Facilitating communication between deaf or hearing-impaired people and our reception-desk team
Since June 2017, the Paris Convention and Visitors Bureau has made it possible for people who are deaf or hearing-impaired to come and ask for information at the main office Hôtel de Ville (29 rue de Rivoli, Paris 4th), and communicate with our team thanks to the service ACCEO.
Go to one of the reception-desk staff. They will indicate a desk equipped with a webcam, a microphone and speakers and will be able to converse with you with the help of an operator specialized in French sign language (RSA) or by instant speech transcription.
ACCEO operators are available from Monday to Friday, from 9am to 12.30pm and from 1.30pm to 5.30pm.
