Royal Regency Paris Vincennes

The resort and its setting

Royal Regency Paris Vincennes is a Hilton Vacation Club/Diamond Resorts property at 69-71 Rue Defrance, in the heart of Vincennes, Val-de-Marne. Google reviewers rate it 4.3 out of 5 from 689 reviews, and reviews consistently describe the same thing: no-frills studios and apartment-style suites, each with a kitchenette and a DVD player. This is a property built for self-catering stays rather than a resort with a long list of on-site extras, which suits owners and renters who want a comfortable, functional base rather than a resort-island experience.

Vincennes and getting around

Vincennes is a well-connected commune just east of Paris, known for the Château de Vincennes and the large Bois de Vincennes park on its doorstep. Staying here puts you close to central Paris while avoiding the highest city-centre rates, with a Paris Métro line running into the city from Vincennes itself. The area works well for travellers who want to split their time between sightseeing in Paris and a quieter base to return to in the evening. There are plenty of day-trip options from the region, and the kitchenette-equipped rooms mean owners and renters can save on eating out if they prefer to self-cater some meals.

Selling or renting a week here

If you own a week at Royal Regency Paris Vincennes and are thinking about selling or renting it out, BidMyTimeshare.com is a private, owner-to-owner marketplace: you set your own asking price, list the week yourself, and buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. We charge a one-time listing fee and take 0% commission on the sale or rental.

Before you list, it's worth understanding the brand's own transfer process, since this is a Diamond Resorts/HGV Europe affiliated property. According to Diamond Resorts' March 2022 key information document, transferring points to a new or existing member costs £299 / €343.85, transferring a week to a new owner costs £200 / €230 per certificate, and a family transfer costs £75 / €86.25 per certificate. These fees are paid as part of completing the transfer with the club, separately from anything agreed between you and your buyer on the marketplace.

Transfers here are also subject to a right of first refusal and other club restrictions: according to the 2026 HGV Europe Collection governing documents, points can only pass to family, heirs, or through an HGV-appointed regulated intermediary, or at HGV's discretion. Resale-only points owners are not enrolled as full Members of The Club, so buyers should be clear on what level of membership and benefits they will actually receive before agreeing a price. The brand does not publish a typical transfer timeframe, so build in some flexibility when planning a sale.

On the plus side for buyers, this resort is affiliated with RCI and Interval International, two established exchange networks, which may matter if a buyer is interested in trading their week for stays elsewhere rather than only using it at Vincennes.

Practical notes for buyers and renters

Renters researching Royal Regency Paris Vincennes should know it's a studio/suite-style property with kitchenettes rather than a resort with extensive leisure facilities, which tends to suit couples, small families or groups who want a Paris-adjacent base and don't need an on-site pool or entertainment programme. Buyers considering a resale should ask the current owner or Diamond/HGV directly about the latest annual maintenance fee, since this isn't published in the available facts, and should also confirm current transfer costs before finalising a price, as fees can be updated after the 2022 and 2026 documents referenced here.
