Accommodation

Sufficient accommodation has been reserved on behalf of Symposium delegates at Robinson College itself, which is offering us very competitive rates when compared with other accommodation in and around Cambridge.

The College accommodation is modern and of a medium-high 'hotel-standard', and all rooms have en-suite bathrooms (for details see Robinson College accommodation page).

It is possible to opt for the 'no-accommodation package' (for example for delegates based in Cambridge) but we should advise you that accommodation in Cambridge is not inexpensive and usually needs to be reserved well in advance. The conference accommodation also has the advantage of no daily travel expenses.

Meals, special diets and other refreshments

The complete Symposium package includes all meals from Friday evening to Tuesday breakfast (breakfast, light refreshments, lunch and an evening meal).

Arrangements can be made for those requiring special diets - but please tell us in advance using the Registration form.

There is a college bar, where you can purchase drinks and light refreshments. Robinson College is also just a few minutes walk from the heart of Cambridge, in case you wish to explore the excellent local 'hostelries' and restaurants.
