Could you give us an idea of what prices around CERN (hotels,
restaurants, etc.) are like ?

At conference like EPC and PyCon, the conference fees are usually
not a major cost factor - it's the accommodation, food and getting
there that makes up for 90% of the costs.

I've looked around on the CERN web-site, but couldn't find
any infos on e.g. hotel recommendations.

Thanks,
