I stay at the Renaissance Amsterdam. It is a little closer to Central Station and a 5 minute walk from the Krasnapolsky. Can be kinda pricey if you cannot get a corporate rate.
Hi Angelo
We are staying at Hotel Amsterdam - De Roode Leeuw, which is a 4 star hotel with very good rates about 200 meters from the conference hotel.
Hope tp see you there!
Hi Angelo - I don't know Amsterdam as well as other cities in Europe, but I'll be there - I'm giving a talk on Asymmetries of Interpretation at 2:30 on November 5th. Are you speaking Angelo?
I'm looking forward to my first European CI Summit in Amsterdam in November. Interested to know who plans on being there. Also any hotel recommendations since I missed the deadline for the special SCIP rate for the conference hotel?

Well getting a clean feed takes a combination of good web-sources and appropriate taxonomy-based semantic filters. It seems your friend's RSS is clean and thus it may be worth to look at his/her taxonomy. Any insight?
