Arrival
From the Budapest airport you can reach the Eastern Railway Station
(„Keleti”) by the airport minibus service. It leaves every 15-20 minute,
and it takes about 40 minutes to reach the railway station. The fee is 1800
HUF/person. Some of the cab drivers hanging around the airport like
to rip off tourists, so be careful. If you want to go by cab, you should
order it by phone at the following numbers:
466-6666, 266-6666, 355-5555, 222-2222. With some chance, English is spoken
there.
All the companies whose numbers are listed have set rates from the airport,
currently between 2800-3500 HUF.
Miskolc is located in the north-east of Hungary, about 170 km from Budapest.
The fastest and cheapest way to get there from Budapest is by an
intercity train (IC), which leaves from Budapest, Eastern Railway Station
at 7:00, 9:00, 11:00, 13:00, 15:00, 17:00, 19:00. (On the way back, the
trains for Budapest leave at the same time.) The ride takes 1 hour and 52
minutes. Most trains go directly to Miskolc, but some stop at Füzesabony.
The second class ticket costs about 2000 HUF, which includes a reserved seat.
If you just missed the intercity and do not want to wait, you might be able
to catch a fast („gyors”) train, which gets you to Miskolc in about 2 hours
and
20 minutes. It is not as nice as the intercity, so it is worth buying a first
class ticket (also about 2000 HUF). Do not take a slow („személy”)
train: it is
terribly slow, and you’ll be better off waiting for the next intercity or
fast train.
Two students of ours, carrying the poster of the conference, will be waiting
for you at the Miskolc railway station, at platform 1, from 12:30 till 21:00.
You’ll find the name and the address of your hotel bellow. MAC is downtown,
the other places are in a resort suburb of Miskolc, Miskolctapolca, and
they are within comfortable walking distance to one another
You can pick up your conference packet at your hotel. We will have people
stationed at three of the hotels – MAC, Kikelet, Bástya – to assist
you.
If anything comes up, call Gábor Forrai at 06-20-200-1684.
The opening reception given by the president of the University will start
at 19:00 at the University, at the Centre for Further and Continuing Education.
We will order cabs to take you to there, but you can also walk – it is about
20 minutes.
