anyone have local knowledge on Lausanne and places to stay ?
All the hotels except the $800/night ones appear to be full up for the week around Worlds..

The campsites don’t take reservations. Camping Vidy is very nice, right on the lake, about 2k from the race start: but I’m nervous about showing up jetlagged and finding no campsites available. Emailing them to ask about availability got this response:

Hello ! Thank's for the mail.
For the Triathlon no problème, directly coming, welcome !!
Best regard Camping vidy Lausanne

which appears to have lost something in the translation..
