Accommodation

There are many hotels and guest houses to choose from in York. Below are details of a few hotels which are close to the conference venue and links to other accommodation.

Please be aware that on Wednesday 31 August 2005 there is horse racing at York Racecourse.  This tends to attract many visitors to York and so accommodation can be difficult to secure.  I therefore suggest you consider booking accommodation as early as possible to avoid disappointment.

Please check all rates and details with the hotel before booking, which are subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed. These details are provided in good faith, as a guide, but do not come with any particular recommendation.
