Due to the large number of events in September 2017, the hotel capacity in Madrid will be extremely limited. For your convenience, i~HD was able to block a large number of rooms (two nights, check in on 20/9; check-out on 22/9) at a special rate (165 Euro / night, breakfast incl.) in the Novotel hotel Madrid Center, only 11 km from the airport.

In case you wish to take up this offer, please be so kind to mention this in the registration form and transfer the amount 330€ (two nights) to i~HD’s bank account (bank details see below).

The hotel Reservation will then be handled by us once we receive the amount on our bank account.
The discounted room rates can only be reserved by bank transfer, not by credit card.
The room reservation will be confirmed in writing (by email) along with a PDF receipt.

First come (paid) first served.

May we kindly remind you that participation in the conference is for free.
