Depends! If expense no object, then probably Le Bourget (unless you fancy your chances at Roissy or Orly).
For GA, I reckon Toussus takes a lot of beating. Ten minutes by taxi to Versailles, and the suburban train straight to the centre.

Lognes (LFPL) to the east of Paris is also very convenient. Train station within walking distance of airfield with a direct line to the heart of Paris.

Good morning everybody,
As a Paris airfields user i would suggest (depending of your a/c type):
Lognes Emerainville (LFPL) with TWR, customs, near transportation, restaurants and hotel. Airfield located 15km east of Paris.
Toussus-le-noble (LFPN) with TWR, customs, near transportation, restaurants and hotel. Airfield located 10km southwest Paris.
Pontoise (LFPT) with TWR, customs, located about 50 km northwest Paris. A bit difficult to get transportation to Paris.
E-mail me if you need more info (fuel price, landing fees...)
Regards.
Emmanuel.
Happy landings !

I did Booker-Toussus-le-Noble in 2:30 (PA28). Good location. Nice turn onto 26L final with the Eiffel Tower in sight.

Of course, if you're not f/w the heliport at Issy is a damn sight more central than any of the places recently mentioned . . .
