PRAGUE SUMMER SCHOOL ON DISCRETE MATHEMATICS 2016
Accommodation
Accommodation is provided for participants who received fellowships. Here are the instructions how to reach your accommodation.
- Getting to Metro line A from the Vaclav Havel Airport Outside the terminal building, you can find a bus stop for bus number 119. At the bus stop, you can also find ticket vending machines which now accept also debit/credit cards. Buy a ticket for 32 CZK (children below 6 do not need tickets). That ticket is valid for 90mins, including changes to metro. On the bus (which goes every 10mins or so) you need to stamp the ticket (no need to stamp it when you change to metro later). The bus takes you to Nadrazi Veleslavin, where you change to Metro line A (towards the city centre). We are unable to reimburse taxis unless you arrive at night (in which case you should contact us ahead).

This is within walking distance from stations Mustek and Muzeum on Metro line A (the green line). There is no reception; to get a key please send a text message to Jan Hladky at least 45 minutes prior to your arrival with estimated arrival time. I will be waiting you there. This is dormitory style accommodation; no breakfasts are provided but each room/flat has a small kitchen. There are small grocery stores all around.
