Location

Please note:
  • The symposium (including sessions, lunch, dinner, and exhibition) and the tutorials are not taking place at a hotel but at the ETH Zurich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology)! See Travel/Directions for further information.
  • Due to the fact that the majority of Zurich's hotels have a rather small number of rooms, no block reservation has been made. All reservations are handled by Zurich's tourist office which is called Zurich Tourism (phone +41-1-215 40 40). See Travel/Hotels for further information.

Distances

Even though Zurich is the largest city in Switzerland it is rather small compared to international standards. This means you do not need to rent a car. In addition, there is an excellent public transportation system and you can get anywhere in Zurich within 10-20 minutes by tram and bus.
