Hotels
Here is a list of recommended hotels by the Nikhef secretariat that are close to the conference venue.
Lancaster hotel https://www.leonardo-hotels.com/amsterdam/leonardo-boutique-hotel-the-lancaster-amsterdam
Manor Hotel https://www.leonardo-hotels.com/amsterdam/the-manor-amsterdam Hotel Casa https://hotelcasa.nl/
OZO hotel Arena https://www.ozo-hotels.com/nl/hotels/ozo-hotels-arena-amsterdam Motel One https://www.motel-one.com/nl/hotels/amsterdam/hotel-amsterdam-waterlooplein/
Q-factory Hotel https://www.q-factory-hotel.nl/en/
We do get a special rate with Lancaster and Manor, but only if the hotel is not too busy and if the secretariat books the room. So maybe we can use that to book for some special speakers/organizers. We can't book for all participants.
The OZO hotel is further away (in Bijlmer), but always a lot cheaper.
The Q-factory is nice for young people as they have concerts and events there as well and it's very close to Nikhef.
In case you are interested for us to ask for Lancaster and Manor please get in touch with the organizers
