Trip to Praha (Prague)
I would like to goto Praha after/before conference; anyone want to head over there? - runyaga
I might be game for Praha after conference. I arrive Wien Sept 19 and depart Wien early Sept 26, unless something changes that pretty quickly (like, open jaw return from Praha) before i purchase the ticket. - cbc
I'll be going to Prague, too -- we're staying in a pension in Prague for about 4 or 5 days after Vienna, if anyone wants to meet up there and explore the city. - joelburton
Me, Fabiano (xiru) and my wife are coming to Praha on the 23/24 and
then to Dresden and Berlin on 25/26/27 - dreamcatcher

Consensus on accommodations?
Any thoughts on what accommodations are close/closest to the Volksgarten? Any favorites? Where are you staying? -cbc
I just booked a few nights here Pension Quisisana - 36 Euro/night, for a single w/ a shower (no wc) in the room. - jonah
Youth Hostels
Anyone from Vienna know if these hostels are anywhere near the Volksgarten? Price per person for a room with 2 beds is 15.5 Euro/night incl. breakfast.
Broken link Arpi Hotel
The link on www.plone.org to the arpi hotel
doesn't work. It's in the middle of town it's not that expensive and it looks fine. This link is ok.
Wien Interactive Map
Having trouble finding the Volksgarten? Or whether that hostel or hotel may be close to Burgring 1? Try the Wien municipal interactive GIS map. It's slow. It times out a lot. The interface is kind of clumsy. But it will eventually get you there. -cbc

Wien Interactive Hotel Map
About a billion times better than the municipal map, the inthotels.com interface to Map24 is fast, sleek, and shows all the hotels closest to the Volksgarten. Requires Java. -cbc
