Travel and Accommodation
Hotel Suggestion
As the Guesthouse is closed as will the canteen for dinners, we will once again stay in a hotel in the center of town. In keeping with the spirit of the code camp we encourage everyone to make reservations as soon as they can at the code camp hotel:
- special rate: 114 euro/night with breakfast - 24h (prior to arrival) cancellation policy.
- Deadline: March 11, 2019
- reservation code: SASVIEW
- website:https://www.hoteleuropole.com/
- you can register individually by email to resa at hoteleuropole.com. You will need a credit card (but you can cancel your reservation freely up to 24 h before arriving). Don't forget to use the reservation code SASVIEW when writing.
If you need a really cheap accomodations, the Marie Curie residence is a good option with a rate of 41.50 euro/night, breakfast included. Link: https://www.sejours-affaires.com/residence-hoteliere-aparthotel-grenoble-7.html
If you miss the deadline and cannot get a room at the Europole, other possibilities include:
- Le Grand-Hotel: Very centric (close to place Grenette) and seems to be one of the nicest hotels in town. 120 euro/night. Link: http://www.grand-hotel-grenoble.fr/
- The next three hotels are situated in the same area, close to the World Trade Center, behind the train station and therefore quite close to the Marie Curie residence and not far from the campus.
- Hipark Adagio: 75 euro/night. Studios and apartments only, I think. There is a meeting room and gym, but I think that there is no bar. Link: https://wwwbeta.adagio-city.com/fr/hotel-B2R8-hipark-by-adagio-grenoble/index.shtml?utm_source=google%20Maps&utm_medium=seo%20maps&utm_campaign=seo%20maps
- Novotel: 100 euro/night. Link:https://www.accorhotels.com/gb/hotel-1624-novotel-grenoble-centre/index.shtml
- Also not far from the train station, but on the other side: Ibis Styles Gare: 90 euro/night. Link:https://www.accorhotels.com/gb/hotel-7953-ibis-styles-grenoble-centre-gare/index.shtml

Meals
Lunch
Lunches from Monday to Friday will be taken on the onsite canteen. As both the ILL and the ESRF will be shut down during the code camp period, the canteen will not be open for dinner and on the weekend.
Dinner
If we want to eat together in town in the evenings then many places will need a booking for the number we have. Suggestions will be added here in due time.
- In 2016, I ate at the 'À la Fortune du Pot' which was very good (a local couple running the restaurant), but it might need a reservation beforehand. Editing note: the aforementioned couple have retired. Apparently it has now been taken over by younger relatives? so still open but somewhat different menu. I hear it is still pretty good but definitely not the same.
- La Ferme a Dede —nice option for Raclette for example
- La Table Ronde - very nice traditional place
