yes indeed.

the security requires to close the building at 24:00 (idem for Saturday and
Sunday), and it opens at 7:00 (or 7:30) in the morning, but I doubt Sage
developers will wake up so early :-)

other hotels are mentioned on the Tourism Office page http://www.ot-nancy.fr/.
Hôtel des Vosges is where our visitors usually go; it is about 5min walking
distance from the center, reasonably cheap, and not far from the tramway.
For those who prefer to pay a little more, but be in the old center,
I recommend Hôtel de Guise, which has a nice local "touch".

Best regards,
Paul

Hi,

Cc: Paul for comment on local information.

This (http://www.hotel-eclipse.fr) looks inexpensive but (unless
I'm mistaken), not accessible to LORIA or the center except by car.
The center is reasonably accessible by tram; those working late
at LORIA (if this is compatible with building security -- Paul???)
will just have to pay attention to the tram schedule.

I've booked a room in the Hotel Americain:

http://www.americain-hotel.com/

which is walking distance to the train station.

Another inexpensive option is Hotel Akena:

http://www.hotel-akenanancy.com/

also close to the train station (on the other side).

I would suggest some local input before booking hotels
independently.
If the hostel next to LORIA is full, then a group booking in the
center
would be the next best solution,  would have the advantage of being
close to restaurants, and we could regroup at a ciber cafe, or hotel
lounge with WiFi.

Hi there,

Bad news for the accomodation in Nancy:

I called the Youth Hostel, and they do not have enough room for the
period of the SD10: a jazz festival and several other events are
happening in the same period, and the Hostel already has several groups
registered and confirmed.

There is about 6 beds available the 9 and 10 but nothing in the week-end
and the begining of the next week.

This is very unfortunate since this place looked good, close to campus
and cheap!

I will look for other places, ask for availabilities and let you know
about the situation. Don't worry, I will not book anything before we all
agree on the place (especially since it might be more expensive).

Cheers,

Clément
