It is absolutely necessary that we have ALL your nicks for every SOLO & TEAM tournaments before 2/8/12!!!

Some players of the French community booked in some strange places, so I think it's best if we make some things VERY clear: the partner hotels/residences REALLY are the cheapest around (and we're not getting money to make this statement, not even a bit...)
So please use the "Festival International des Jeux" password and book your rooms already before the big ones are gone and you're stuck with smaller, more expensive ones with tiny kitchens...

13.33€/day/pers. at the Maeva Cannes Verrerie (with a bakery around the corner)

OR

14.57€/day/pers. at the Pierre & Vacances Cannes Beach (with a pizza parlor across the street)

http://elyum-studio.com/wgc2012/?cat=40
These hotels are about 20mn on foot/5mn by bus from the Palais des Festivals de Cannes and less than 5mn from each other (the two blocks are side by side).

www.busazur.com/tarif/index.asp?rub_code=7 (1€/ride, 9.50€/10 tickets card, 11€/weekly pass)
