As you all know, the deadline for the room bookings was last week. Since there seems to be an incredible interest for the tournaments (nearly 500 registrations in total as of today), we renegotiated the contract with the hotel. They will continue accepting bookings at the discounted price as long as they have enough rooms left. So, it’s not too late to book your room!
We also added an interactive map of Downtown Montreal: http://echecsmontreal.ca/cycc/lieu_en.html
