My parents, who are both in their 70%26#39;s are planning on travelling to Paris in April. However, considering their age they would rather not engage in the Metro service from the Airport and would rather have transfers both from and to the airport.
I have looked at a number of sites but no hotels appear to offer transfers to and from the airport. Could anyone suggest a hotel which might provide this service?
Many thanks in advance.

The majority of transfers provided by hotels will tend to be over-priced...compared to the services provided. The simplest and most straightforward airport transfer for them will be to simply exit through the French Customs portal immediately after collecting their luggage), walk across the main concourse of their arrival terminal (CDG or ORLY), exit the building and walk the few meters to the regular taxi rank found outside and take a TAXI PARISIEN directly to their hotel. If they are at all concerned about language, the simple expedient of printing out the Location/Acess page of their hotel%26#39;s web site or carrying the EXACT name and address of their hotel in Paris, to hand to the taxi driver will resolve this. To compare this to a hotel transfer, the average TAXI PARISIEN fare from CDG to most addresses within Paris will rune 45-55€...from ORLY, 30-40€...plus an official surcharge of 1€ per bag (after the 1st) added to the amount of the metered fare.

Private transfer could be prebooked with shuttle or limo companies. Someone will wait for them and they won%26#39;t have to queue for taxi
Lists of reliable companies are available on www.paris-airport-shuttle.fr or www.parisairportlimousines.com
