Default Paris airport

There may not be any luggage checkrooms or lockers anymore, under the
present security conditions. You could check with the Paris airport
website, www.adep.fr. CDG is in Roissy. There are a number of reasonably
priced hotel chains near the airport. I've had very good experiences with
the Climat brand, but I don't think they have one near CDG. However, their
parent company, Groupe Envergure does, so try
http://www.envergure.fr/climatdefrancefr.html if you're interested.

After my tour in UK, our plan is to take the eurostar to Paris
arriving at Gare du Nord station around 4pm. Hope to save some money
by taking the metro to the airport, store luggage there, go back to
the city to do some sightseeing, return to the airport around 10pm,
spend the night at the airport until the next morning, go for
breakfast, then early check-in for the 12 hour international flight
home at 11am. Has never spent a whole night at an airport. Is it going
to be tough?

Prior to UK tour, we had already stayed in Paris for 3N so our
thinking is: why check into a Paris hotel for one night just for a
soft bed to sleep on but having to pay another US$80.

Is there any storage facility at the CDG airport and what is the rate
like? Are there comfortable seats at the airport for people to take
catnaps?
