Hotel Booking

Hotels in Athens do not follow a common pricing or service policy. They are regulated to have a ceiling (top) price but everything depends upon the demand and supply per given period of time. Due to serious complaints by our conference participants in the past we decided to collaborate with an agent and establish what we call a conference hotel. For a list of hotels which are considered as a conference hotel please click here. The price we set in the registration form (one year prior to the conference dates) is the ceiling price with a small discount. An effort is made to reserve the best rooms of the hotel at the given price set on the registration form. We never bargain over price. It is quite possible that the same hotel during our conference undersells their rooms but our arrangement with the agent guarantees the number of rooms we need in different hotels. Of course, since you pay through the Institute we give total and per item receipts to each participant. As an Institute we do NOT sponsor any hotel or area in Athens. However, if you do not book with the conference hotel, it is our recommendation that you book very close to Syntagma Square (the central square of Athens) with a “luxury” hotel.
