name="TransportationDetails"><strong>Transportation Details</strong></a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p><a href="http://www.nice.aeroport.fr">Nice International Airport</a> is
|
|
the closest international airport to the meeting site. The Royal Hotel Casino
|
|
is located about 20 miles from the airport. The travel time between the
|
|
airport and the hotel (meeting site) will vary between 30 minutes to one hour
|
|
depending on traffic conditions. Taxi fares will range between 45-60
|
|
Euros.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Please Note: All events will take place at the hotel. There is a small
|
|
harbor village nearby and Cannes croisette is a 5 min cab ride.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4>By car:</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you are renting a car at the airport, please take the highway
|
|
<strong>A8</strong> to the West, in the direction of Cannes and Aix en
|
|
Provence. This is a toll road.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Pass both the Cannes and Cannes La Bocca exits, to Exit 40, Mandelieu La
|
|
Napoule. As you exit, you will take an obligatory right turn after ~100M, and
|
|
then, shortly thereafter, turn right again at the traffic signal. Continue on
|
|
that road until it ends at a T intersection. Turn Left. Now proceed to the
|
|
end of that road at a golf course, just after a small bridge over the river
|
|
La Siagne. Turn Right. Proceed with the golf course on your left. In ~100M,
|
|
when you see a road on your right and a road on the left going up, take the
|
|
road going up on the left for about 10 meters to a T. You will see the water
|
|
front here. Turn Right. The hotel is on your left: proceed about 50M, until
|
|
you can turn left into the entrance of the hotel.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4>By <a href="http://www.ter-sncf.com/paca/default.htm">train</a>:</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you are using the railways note that there is a train station
|
|
"Mandelieu La Napoule" but that not all trains stop there. The nearest train
|
|
station where all trains stop is "Cannes".</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>If you take an omnibus (TER (Transport Express Régional), they do stop
|
|
at every station, including "Mandelieu La Napoule"), you have to walk (10
|
|
minutes) in the direction of Mandelieu castle (should be right in front
|
|
of station, or quite near) and then straight ahead down the hill, pass
|
|
the harbour and onto the Royal Hotel Casino which on the seaside.</li>
|
|
<li>If you take a rapid train (they only stop in main stations), exit at
|
|
"Cannes". From there you will find cabs.
|
|
