Accommodation and travel, NRSN members
NRSN covers accomodation for all NRSN-affiliated participants at Comfort Hotel Xpress Youngstorget from 14th-16th June.
Comfort Hotel Xpress Youngstorget boasts a central location, just 10 minutes' walk from the central station and, as the name suggests, right next to the Youngstorget square with its many bars, restaurants, cafés and outdoor terraces. For those arriving to Oslo Airport Gardermoen, the Flytoget airport express airport train will get you to Jernbanetorget in just 19 minutes. You'll find lots to see and do near the hotel, with walking distance to Oslo Cathedral near Karl Johans Gate, the Royal Palace and the unique Opera House.
The hotel is located 1.8 km from the event venue Tøyen Hovedgård (approx. 25-minute walk).
You will be accommodated mainly in double rooms, and you can indicate any preferred room mates in the registration form. If you have a good reason for needing a single room, please also indicate this in the form.
If you prefer to make your own accommodation arrangements in Oslo, you may indicte this in the registration form. Please note that we will not be able to cover the costs of other accommodation than at Comfort Hotel Xpress Youngstorget.
NRSN covers all travel costs up to 2500 NOK per participant (NRSN members and participants from member labs). You will need to book your own flight/train tickets to Oslo and we will reimuburse you after the event. Please book your tickets as early as you can to ensure that the costs are as low as possible.
Accommodation and travel, NORA members
NORA.ai offers funding of up to 1000 NOK for travel and accommodation for its members.
