вы хочете скандалов - их есть у меня

Организаторы COSPAR разослали участникам сообщения, что без объяснения причин, без комментариев гостиница "Университетская" отказалась размещать участников конференции.
А там, судя по всему, немало людей забронировали номера.


A few days ago the hotel management informed us that they would not be able to honor our block booking for the Assembly despite confirmed and prepaid accommodation. This is the first time in our 20-years of experience that a hotel has cancelled such a big group without any official explanation or efforts to somehow solve the problem of its guests. The chairman of our board of directors and almost all senior executives of our company met with the management of "Universitetskaya" hotel (it belongs to Russian Orthodox Church), and they have unofficially explained us that due to recent changes of management they have faced several problems, one of which is the technical condition of rooms.

We have no idea whether the reasons given by the hotel administration are true and whether they are really going to close some rooms for urgent renovation.

Nevertheless, the Universitetskaya continues to sell their rooms through the global booking networks (Booking.com) and to take reservations for dates which we have been denied (August, 1-10). We feel it is our duty, therefore, to warn you about possible difficulties in dealing with the “Universitetskaya” hotel. We currently have a group of scientists living in this hotel and feedback from them is that location close to University is the only positive thing about hotel “Universitetskaya”.
