Accommodation
No special rates have been organized with any hotels. We suggest:
- Aalto Inn, Espoo (500m walk to the conference location)
unihome.fi/en/properties/aalto-inn - Radisson Blu Espoo (800m walk to the conference location)
https://www.radissonhotels.com/en-us/hotels/radisson-blu-espoo - Töölö Towers
unihome.fi/en/properties/toolo-towers - any other hotel in central Helsinki (15 minutes from the conference location by metro)
Most conference events will take place on the campus of Aalto University, though a few will be held in the city centre. The hotels in Espoo offer much more convenient access to campus, but the region has fewer outside amenities (e.g., restaurants).
WiFi
The Aalto University campus has “eduroam” and “aalto open”, both of which can be accessed without any authentication.
