Maaaaarten!!! Miss you! Hope to meet your beautiful bride!

If you haven't been to Prague before, everything is pretty close, cab ride wise, and if you are accustomed to paying with USD or EUR, your money goes a bit further since the currency is still CZ Crowns, so no matter where you stay, things are still relatively close compared to say, Vegas, and cab rides are cheaper than AMS.

TES put me in a nice bed and breakfast inn, not on the overflow list, and way off the beaten path (cab drivers were getting lost:1orglaugh) but it was still under $10 USD to get up to the show hotel.

Since the evening events are held offsite, sometimes it was cheaper for me to get back to my hotel than it was for the folks up at the show hotel. So don't feel like you're getting anything less by being in an overflow hotel. I was very happy with my lodgings, it was more intimate, and quaint compared to the big show hotel, so I got the best of both worlds, fun and excitement at the show, peace and quiet in my inn.

This show is worth coming to, no matter where you stay! :2 cents:

i stayed there last year and just booked it again. the rooms are absolutely fine for the price, better than many other hotels where i paid 2 or 3 times more. and the walk to the show hotel is only a little inconvenient in the morning when you're crawling up the hill :1orglaugh

forgot about Eurowebtainment in Vienna

I wanted to go to that show,i even had chance to get free ticket,but irony is even Vienna is closer to me then Prague(and that making bus ticket cheaper)it still cost more then Prague show due more expensive food,metro tickets,hotel and everything else.

if you have a free ticket, the EWT shows are not that expensive: more free drinks during day and parties, free food at shows and Vienna is far less expensive than I would have thought, a lot cheaper than Barcelona

for ?7-9 you get a main dish that will last you a day :)

of course Prague is still cheaper, but I'm sure Vienna is cheaper than Amsterdam and Barcelona

that said already orderred the ?20 burger at Kobe in Prague, which is worth the money :winkwink:

Just Amsterdam.

Hi LatinaCrazy,

Trust me - the hotel is sold out. We had the same issue last year. For whatever (contractual) reason the Hotel Praha cannot take their room contingent out of pages such as booking.com, etc. But if you actually book, what will happen is, that you arrive the day of the show at the hotel, and they will tell you that unfortunately they did an overbooking, and they will offer you to put you into a different 5 star hotel - on the very other side of Prague. Trust me, I know what I am speaking about, it happened various times last year. Please do yourself a favour and do not book a room at the Praha via any reseller (bookings.com, etc.) - unless you want to end up on the other side of Prague :)

Kindest regards,
Andreas

I thought the one or the other of you might want to take advantage of this really low price...

Have a nice day!
Andreas

My sched is pretty tight around that time but I'll try my best to attend the Prague one

Prague and Amsterdam for sure this year.

Past year did only Prague and was nice but this year I'll go for sure to Amsterdam for a change, maybe Prague too but for what i was told, you end meeting the same people in all 3 shows.

Thanks for the heads up, I am booked at Diplomat, there is no way I was going to book a room for 1,034 dollars a night...

Looking like Amsterdam and Prague for me.

Don't know yet, but then again. I just like showing up ;)

I will be attending the Prague show, and of course Qwebec Expo here in Montreal. Looking forward to Prague!

bump for Fall shows!

Prague is home

http://oktoberfestgathering.com/

There ya go

I'm going to attend Amsterdam show only, it's been more productiove EU show for me ever

The Diplomat is very nice as well. We stayed there last year.

Last year NETbilling did London, Praque and Amsterdam. We did the Oktoberfest gathering in the past as well. All great events.

Here is my recommendation...

The O-gathering is much more of just a party but a great thing to experience. The other shows are all very well attended but there is much of a cross over crowd. I would suggest 2 if you want good coverage but if you can attend all, so be it!

I stayed there last year too. Just don't understand why they continue booking in the same small hotels that sell out in 48 hours. This has happened for the last two EU Summits at least. Time to start getting larger hotels maybe. Its not the money on cabs but the many inconveniences it causes. Anyway, not a big deal, just a suggestion for the next EU Summit.

Jenni ! No Montreal this year ? *sob*

Hi Billy,

I have looked at over 40 (forty) five star hotels in Prague, and unfortunately the Praha is the only one where the show floor works for our group. Others were either even smaller (even less people fit into the venue hotel) or a lot larger like the InterConti or the Hilton (so we won't be able to rent them exclusively for our group - which would be a major downgrade for the event as a whole).

Unfortunately how I currently see it is, that a decision against the Praha means, that we will have to move to another city, and currently, by the amazing number of registrations (over 250 already) and sponsors (over 20 already) we already got for our Prague Super Show, it feels to me, that a large part of our clients are not ready to leave Prague and move on (yet).

In any case, trust me, we keep our ears and eyes open, and if we see a workable alternative, we will make sure to give it a shot.

As you know, we have changed hotel for our Barcelona show two times already, always in the search of a way to promote our sponsors even better, and to provide our visitors with a better show experience. And we just did it again: The next European Summit in Barcelona will not take place in the Miramar Hotel again, as sponsors did not like the venue distribution - so we move on and the next European Summit will take place from March 1st until March 4th, 2013 in the Hotel Calipolis (www.hotelcalipolis.com) right at the beach with an improved show floor.

Thanks again for your feedback though. Only if people tell us straigh what they do not like about our shows, and advise us how we can perform better in the future, we will eventually manage to get it right.

Kindest regards,
Andreas

Sean, you know I won't miss that show. Prost :drinkup

Amsterdam, Prague and of course Oktoberfest!
