Accommodation
Conference delegates can chose from a variety of accommodation in and around the city centre of Padua.
Padua is a quite popular city in northern Italy, with art monuments that draw thousands of people every year: the tourist flow is fairly stable in each season, with some peaks in spring and autumn. In addition, Padua is only 30 minutes far from Venice by train and many tourists visiting Venice are normally advised to look for accommodation in Padua which is more economical. Therefore, we highly recommend you to make your reservations as soon as possible.
