(j3.2006) Meeting 201, preliminaries.

[Lionel, Steve]

Looking at the web sites of the two hotels, I would find the Leeuwenbrug to be preferable just on the basis of the hotel itself - it feels more "comfortable" to me, and the TripAdvisor reviews are very positive.

Dear All,

A question from Steve Lionel prompted me to start looking at the logistics of meeting 201 in Delft.

The following is a pointer to a map of Delft with hotels and the train stations involved:

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=hotels+in+delft&hl=en&ll=52.000524,4.36758&spn=0.026791,0.084028&sll=51.996138,4.369125&sspn=0.026794,0.084028&hq=hotels&hnear=Delft,+South+Holland,+The+Netherlands&t=m&fll=52.006865,4.361229&fspn=0.053574,0.168056&z=14

In 2005, Matthijs van Waveren made a block booking at the hotel marked "I" in the map (Hotel Coen Delft, hotelcoendelft.nl - close to the main train station, which is indicated by this white-on-blue square nearby).

Following the train tracks southward, you'll see another "station pictogram" near the word "Kruithuisweg" - that's Delft Zuid station.

Our meeting facilities at NEN are approximately 300 metres from that station.

In 2005, we walked from Delft's city center to the NEN building (a 35 minute walk), but the location close to the train station means that there is the option of going by train in case of bad weather ...

Do you want me to make a block booking at Hotel Coen, or do you want to use this map to find another hotel of your liking nearby ? (as you can see, there are about half a dozen hotels within 500 meters - I myself stayed at Hotel Leeuwenbrug in 2005).

Please indicate your preferences.

Kind regards,
