Economical Housing

All hotel prices will be high in Montreal in August. We think that the Queen Elizabeth is the choice for those who want to stay in the midst of the conference and in the center of the city at a legendary hotel.

For 'cheap' rooms visit the following sites:

www.mcgill.ca/residences/summer/ This is the official site of the McGill University Summer Residence. Rooms vary from $35-40/night and each room is equipped with a small refrigerator. It is possible to rent a room by the week. There are shared bathrooms. It is possible to walk to the conference hotel from here.
