Accommodation

Special reduced hotel rates have been negotiated by the secretariat and will be available according with the hotels’ availability.

‍

Rates do not include city tax, which is paid directly at the hotel during check-in.

‍

Please note that September is high season in the city of Lisboa so you should book your accommodation as soon as possible.

‍

There are an increasing number of fake websites claiming to offer hotel services.

We would like to alert all members and delegates to be aware of possible scams, and only use trusted online registration and accommodation services for bookings.
