Accommodation

For the workshop we arranged cheap accomodation in university's own dorm. We will need a pre-registration for this accomodation, but it is not limited in time and you can stay either the whole period or shorter one, and it can be paid in cash upon arrival. There are also many hotels at various levels starting even at some 25 EUR per night. We will not organize hotel accomodation in any way, but if you need to help with reservation, please let us know.

Internet connection at the dorms is available and for free. Ethernet cable is not provided, please bring your own, if you want to be connected at the dorms. (Cable is provided at the workshop rooms only at the university.)

Laundry

Laundry is available at Dorm Machova B1-14 (address: Máchova 14, see the map). Washing machine costs 20,- Kč for one hour, 30,- Kč for two hours or 40,- Kč for three hours. At the desk, you have to give your name and it must be in a database of university guests (if you stay at Borska or another dorm, you are in this database). If your name is not listed, just provide a different name of another participant of our workshop.

Dorms

A = Room is available at this date; N = Room is NOT available at this date

If someone wants to stay in Pilsen after the workshop accomodation can be still arranged on dorms. We will solve these cases indivudually.

Dorm Borska A1 - Recommended

We will book primarly this dorm so that you can stay at the same place.

The Borska dorm is approximately 10 minutes away from University building by foot. It is the only dorm available the whole time. The drawback is that the path to the venue leads through a field which is accesible without limitation but you better not wear your dancig shoes. The tram is a bit further away (10 minutes of walking). There is a good conection by trolley-bus to university. The station is just a minute away from the dorm. The trolley-bus can take you also to city center.

There are simple rooms with two separate beds each. Bathrooms are shared in a cell. One cell contains two rooms. On every floor one shared kitchen is available. There is a microwave, a hot plate, a kettle, a fridge, but no dishes.

We have reserved a number of rooms in the university dorms Klatovska, Borska and Machova. Unfortunately not all the dorms will be available for the whole duration of the workshop. Please read below for detailed information. Here we will give you basic information about individual dorms. According to your preferences and the time you'll be spending in Pilsen choose a dorm of your liking. The reservations are NOT obligatory, minor changes can be arranged at arrival.

Dorm Klatovska K1

The dorm has an excellent location for the workshop as it is just 10 minutes walk or one bus stop from the venue. At the same time it is located next to a tram terminal, by a tram you are in 10 minutes in the city centre.

The dorm is located in a newly renovated building. There are simple rooms with two separate beds each. Bathrooms and kitchen are shared in the corridor. Price for the room is 420 CZK (approx. 17 EUR) per night in case of double occupancy, 350 CZK (approx. 14 EUR) in case of single occupancy.

Dorm Machova B1-14

Just a minute walk away from the Klatovska dorm is the Machova dorm. Therefor the location is very similar and all that applies to Klatovska dorm can be applied here.

There are simple rooms with two separate beds each. Bathrooms and kitchen are shared in the corridor. This dorm is located in the oldest building from the three dorms.

Prices of the dorms

The prices are set as follows:
3500 CZK (145 EUR) per person for a whole month for a two bed room that is fully occupied.
4500 CZK (186.2 EUR) per person for a whole month for a two bed room that is not fully occupied.
If you do not intend to stay the whole month the prices will be higher - 270 CZK (11.2 EUR) per night or 250 CZK (10.4 EUR) with a valid ISIC.
There is also a refundable deposit which is 1500 CZK (62 EUR).

Hotels

There are numerous hotels of various levels in Plzen. We have not negotiated any special prices in hotels, as from our own experience at conferences usually negotiated prices of organizers are higher than those you can get from internet portals like Hotel.de or Booking.com. So we recommend to use the service of your favourite internet booking portal. It is good idea to consult a map to have an idea about geographic placement of the hotel in relation to the venue or city centre.

From the bigger hotels close to the venue we can select 4* hotels Parkhotel Plzen and Golden Fish Hotel Appartments that are 500m from the tram terminal in the other way than the venue or 2 bus stops from the venue. These are comfortable hotels probably suitable for shorter stays. There is also brand new IBIS, but it is in uncomfortable location in the industrial zone. It is not far from the venue but in the direction out to the industrial zone.
