Accommodation

There are hotels and apartments close to PGI and farther away, with quite enough capabilities to accommodate the Conference participants.

 

Additionally, there is a small hotel belonging to Kola Science Center with about 10 rooms (5 minutes walk from PGI). There are not only single but also double-bed and even triple-bed rooms in it. For booking it you will have to contact the Local Organizing Committee (LOC).

 

Also you can book a room in Kirovsk and use regular bus connection between Kirovsk and Apatity: 30-40 min and 60 RUB one way, about every 15-20 min during day time. If we can we will organize connection from and to Kirovsk.

LOC recommends following hotels in Apatity:

In the case you are booking private apartments (not hotels) please do not hesitate to ask the owners whether a proper receipt will be issued and/or whether they accept bank cards. Please note that you will need to be registered by your host. This is always done by hotels but you need to discuss this in advance with your host in case of booking private apartments.

 

Please note! Foreigners must register their stay on the territory of the Russian Federation, the official documentation of which is required to be presented at the Russian border on their leave.

 

Hotels provide their guests with all required documents but in case you accommodate in a private apartment, you have to take personal responsibility for registration and get it in the migration office. Actually, it may take much time and effort.

 

So, we strongly recommend you to choose being accommodated at a hotel in Apatity!

 

Typical nightly costs for hotel range around 2500 RUB but may be even twice cheaper. However, there are also more expensive variants, especially in Kirovsk for high season.

 

We will be very much obliged if you inform LOC (despirak@gmail.com) on your booking as soon as you made it, in order to keep a record of timely accommodation of all participants.
