Planning

Travel:

Please make your own flight and train reservations as soon as you can in order to get good rates. The most convenient airport is Boston Logan (BOS).

The conference site is served by taxi (approximately $30/15 minutes from the airport) and by public transport (“T” subway, Harvard Square stop on the red line, $2/40 minutes  airport).

If you need assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Hotel: 

The following bed and breakfasts are close and offer very competitive rates:
  • http://irvinghouse.com/
  • http://www.afinow.com/
  • We have also secured a room rate of $209.00 per night at the Harvard Square Hotel (110 Mount Auburn St. Cambridge) from May 15-18.

    The rooms and the rate are based on availability; there are no rooms held. If you wish to make reservations, please call the reservations department directly at: 617-491-2222 or email reservations@theinnatharvard.com and refer to the group name: Data Citation Conference or group code: 331682 as soon as possible. Parking is $30 per night.

    There are also a number of other hotels conveniently located you can research them at: http://www.harvardsquare.com

    Parking:

    Boston has a good public transport system (and taxis at the airport and Harvard Square are plentiful). Many choose not to rent a car when traveling here. 

    Meals:

    We are happy to provide breakfast and lunch on Monday and Tuesday, and dinner on Monday night.

    If you do wish to drive here or rent a vehicle we recommend either staying at a hotel that offers parking, as other parking in the area is metered and quite limited.
