In France, a few night train lines are operated by the state-owned SNCF.

What types of carriages are available on SNCF night trains?

SNCF night trains are equipped with standard seating carriages and couchette carriages offered in two comfort classes.

How are the couchette carriages arranged?

In the couchette carriages, you travel in 4-person compartments (first class) or 6-person compartments (second class). The berths are simply designed in both classes and are about 1.9 meters long.

Are there private compartments?

Yes, it's possible to reserve an entire couchette compartment as a private compartment. This can also be done for a group.

What's the difference between first and second class in couchette carriages?

First class berths are slightly wider than in second class and there are only four berths per compartment. Advantage of first class: In Paris and Toulouse, there are showers at the stations for first class passengers. In second class, six travelers share each compartment. For cyclists, it's possible to bring a bicycle in second class for an additional fee of 10 euros.

What about food and amenities?

The night trains don't have a dining car, so it's advisable to bring your own food or eat before departure. You can also pre-order salads, sandwiches, and drinks. First class passengers receive a small breakfast. All travelers get a night kit with refreshing towelette, dental hygiene product, sleep mask, earplugs, and a bottle of mineral water.
