The Société Astronomique de France is negotiating a special rate with
	the Hôtel iBis (Accord group Hotels) Meudon-La-Forêt, Vélizy, close
	to the observatory (3 km). A block of room will be pre-reserved for
	IWCA-III participants, including breakfast.
	For this special fare, the SAF is handling the room booking.
        (Normal fare is about similar but not including the meals)
	Thursday and Saturday dinners will be taken there for all participants.
	We ask each participant to pay for one night in advance.
	SAF will go making reservations by blocks of 5 rooms at a time
	at the price below until December 15, 2003. After this date,
	room availability and price will no longer be guaranteed.
	The earlier and larger number of people make the reservation
	through the SAF, the lower the final price will be.
	The basic scheme is reservation:
	     - from Thursday, June 3, evening (check-in time 3 pm)
	     - to Sunday, June 6, morning (check-out time noon)
	Extension beyond the time will have to be negotiated with
	the Hotel. For shorter stays, the daily fare cannot yet be guaranteed.
	Please provide to the SAF all the information as early as possible.

	Hotel price (for information, subject to update for final payment):
	Single room, one person (half board):	 52 Euros per night
	Twin room, two persons (half board):	 74 Euros per night
	(half board: including dinner and breakfast)

	Staying at this Hotel to attend the IWCA-III meeting is not
	mandatory, but transportation to/from this Hotel only will be
	provided. We ask also other participants to fill out section IIb
	if they stay elsewhere but wish to join us for dinner.
