DIRECTIONS

From the Airport to the Main Train Station

A taxi from the airport to the city center should cost 30-50 PLN (8-13 Euro).
There is just one bus (406) at the Airport (Lotnisko), which goes to the Main Train Station (Dworzec Główny - DWORCOWA stop). You need to go a bit straight and then right to get from the DWORCOWA bus stop to the Main Train Station tram stop.

From the Main Train Station to the Conference Venue and Kredka

Take tram 2 direction Biskupin or tram 9 direction Sępolno or tram 17 direction Sępolno. In all cases get off at the PL. GRUNWALDZKI stop (a big square, 8 stops from the train station). You can see Kredka (crayon) and Ołówek (pencil).
IMPORTANT: ALL THE KREDKA RESERVATIONS HAVE BEEN MOVED INTO OŁÓWEK.
If you go to the direction opposite to Kredka, you will reach the Grunwaldzki Bridge and the conference venue.

From the Main Train Station to some hotels

Take tram 9 direction Sępolno or tram 17 direction Sępolno and get off at pl. Bema (4 stops). Just before pl. Bema you can see Tumski Hotel on your left. On the opposite side, you will find John Paul 2 Pilgrim's House. If you pass the Tumski Hotel and go further into the island you should notice HP Park Plaza.
