Hmm... So, what's the deal with the CIS region, colleagues?

Isn't it obvious that preparations are proceeding according to plan!

I'll check out a couple of bases and talk to the management next week.

So, what's the verdict?
:smile30:
Will there be any action? I'm really looking forward to it!))

He's going to watch it today, I think we'll have information either tonight or tomorrow.

I would like to introduce the "Sambia" Hotel, which is located in the resort town of Zelenogradsk, in the Kaliningrad region. The hotel is located near the sea, and some rooms even have a view of it.

The website has many photos; I will post the main ones.

THE PRICES ARE PRELIMINARY. The hotel manager said that it is necessary to know the exact number of people and dates. We can discuss the prices more precisely if we decide.

A double room costs 2500 rubles per night = 1250 rubles per person, including breakfast.



The room includes: a wardrobe, a double bed or two single beds, a shower cabin, a TV, a refrigerator, a telephone, a hairdryer, toiletries, Wi-Fi, and some rooms have a French balcony. It is possible to add 2 extra beds. There are rooms with double beds.

There are also single rooms, but they are more expensive. 2100 rubles per night.

The suites seem to only have double beds (this needs to be clarified if anyone is interested).

Lunches and dinners need to be arranged in advance: 450 rubles for lunch, 400 rubles for dinner.

The conference hall is in a separate building, and no one will interfere. 15000 rubles from 9 am to 6 pm, with an additional charge for subsequent hours. (This can be discussed, I think).

It can be divided into 2 parts to separate the "Heroes" players and the "gamblers" :D

There is also a gym, a water park, and a billiard room.

The main problem is the dates. From the 29th to the 1st, the rooms are already booked, so they can only accommodate us starting from the 2nd. Therefore, either from May 2nd to 9th or from May 5th to 12th (6th to 13th).

I would like to hear feedback on this issue and relatively quickly, for those who care about the CIS event this year. A 50% prepayment is required by the end of March.

P.S. On Thursday, I want to look at a couple more places on the Curonian Spit, but they will either be small or of much lower quality. But I have reviewed a lot of information, and for our event, this is almost the first place where it is really possible to create something good.

I like the hotel, the dates are not important. Go to the CIS 2018 in Kaliningrad!

Evgen, you're awesome!

1. Conference hall with two sections - 24/7 access, sound system - what is the price for 24/7 and UNRESTRICTED access?
2. Menu with these prices (450 rubles for lunch - quite a lot). Vegetarian options?
3. What about the internet?
4. The administration should be prepared for extreme alcohol-fueled chaos.
5. I can't check the website in detail right now - how many rooms do they have with two single beds?

2. Menu based on this price list (450 rubles for lunch - quite a lot). Vegetarian options?
3. What about the internet?
4. The administration should be prepared for extreme alcohol-fueled revelry.
5. I can't study the website in detail right now - how many rooms do they have with two single beds?

1. All equipment (the website describes what's included) is included in the rental price, access is 24/7, I think we can arrange it.
2. There are vegetarian options, as lunches are separate and everyone can order what they want, but in advance, so they can stock up on the products.
3. There is internet, they said it's good, I will check it personally on Thursday. They can provide a system administrator if needed.
There will be enough rooms with two single beds, as there are 87 rooms in total. (3 buildings, one will be behind us, possibly even the whole building). I can say for sure, again, on Thursday, and I'll also find out about the alcohol-fueled revelry

15000 rubles a day for the conference hall (and as I understand it, that's not even the full cost?)
I understand why outsiders didn't write anything about these fucking prices, but Merlin, where are you looking? Open your eyes and calculate the event's yield... with food prices and the conference hall bringing the total sum to 20+k a day.

In Volgograd, the cost of a conference hall with Wi-Fi was 17500 per day.
It's clear that the final price might end up higher, but the difference isn't that great.
And sleeping arrangements are cheaper in Kaliningrad again; 1250 rubles for luxurious rooms is ultimately about 300 rubles cheaper than in Volgograd. But I'm not an expert in these kinds of breakdowns and might have missed or misunderstood something. Still, it seems the prices aren't that scary

The total price for accommodation is 9750, which is not higher than Volgograd. As for the conference hall, there is room to negotiate (it was 17500 in Volgograd). And these are preliminary prices; I even highlighted this for those who are particularly blind.
Lunch and dinner can be sought independently; there is a restaurant at the venue and plenty of cafes nearby.

If there aren't many people, I will find a small base for 20-30 people much more easily and cheaply, and I'll simply be glad for whoever wants to come. Or even own Aive's dacha, which is always waiting for us.

Well, I think that's where we should start. I'm sure that the price for using the conference room around the clock, that is, + another 15 hours on top of the initially stated time, will be exorbitant. Also, I don't know the details of who you talked to, but I think very few people will agree to pay half the price upfront, so you need to look for alternative funding sources.

This is just a proposal that is currently being developed. There are no others at the moment. If you suggest something better (which I highly doubt) or someone else suggests a more interesting option (I'm still hoping for Moscow), I will gladly postpone this project to next year or even 20 years from now. I'm still not sure if the dates will suit everyone, so it would be good to attach a poll in a new thread.

Ideally, it would be best to schedule it within the range of the 29th to the 6th, as this includes only two working days and six weekend days, totaling eight days. We could also consider the 2nd to the 6th, but would that be enough time?
