I expect each #to book his own accomodation and (apart from lunches) pay his own #food in the university cafetaria etc. Also, both mechiel and I have #some space for ``mattrass on the floor'' guests; if you are #interested contact us (or me, axel) in time. # #Getting to the venue, and maps: # # * dutch train information [http://www.ns.nl]; button ``English'' at # the top of the page. # * ''door to door'' travel information [http://www.ovr.nl] (includes # bus information, but only in dutch) # #There is a railway station ``Enschede Drienerlo'' near the campus #(ca. 20 min walk, or fewer by bus [line 1 | #http://tinyurl.com/4cepn]). Only ``slow'' trains stop there, so if #you travel by ``intercity'' or ``fast train'' from elsewhere in the #netherlands you have to change, e.g. in Hengelo. If you have to #change in Hengelo anyway, it is probably faster to take a bus (see #below). # #There are buses from Hengelo central station to the campus # # * [line 15 | http://tinyurl.com/5mp3n] to Universiteit Twente (not # in the weekend) The bus stop is closest to our building is # indicated on the campus map by the ``H'' at the ``hallenweg'' near # building number 5. # * [line 3 | http://tinyurl.com/6pazj] to ''Glanerbrug''. (note: the # url gives the timetable for sunday (zondag), click the buttons for # weekdays (Maandag tot en met Vrijdag), or saterday (zaterdag) There # is a bus stop near the campus, on the viaduct where the # ``Hengelosestraat'' (the road between Enschede and Hengelo) crosses # (goes over) the road that leads to the entrance of the university. # #There are buses from Enschede central station to the campus # # * [line 1 | http://tinyurl.com/6g6lt] to ''Universiteit, # Langenkampweg''. Has its final destination on the campus, makes a # nice detour through living quarters of enschede. The bus stop # closest to our building is indicated on the campus map by the ``H'' # at the ``hallenweg'' near building number 5. Warning: line 15 that # stops here as well will bring you to Hengelo. # * lines [3 | http://tinyurl.com/4loaj] (all day), 17 early # mornings), 18 (around lunchtime), go straight from Enschede to # nearby city Hengelo. There is a bus stop near the campus, on the # viaduct where the ``Hengelosestraat'' (the road between Enschede # and Hengelo) crosses (goes over) the road that leads to the # entrance of the university. # #[Maporama | http://www.maporama.com] can show a map of the city, #using e.g. postal codes. In the netherlands postal codes consist of #4 digits followed by 2 letters. For the campus, you can use: #postcode: 7522 NB , city: Enschede , which will show you the campus, #but not exactly the building we meet in, for that see the info at #the top of this page. For postal codes of hotels, follow the links #in the accomodation section below (they will be in the contact info #of the hotel). # #Wifi access: # #Our university seems to have "Europe's largest Wi-Fi hotspot" #(according to some web page here). To arrange (guest) access it will #be useful to have your mac-addresses in advance. # #[practical information about the campus | #http://www.utwente.nl/en/practical_information/] includes: # * [information about traveling in the netherlands | # http://www.utwente.nl/en/practical_information/getting_there/transport/] # * [how to get to the university | # http://www.utwente.nl/en/practical_information/getting_there/] # * [university campus map | http://www.utwente.nl/en/services/route/] # * [information about accomodation | # http://www.utwente.nl/en/practical_information/accommodation/hotels.doc/] # #The [web pages of the QEST conference | #http://www.qest.org/qest2004/] that was held here last summer #contain more information that may be interesting and/or still valid #(like information about the ``venue'' and about ``transportation''). # #A bit more about accomodation: # #In addition to the [university information about accomodation | #http://www.utwente.nl/en/practical_information/accommodation/hotels.doc/] there is [accomodation info from the QEST conference | http://www.qest.org/qest2004/accomodation] that still kind of applies. In addition to that information I have tried to find information about the less-expensive hotels here. # #On-campus there is ``logica''. Most rooms have no own toilet or #shower (shared on coridor). Room price approx. EUR 42 (incl #breakfast). Contact info under QEST link; when booking there, #mention ``twente9con''. The also on-campus ``drierburgt'' is more #expensive, see their website (eg via QEST accomodation page). # #Off-campus there is, among others, the parkhotel (contact info under #QEST link). The parkhotel has rooms with (prices include breakfast) # * neither shower nor toilet in the room, but shared on the coridor # (single EUR 35, double EUR 55) # * shower in the room, but toilet shared on the coridor (single EUR # 40, double EUR 65) # * both shower and toilet in the room (single EUR 50, double EUR 75) # #There is a bus stop for lines 3, 17, 18 (see above) near the #parkhotel. # #This page is in progress, let me know your feedback at #Axel.Belinfante@cs.utwente.nl #
