Paris, Disneyland Paris, Eurostar, Formule 1 etc!

Hi,

I'm planning a trip to Paris for 5 days (4 nights). This is going to have to be on an extrememly tight budget unfortunately! So, I thought that travelling via Eurostar and staying at a Formule 1 hotel would be a good idea. I've been on the Formule 1 website but it's a bit rubbish. Since we plan to spend a couple of days visiting Disneyland Paris I'd ideally like a Formule 1 hotel (or similar?) within easy walking distance of a train (or RER?) station with good links to both Disneyland Paris and central Paris. Does any nice Moneysavingexpert member have any advice or ideas?
Apart from this I've read that the Holiday Inn that is close to Disneyland Paris sometimes does offers some deals - for example 2 nights for the price of 1. I've signed up to their website (I think!?) but haven't heard anything back. Does anyone know if there are any offers on at the moment or coming soon?
Finally, Eurostar...sometimes there are offers on this too. I've exhaustively trawled the net for anything but to no avail. The BBC What to Wear Magazine offer seems to be exhausted and the Daily Telegraph offer has closed. KitKash have sold all their offers too so that's a no-goer as well! Is there anything else that I could/should be looking at?

It's all a bit of a nightmare really!

Thanks very much in advance of your expertise. :o)

    Holiday inn are doing 21 day advance prices from £45, some on the website are 14 day advance fares at the same price and that's for a room with 2 double beds. If you've signed uop as a priority card member try logging in the site and look for the disneyland offers https://secure.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/hi/925/en/home?secure=true&DPSLogout=true It all depends on when you're thinmking of going.

    Several threads, I put some useful info in here

    Takes about 40 minutes from central Paris to DLP on the RER, easy to do and the trains run early until late.

    If you travel on the RER whilst you're there it maybe more economical to get a Carte Orange.
