Accommodation

In Milan you can find many accomodation solutions (e.g., hotels, flats, etc.) with widely varying prices. However, we are aware that accomodation prices in Milan are somewhat higher than the italian average.

Discounted rates at many hotels in Milan will be made available to participants to the Magnet2024 conference. Details on how to get such discounted rates will be sent by e-mail upon registration acknowledgement.
