[Cesg-all] Travel Guides to Rome, Maps and Hotel Information






Dear CCSDS Community:
 
When making your travel arrangements to attend the meetings this spring, 
please remember that June is the beginning of the tourist season in Rome. 
You are advised to make your reservations early since hotel rooms and 
flights are already in short supply.  For a list of hotels recommended by 
our host agency ASI, please visit the CCSDS web site at 
http://public.ccsds.org/meetings/2006Spring/2006SpringHotels.aspx . 
 
In addition, I have included below a large collection of sites that you 
might find interesting or helpful in planning various aspects of your trip 
to Rome.
