Eurorfurence rooming help and general information

(1/3) > >>

Badinage:
So, I just found out that I'm terribly confused over how the rooming situation is handled at Eurofurence and would really like to get some help/tips before I make another mistake. :/

I've been registered for EF since early this year and was planning on rooming with my German friend this whole time who was registered with a double room. But now that has fallen through due to my misunderstanding of the room reg system (I had no idea I also needed to reserve a double room when my roomate already had  ??? ) Contacted staff and was too late, double rooms in the Maritim had filled up.

So now I'm trying to figure out what my options are. The staffmember I contacted mentioned the Intercity hotel. Is this in walking distance of the con? Is the booking of rooms there handled through the convention like at the Maritim?
Are all the "looking for roomate" posts in the other forum section looking ONLY for people who have already registered with a room?
Is there maybe a nearby Hostel I can reserve a bed at?

Someone please help, I'm so terribly confused by all this  :-\

Not sure if there are more options available, though, so I will leave any further info to those who know.

The intercity hotel is in walking distance. It is next to the train station, which is just across the road in front of the Maritim, and then past two small building blocks. Less than 5 minutes of walking.

Booking of rooms there is not handled through the convention.

Usually, yes.

The only exception would be if you can find an existing two-person room to join (making you the third person in that room), in which case it is possible for all three of you to switch from two-person to three-person per room registrations. As the rooms only have beds for two, this is an option if you don't mind a little tightness of space, and know the other two people.

There is a youth hostel, but I am afraid they, too, are booked out already.

Thank you, those responses are very helpful. I shall call up the intercity hotel just as soon as I discover how to call Europe.
On that topic, is it not acceptable to be using these forums to look for a roomate for the intercity hotel?

I believe you can email the Intercity hotel and make reservations; At the very least, they do have a email. Furthermore, you can also join in as a third person in a double room, so long as they are still available; But I suppose they are since it was suggested as a option.

Don't quote me on this one, though, I doubt it is a problem to post about finding roommates for the Intercity hotel, if you so wish. I distinctively recall there being at least one post about a large group of furries staying there, but I can't for the life of me recall where I saw it..
