Accommodation for the 35th World Armwrestling Championships 2013 (WAF)

World Armwrestling Championships 2013:

Hotel Dom Marynarza – is FULLY BOOKED│ Image Source: worlds2013.armpower.net
VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE ORGANIZER OF THE UPCOMING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS!

” Very important announcement from the organizer of the upcoming World Championships!

Accommodation during the championships.

Important! The organizer of the World Armwrestling Championships 2013 in Gdynia (Poland) would like to inform all competitors that they must check in at the hotels which have already been provided for them by the Organizer and the national federation, to which a given athlete belongs.

Those who do not comply with this recommendation, shall not be allowed to take part in the competition!

The process of organizing an event of such an importance as a world championship is very complex. The organizer has to book hotel rooms for a great number of participants in advance and is required to make a down payment.

The organizer has to pay for each booked hotel room, even if no one would stay in the room,  as it was already the case at the European Championships in Poland in 2004, or the World Championships held in Bulgaria in 2007.

Therefore, we appeal to all competitors to rely on their national federations as far as the accommodation matter is concerned. Remember that only your national federation is authorized to contact the organizer.

The EAF and WAF regulation of 2004 clearly states that the organizer imposes on competitors the obligation to be accommodated in a place determined by the organizer.

Please, do not seek accommodation on your own. The organizer has already booked hotel rooms for everyone. Please, comply with that. ”

The transfer between hotels and venue │35th World Armwrestling Championships 2013 (WAF)

35th-World-Armwrestling-Championships-2013-Gdynia-Poland-logo

World Armwrestling Championships 2013:

” There was a question about transfer between hotels and venue. I can answer right now:

Every competitor will receive maximum 8 coupons for taxi trip between hotel and venue. Taxi will wait at the morning near the hotel and at the evening after finals near the sport hall. Every taxi taking 4 coupons (maximum 4 persons) and going to your hotel.

So you will get maximum 8 coupons to go to the sport hall and to go to the hotels for all days you stay (4 event days).

If you want to go alone, or less than 4 people – you have to give 4 coupons or pay a taxi fee. Taxi fee is 7 PLN for entrance and about 2 – 2,50 pln for 1km. So its about 15-20 pln for 1 trip (5-7usd).

There will be one official taxi company for our event and we suggest to use only them. They will make a special prices for all of you.

There is some taxi cars in Gdynia, where for the same trip you will pay about 50-100 pln (16-33 usd) or more. That’s why I suggest to use official taxi company.

Other trip prices:
hotel Gdynia to Gdansk Old Town – day 60zl. night 80zl…. (20 / 27 usd)
hotel Gdynia to Galeri Baltyckiej – day 50zl. night 70zl…. (16 / 23 usd)
hotel Gdynia to Fashion House (outlet center) – day 80zl. night 110zl…. (27 / 35 usd)
hotel Gdynia to Night Club Bodega – day 25zl. night 35zl… (8 / 12 usd)
hotel Gdynia to Night Club Rozi – day 40zl. night 60zl (13 / 20 usd)

night starts at 10PM and ends at 6AM. Sunday prices are like night prices.
