Hotels

To be updated in March 2023

Childcare: We will need to discuss options on an individual level as no in-situ childcare will be available during the conference lectures. There will be English speaking staff.

Where to stay

On campus, there is only one place to stay, the student residence Residencia Erasmo (1). But availability might be very limited. Also, bare in mind that there are no restaurants (appart from the residence's canteen) open on campus and that last train from the city center leaves at 23:23 from Atocha. 

There is another residence, the CSIC Residencia de Estudiantes (2), located in the city, near the station Nuevos Ministerios. 

Finally, we have some special rate at Hotel Mediodía (3) near Atocha station at the city center. 

Otherwise, we recommend you to book a hotel near any of the stations of Cercanías train line C4. The station for IFT is "Cantoblanco Unniversidad" (~25min from Sol). From the station, there is a 20min walk to reach IFT.
Here are all the stations:


Some tips about areas: 

- Chamartin. Closer to campus, but farther from city center (~7km). A bit industrial.

- Nuevos Ministerios. Mid-way between the center (~4km) and the north. Finantial area.

- Sol. The very city center. Many retaurants, shops and bars around. A few landmarks around. 

- Atocha. Still quite central, but less busy in terms of bars. Next to retiro park and the art mille. 
 

Beyond train connections: 

- Plaza Castilla does not have train, but has a bus to campus (whose stop is closer to IFT). North area. 

- Alcobendas. It is a separate quiter town, maybe OK if you won't be attending the social activities. There is a bus that connects with campus.
