself confirm automatic tracking or unlimited waiting.

List every passenger, large suitcase, cabin bag and bulky item. Say whether your pushchair folds. Gather the family or group before leaving the station, so nobody heads to a different side.

Explicitly request any child seat, booster or vehicle suitable for a mobility need. Provide useful details, including the child’s age and equipment dimensions, then wait for confirmation. Station assistance and the car pickup need separate coordination.

Compare the same addresses, time and requirements for a trip to Gare de Lyon, Orly or a hotel. Ask about the applicable fare, reservation and waiting conditions after a delayed train. A price for a different route is not a fare for yours.

Regulated airport fixed fares apply to defined journeys and conditions; they are not a universal fare from Saint-Lazare. Check official rules and the terms provided for your trip, distinguishing an estimate from a confirmed amount.

Saint-Lazare is served by metro lines 3, 12, 13 and 14. Compare the entire journey: the walk to the transport, any changes and the final leg to your address. An option that suits one person with a small bag may be less suitable for a family with luggage.

Prepare a separate return request with the actual departure address and the train you need to catch. Specify the entrance where you will wait. Work backwards from the rail operator’s required arrival time, allowing for the road and the walk inside the station.

Check the return confirmation even if your outward journey is complete. If your hotel or plans change, send the update using the available management options. Do not automatically reuse the meeting point from your arrival at the station.
