FAQ

• What counts as a group booking at Generator Paris?
  Any crew of 10 or more counts as a group. You’ll get special rates, flexible room options and your own contact to make planning easy.
• How do I make a group booking or get a quote?
  Just drop us an email at groups.gepar@staygenerator.com or fill in the group enquiry form – we’ll get back fast with a custom quote and hold rooms while you finalise details.

  Our Duty Manager and Reception team are available 24/7 to help with anything you need during your stay. For your safety, all rooms use a secure key card system — each guest receives a card that must be shown to our Door Security staff when re-entering the building. This ensures smooth access and peace of mind for all group members.
