Accommodation
Delegates attending ECFG9 can book accommodation at Pollock Halls (University of Edinburgh) or in city hotels. You are advised to make your booking as soon as possible. Edinburgh is a popular tourist city and accommodation can be difficult to obtain at short notice.
Pollock Halls (University of Edinburgh)
Pollock Halls form a large complex in parkland located about 2 km from George Square, which is the venue for the Scientific Sessions. The site borders Holyrood Park with Salisbury Crags and Arthur’s Seat forming a splendid backcloth. The accommodation here is mainly single ensuite rooms. Some double (twin rooms) are available.
Rooms can be booked by email – bed.breakfast@ed.ac.uk
Hotels
A range of 2-star to 4-star hotels are available within a radius of 3km of the location for the scientific sessions
