One of the challenges in playing a long tournament is finding good accommodation: hotels are fine for weekend events, but can be claustrophic and wallet draining for a week long event. With the need to access online games databases, and of course to blog!, a broadband connection is also pretty much essential.
Maybe we should set up a chain of 'chess friendly rentals' around the globe. Any recommendations for great tournaments & accommodation welcome.

A board and a laptop next to a window with a view like that would be awesome.
that kind of view could only be achieved in an aeroplane - not ideal as a base for a tournament!
They once held the British rapidplay on a train.
