Hi all! We are arriving at DLP on Sat, and are staying for 3 nights. Just wondered if the shopping centre at Marne La Valee is any good? Just don't want to waste our valuable park time if there isn't a lot there!
Is it worth going there to pick up things like water to take into the park - I have heard its v v expensive for snacks and drinks in DLP.
Thanks

The shopping centre is quite good. There's a supermarket, loads of shops and restaurants and even a designer outlet village.

That said: in my opinion, it's not worth a visit as part of a 3 day trip. I'd rather spend more time in the parks!

There are shops in the train station that sell snacks cheaper than in the parks.

There are free drinking fountains in both parks for water.

It's a perfectly nice shopping centre and it has some good restaurants, much cheaper than the Village. However I agree, I wouldn't go there on a 3 night stay. Get some bottled water in the station.

I luv the shopping centre, depends what time the park closes. last time it was 7 so we use go over for after the parks as it open till 9. The outlet village closes at 7 so one eve we went over earlier, its small but brilliant got a load of ralph lauren stuff for dd2 last time at next prices i was delighted. If i was there for only 3 days wouldnt go unless park closed at 7. I luv shopping doe so i do kinda need my fix:rotfl:
