Hi folks,
Speaking of cheap accommodations, is there any news of a rebate for the
conference and/or the conference hotel for those of us committers that
don't have a session there ?
cheers,
Tom

The cheapest hotel within walking distance of the con is probably
Bewleys hotel Ballsbridge or the Schoolhouse Hotel (nice place), which
are both 99 euro a night.
For cheaper non-Hotel options, there are quite a few good B & Bs in the
immediate area;

Pembroke Hall Guesthouse is pretty close by, and comes in at 68 Euro per
night.
Cheaper can be gotten of course, but mainly in the City Centre which is
about a 20 minute walk away. One of the closest real budget hostels is
Avalon House; http://www.avalon-house.ie/, and it's about a 15/20 minute
walk away.
If you're searching online, try to keep to the "Dublin 2" and "Dublin 4"
postcodes, and you can't be too far away. Some of Dublin 6 is very close
by too.
If you want to make sure that any particular place is close by, or on an
easy bus/rail route, feel free to mail myself, or noirin@apache.org, and
one of us can help you out.
