The following is a listing of hotels that you can consider when looking for accommodations for the 2009 iGEM Jamboree.

We recommend booking your room as soon as possible. See the schedule for more information. Remember that this year the Jamboree will take place from Saturday October 31 to Monday November 2 (with Friday night set-up and practice sessions optional). Keep this in mind when planning your trip.


Notes:
We recommend housing at least 3 students per room.

All iGEM Block rooms are available on a first-come, first-serve basis so it is recommended that you make your reservations early.
