Hotels in Groningen

DisCoTec 2024 will take place in Groningen, The Netherlands (see information about the venue here). We strongly recommend booking a room as soon as possible: mid June is a busy period in the Groningen area.

The DisCoTec events will take place in the Zernike campus, which is located in the north part of the city. The campus is about 4 km from the city center, where most hotels are located. Still, we recommend staying in the center, as there are good bus connections with the Zernike campus. For transport information, we recommend to use 9292 or Google Maps.

You can book accommodation using well-known platforms such as booking.com and airbnb.

Alternatively, we have arranged some limited block reservations and special deals at selected hotels for DisCoTec participants. These rooms are available on a first-come, first-served basis. For details about room types etc. please see the hotel websites, or contact the hotel directly. To secure your booking, please follow the instructions below.
