Just outside Paris, on the banks of the Oise, the Cergy-Pontoise area mixes a lively new town (Cergy) with a historic center (Pontoise). Well connected by the RER A and the J line, it is a handy base for working on the move. For remote work, the offer comes down mostly to one good coworking space and a few well-equipped hotels. Whether you live in Cergy and work remotely or you are just passing through the Val-d'Oise, here is our selection, recommended by the Cergy-Pontoise tourist office.
Cowool, Cergy
On the Oise, boulevard du Port, Cowool is a coworking and coliving space with a big bright atrium, open space, offices and meeting rooms. Its big plus for nomads: day access with a flexible desk, wifi included, no mandatory subscription (prices on the Cowool website). Ideal for a proper working day.
Our favorite in Cergy for a quiet day of work.
Ibis Cergy-Pontoise Le Port
