Hotels information

INRIA is much closer to Versailles than Paris. We therefore strongly recommend that you stay in Versailles during the workhop. Keep in mind that Versailles is a very visited touristic town and therefore the hotels are very busy. Early reservations are recommended.
For people having problems to find accomodation in Versailles, we recommend you to book a hotel in Paris near the train station "Gare Montparnasse".
Here is a list of hotels in Versailles and in Paris
