There are few hotels close to the conference venue, Ångström Laboratory. The following options offer a range of locations and accommodation types. Walking times are approximate.
Near Uppsala Cathedral and the castle, approximately 15 minutes’ walk from Uppsala Central Station and 30–35 minutes’ walk from the venue. Alternatively, take bus 12 from Kyrkogårdsgatan to Polacksbacken, or bus 1 to Regementsvägen, a short walk from Ångström Laboratory.
One of the closest hotels to the venue, approximately 10–20 minutes’ walk from Ångström Laboratory and 15 minutes’ walk from Uppsala Central Station. Bus 12 also stops near the hotel and runs to Polacksbacken.
Beside Uppsala Central Station, approximately 2 minutes’ walk from the station and 40 minutes’ walk from the venue. Alternatively, take bus 4 from the station to Polacksbacken.
An affordable option offering both hotel and hostel rooms, approximately 2 minutes’ walk from Uppsala Central Station and 35–40 minutes’ walk from the venue. Alternatively, take bus 4 from the station to Polacksbacken.
The meeting will be held at Ångströmlaboratoriet, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden.
Uppsala is easily reached from Stockholm Arlanda Airport by train or by bus (approximately 20 or 40 minutes) and from Stockholm Central Station by train (approximately 40 minutes). Further travel information will be added here.
