Anyone else heading to WInnComm’11 Europe, June 22-24? I’m a presenter,  
and am trying to find reasonably priced accommodations – “The Hotel”  
has a special for this conference of EU 179 - 259 (currently US$ 260 -  
376) per night, before taxes & such but including breakfast & wifi,  
which is a bit rich. Splitting a room with others might be an option to  
bring down the price, as might staying elsewhere. Anyway, I’m trying to  
think out of the box, and wondering if anyone else is going & what  
they’re thinking. Thanks! - MLD

I’ll be there. Yes, the conference hotel is ridiculous.

I have a reservation at:

[http://www.st-nicolas.be/contentENG/home.asp](http://www.st-nicolas.be/contentENG/home.asp)

It is a smaller hotel near the Grand Place. I stayed there during FOSDEM  
and the breakfast and wifi were OK. The room was seriously small, but  
the price is much better. If someone has any better ideas I can cancel  
the reservation.
