Accommodation

Several solutions for accommodation can be easily found in Platanias. Nonetheless, June is  high touristic season for Greece and Crete and we have pre-booked a number of rooms at the Conference Venue as well as in some nearby hotels. There is public transportation between hotels all day long. Kindly find below a list of suggested hotels to book through the conference online system.

PLEASE NOTE that: As of January 1st, 2024, all hotels in Greece are required to implement a new environmental fee defined as the Climate Crisis Resilience Fee. This fee was established under Article 30 of Law 5073/2023 and replaces the previous Accommodation Tax. The fee is to be paid by guests staying in hotels, furnished rooms/apartments (rooms to let), and short-term rentals. Accommodations are responsible for collecting this fee from guests and remitting it directly to the tax authorities. The fee varies (from 0.50 to 10.00 euros per room, per overnight) based on the hotel’s category and the period of the stay.

The ONLINE BOOKING PLATFORM for the Conference is ready and you can book your accommodation through the same system you used for the abstract submission and the registration until the 10th of May. After this date, you can contact us for accommodation requests.
