Accommodation

We have pre-booked rooms at some hotels close to the conference venue with special rates for conference participants.

Otherwise you are of course free to choose any hotel at websites such as Booking.com or similar services. You can also use private rental services such as AirBnb, which may be cheaper.

*Important*: You need to be registered during your stay in Russia. Hotels will do that automatically, but a private host needs to take care of it individually.

Also, make sure to keep the immigration card which you will receive (if not, do ask for it) on the plane or at the border since you will need it for the registration and for leaving the country.

In all cases, when making your booking, please indicate the full name of the conference in order to receive the special rates. If you need visa support, you can direct your request directly to the hotel.

Slavyanka

The hotel is situated near the Dostoevskaya metro station, about 15-20 min. from the conference venue by public transport. Rooms are available for all conference participants. Breakfast and free Wi-Fi are included. Prices are per room.

Rooms are pre-booked from 25.08 till 03.09, but you can of course change the dates according to your plans while making your individual booking.

The rooms should generally be booked directly through the hotel (see email/phone below). Please mention the name of the conference while making your booking to get the special rates.

Note that the Standard Twin room includes the option of staying in two private rooms with one single bed each, with a shared bathroom. This is a useful option in that each person pays half the price, while staying in a separate room. If you would like to use this option, please write to the conference organizers rather than directly to the hotel. Such accommodation will only be shared among conference participants of the same gender.

The full price list can be downloaded here (in Russian, but room names are in English, and prices are self-explanatory).
