Fee & Budget

What it will cost.

We try to keep the costs for attending the alumni event as low as possible. There will be a small participation fee of €20 covering the lunch catering and snacks on Saturday. Alumni giving a presentation are exempt from the fee. If you sign up, we will send you an email with details to pay prior to the event. You can use either PayPal, direct bank transfer or (recommendable for international alumni) TransferWise.

If you are travelling on low budget, here are some suggestions to make ends meet: In Europe, fly with low-budget airlines like Ryanair or easyJet and make sure to compare fares on sites like Kayak. In Germany, travel on coaches or only on regional trains (without IC/ICE) while looking out for advance tickets. When you enrol, sign up to hopefully be matched with an alumnus/a who can offer free accommodation in Heidelberg.

Finding Accomodation

We help you to find a great place to sleep!

We are currently in contact with several different Hostels and Hotels to be able to offer you some good suggestions. As soon as we get all our feedback we will upload the best places to stay. But don't worry, Airbnb works quite well here in Heidelberg and you might have the time to already find some nice places using a search engine. Anything located in the old city (Altstadt) or near the main station (Heidelberg Hauptbahnhof) is perfectly connected to our conference site!

Here are some of our favorite hostels and hotels in Heidelberg. All of them are in a good location, either close to the dkfz communication center or right in the middle of the old city. All of them are well connected to the bus route system so you can easily travel around Heidelberg.

-->

Lotte Hostel

Lotte Hostel is a very small guest house right beneath the castle in the old city. They have 5-bed and 6-bed rooms, prices range from 23-32€/person-night. There is a direct connection to the main station (busline 33).

airbnb

By airbnb you will be able to find rooms or entire appartments in a very good location. Try to find something either near the main station (Hauptbahnhof), the main bus point Bismarckplatz and in the old city (Altstadt). Other good areas close to the conference and old city are Neuenheim, Handschuhsheim, Bergheim, Südstadt and Weststadt. Heidelberg is not very big, so in most of the cases you will find something close to everything!

Ibis Hotel Heidelberg

This two-stars level Hotel is situated right at the main station of Heidelberg (Hauptbahnhof). It is optimally conntected to the communication center by the busline 32 that leaves at the main bust stop.
