| | Hotels with WiFi, preferably free | Apr 9, 2007 |
I would be interested in finding out which hotels have WiFi guaranteed, preferably free and with a wide cover range (i.e. - available in and outside rooms too).
I read in the conference information that the hotel the conference is taking place at has WiFi, but then it said something about buying access codes.
I am particularly concerned about this point as recently I stayed at a hotel in Tenerife with WiFi and coverage was partial and the WiFi vouchers were charged at 5 euros per 10 minutes, in other words a rip-off.
It's worth spending more on a hotel if you get all the business freebies included.
Thank you!

TOPIC STARTER | | There will be unlimited wifi access in Hotel Benczúr | Apr 9, 2007 |
I made a special deal with Hungary's key ISP that operates a hotspot in this hotel. Normally, hotel guests can access the wifi network by purchasing access cards at the reception. Such cards are valid for 1, 5 or 24 hours.
The special deal with the ISP is that they will not require any access codes for their wifi network during the conference, i.e. April 29th and 30th. Actually, as the price is not prohibitive, I will probably include April 28th as well. Conference participants will not have to pay for this access on these days, in other words, wifi access is included in the conference fee.
I told the ISP that there may be up to 100 notebook users, so they will broaden the bandwidth for the duration of the conference.
As for other hotels, I have no information. I know wifi is available in most 4 and 5 star establishments, but it does not come as a standard service at moderately priced hotels.
Free wifi access is also provided by a rapidly growing number of cafés around the town. A notable exemple is Liszt Ferenc tér, a pedestrian zone at about 15 minutes walking distance from Hotel Benczúr, where all cafés and restaurants offer free wifi and it's also accessible from the benches in the park.

| | Trying to attend | Apr 12, 2007 |
I am attempting to book a room for the conference. My attendence will hinge on my success here.
So far, Hotel Benczur tells me they have no rooms left.
I am waiting for a response from Hotel Delibab.
Are there any other recommendations for hotels that are within 10-15 minutes walking (with WiFi if at all possible)?
Is there anyone with a room at Hotel Benczur who would like to cut their expenses in half by having me stay with them in their room?

| | Half a room in Hotel Benczur (conference hotel) available | Apr 22, 2007 |
Hi everyone,
I booked a double room with 2 beds and a bath (77 Euros for the room / night incl. breakfast buffet) in the Hotel Benczur and will now be there alone (female), so I have half a room for a single person willing to share for 4 nights (April 27 - May 1).
Looking forward to seeing you all there and to my first visit to Budapest!

| | Hotel Ibis now available | Apr 25, 2007 |
I have just canceled the room at Ibis on 4/28-4/30, due to the room share offered on this date. If there is anyone still looking for the room, try to contact the Hotel Ibis.

| | I have arrived | Apr 26, 2007 |
I just got to Budapest yesterday. I am currently staying in Hotel Ibis which is about 10-15 minutes walking from the conference venue. I still would much prefer to stay at Hotel Benczur, but I guess those are the breaks.
I have an extra bed in my room so if anyone wants to share expenses let me know.
