In continuation of the long tradition of our regional meeting series,
known nowadays as "Central European Symposium on Theoretical Chemistry"
(CESTC) evolved from the former Triangular Seminars, we organize the
CESTC-2004 Symposium this year in Hungary, at the Lake Balaton, on the
Tihany Peninsula, between September 30 and October 3.
|
|
Following our tradition, we expect participants first of all from
Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia. A limited
number of participants will be personally invited from other countries.
Our meetings have always been small, and are intended to be kept so, in
order to facilitate deep scientific discussions in a friendly atmosphere.
The total number of participants is also limited in Tihany. In case of
overbooking, national coordinators of the above mentioned countries will
be asked to help the organizers to select among the applicants.
Therefore, we kindly ask you to keep the
deadlines given below, and register at your earliest convenience.

CONFERENCE SITE
|
|
CEST-2004 will be organized in a hotel complex at Tihany named
"Kastély and Park Hotel". It consists of three buildings situated
in a large, nice park right at the coast of Balaton. The surrounding area is
also scenic, including the harbour of Tihany, the hills and pathways on the
peninsula, and especially the historic Abbey on the top of Tihany hills.
|
|
Most participants will be accomodated in Hotel Park*** where
the conference events will also take place. A few, somewhat cheaper
rooms in Hotel Strand** will also be at our disposal. These buildings are
within 100 meters from each other.
|
|
Being on the lakeside, the hotel has a good beach in its garden.
However, the weather (and especially the water) will be presumably too
cold for convenient swimming.
|
|
Car parking is available in the hotel garden and in its proximity.
|
|
REGISTRATION AND FEES
|
|
Accommodation will be
available in two categories, ** (110 Euros) and *** (130 Euros).
This includes participation as well as food and lodging for three days.
The fee
should be paid in cash or via a major credit card at the hotel
reception desk upon arrival.
|
|

convenience by filling out the registration
