Accommodation
The conference venue is in downtown Vancouver, which is an attractive and lively area with a huge selection of hotels within the walking distance. Here is a collection of available hotel options.
You can also find the list of online-bookable hotels here, in the order of closest distance to the venue.
Please note that hotel prices around the conference venue tend to be on the high range. However, there is a less attractive region of Vancouver close by, which is the downtown east side. Hotels in the east side may be less expensive, but we do not recommend staying in this area. If you are booking a specific hotel and you are not sure about the area, you can drop ouldooz@sfu.ca a line for suggestions.
If you want to stay closer to the mountains and further explore the beautiful nature of Vancouver, we recommend beautiful Burnaby Mountain and the following accommodation options on SFU Burnaby campus, within 30-45 minutes of public transit rides (bus or skytrain/bus) from the conference venue:
