About Your Journey

Tallinn

The city of Tallinn has the airport (www.tallinn-airport.ee/) situated almost next to city Centre. You can get more information about Tallinn and its events from Estonian http://www.visitestonia.com and Tallinn tourist information (http://www.tourism.tallinn.ee/)

Conference will be held in Tallinn University of Technology (www.ttu.ee) at Mustamäe, Ehitajate tee 5,  located about 6 km from the Centre (Kesklinn). It should be wise to prefer taxi, one drive from Centre to University costs not more than 80 kroons (5 EUR).

 We use our own money: Estonian kroons (EEK).  For money exchange euros are good
choice. The fixed rate is 1 EUR=15.65 EEK. VISA card is very common and accepted everywhere. The average meal at restaurants costs about 150 EEK. Cup of coffee costs about 10 EEK.

The weather at the end of April is expected to be between zero and 25 °C. Besides sunshine you should be ready for slight rain. It might become cold at night, so take warm clothes with. However, this time of spring is one of the most beautiful times in Estonia.

Hotels:

It is recommended to book hotels during the March already, as this time, and especially at Volber (night before 1st May) is full of celebrations and parties. In a matter of fact, Estonia will join EU in 1st May, and parties at Tallinn will be extraordinary. There is online-registration possible in every hotel in Tallinn.

Academic Hostel is a perfect budget accommodation for students. Hostel is located in a brand-new building where all the rooms are newly furnished. The hostel is on the campus of Tallinn University of Technology, surrounded by quiet residential area and forest, with easy access to campus amenities, public transportation, affordable food and pubs. It’s a safe environment surrounded by jogging and skiing trails. http://www.academichostel.com/
