The most convenient and cost effective option to get to the WZZRD Gaming center in Enschede for international travellers is to fly into Amsterdam Schipol Airport and take the intercity train from the airport, direct to Enschede. This journey takes approximately 2 hours (although it has been known to take 3 on a bad day). The airport is connected to the main national train service, and you can find alternative routes via train here. You want to travel to Enschede D not Enschede (Enschede D is the first stop, Enschede is after). Alternatively you can travel to Bremen airport in Germany and then across the border to Holland, this route has been known to be cheaper for Scandinavian travellers. Other airports you can consider travelling to are Eindhoven & Berlin. Its street address for your GPS is WZZRD Cinestar Colosseum 60 7521 PT Enschede
WZZRD have partnered with the University of Twente to ensure that once again we are able to rent out university accommodation for the event- This accommodation is both very cheap but very social as all the gamers are centrally located together and most people stay up chatting, drinking and playing poker. We have centralised the booking so that you can book either a log cabin or a hotel room (the logica hotel, also on university campus) through WZZRD. This means that we can keep the low rate and make sure only players & specs can stay there, the two options available are:
Budget: €18 Per Person, Per Night or €225 for the whole Cabin - Log Cabin
The huts hold 15 people. The beds are without bedlinnen so a sleepingbag might come handy, aswell as a towel for the showers. Book Here
Comfort: €41 Single €58 Double Per Night - Logica University Hotel
Logica has 24 rooms, all of which can be used either as single or double rooms. Most rooms have a shower and a toilet. The rooms are divided over four apartments. Each apartment has a common lounge room, provided with telephone, TV, coffee and tea facilities and a minibar.
