Flights

Lufthansa - Official CarrierWe were able to negotiate special air rates with Lufthansa. With Munich being one of Lufthansa's most important hubs and one of Germany's biggest airports, we believe, this to be a good deal.

Lufthansa offers a discount of up to 20% on their flight rates. Our travel agent (flights@im2007.org) has arranged everything to make booking for you as simple as possible. We therefore suggest to contact him, although you might also contact any Lufthansa sales or reservations office and quote the Code LH07MUC005. You might also contact Lufthansa by phone on 1-800-645 3380 from North America or 01803-803-803 in Germany. Lufthansa might ask you to provide a proof of participation at the conference to offer you those special rates.

Our travel agent is pleased to book flights for you. You might contact him at flights@im2007.org.

The IATA-Code for Munich Franz-Josef-Strauß Airport is MUC.


Hotels

We negotiated special rates with some hotels in Munich. As the conference takes place at the university, we selected several hotels in several price and quality ranges. The rates we negotiated are only available by using our hotel reservation form.

All hotels listed here offer excellent public transport connections to both Munich Airport and our university.

All rates negotiated include a full breakfast buffet at the hotel.

Maritim Hotel München

This new 4-star hotel is conviniently located next to Munich's main station, from where an underground train running every 5-10 minutes takes you within 10 minutes to the Neuperlach Station. It is also within walking distance (~10 minutes) to both the welcome reception location (next to Marienplatz) and the conference dinner location.

Close to the city center, it is also a good base to do some sight-seeing, visit Munich's famous Beergardens or enjoy some cultural events.

Holiday Inn City Center München

This 4* hotel is located next to the suburban-train station "Rosenheimer Platz", offering a direct service to "Neuperlach Station". Travel time is approximately 10 minutes. Located 500 m from Isartor, the eastern most point of Munich's old town, it is also a good base to explore Munich. In the neighbouring disctricts "Au" and "Haidhausen", several nice, traditional restaurants, bars and pubs are located. The famous Beergarden "Paulaner am Nockherberg" is 5 minutes to walk away.

Hotel Website

Mercure Neuperlach

The 4* hotel Mercure is located next to the subway and suburban train station in Neuperlach. To get to the city center, one should calculate approximately 10 minutes, with trains running less frequently at night. Being on the south eastern boundary of Munich, this hotel is the closest to the conference location, but for those who'd like to use the opportunity to see Munich, it is quite remote.

Hotel Website

Ghotel

Ghotel is a 3* hotel for the more budget conscious traveller. According to our travel agent, it's almost as nice as a 4* hotel. It is located within walking distance (3-5 minutes) from Munich's most central place, the famous Marienplatz and the Viktualienmarkt. From there, the suburban train takes you to Neuperlach in 10 minutes. This hotel is almost next door to the welcome reception location, the conference dinner location is approximately 20 walking minutes through Munich's main shopping street away - alternatively, several suburban trains connect from the Marienplatz to there.

Close to the Hofbräuhaus and virtually almost all important sights, this is a good place to both explore Munich and enjoy the conference.

Hotel Mirabell

The clean 3* Hotel Mirabell is approximately 5 walking minutes away from Munich main station and 3 minutes away from the Maritim Hotel. Therefore, it is as close to all attractions as the Maritim is.

Note on hotels in Germany

In Germany, hotels are classified using "stars". A five star (5*) hotel is considered a top of the notch high class hotel, 4* hotels are very comfortable (first class hotels). 3* hotels (tourist class) are probably the minimum one would want to book in big cities like Munich, although in rural areas they might offer an excellent service.

If you should decide not to use our booking service, please be aware, that - unlike in most english speaking countries - hotel rooms prices vary according to the amount of guests booked for one room. So expect a double room to be more expensive then a single.
