Please book your hotel room individually and as early as possible. You don't have to wait until the registration/confirmation process is finished. Be aware of the hotel occupancy rate during spring time in Potsdam. We have no contingents for our conference. Furthermore, please check carefully the possibility of short-term cancellation to avoid unnecessary costs. Another possibility is to stay in Berlin (best near the train stations: main station, Zoologischer Garten and Charlottenburg). Traveling from Berlin to Potsdam every day takes some time, but there are several trains going very regularly.
