Participants wishing to make their hotel reservation through our booking service are kindly asked to follow the instructions on the website. The links posted on ECF19 website provide switching to room reservation procedure. Having clicked the links, you will see the information on the reservation procedure in each hotel and choose whether to proceed with reservation or terminate the process in the chosen hotel. When choosing the hotel, please pay attention to the number of rooms available for reservation.
If you decide to make reservation in a different way, there may be no rooms available for the period of ECF19 conference. We would like to inform you kindly at the time of the conference Kazan is normally fully booked. The given reservation procedure does not mean that the Organizing Committee claims its responsibility for the process or confirmation of reservation, since having clicked the posted links, the participants start conversing directly with the hotel reservation service.

In addition to hotels the Organizing Committee can provide the young participants of the conference are not expensive rooms in the dormitory. In this case, ordering room participants should contact the committee directly at Nicholas Dushin by e-mail: ndushin@bk.ru.
