Accommodation

A number of rooms in different fee categories have been pre-booked for WPA participants, since Reykjavík could be quite crowded during the conference period. We recommend that you submit your hotel booking as early as possible. Bookings for the pre-booked hotels are made via the conference registration form. Although we recommend the hotels below, participants are free to book rooms elsewhere.

For further information please contact KOMUM conferences at info@komum.is.

Full payment is required upon booking via on-line card payments. Accepted credit cards are VISA and Mastercard. On-line payments are guaranteed through 3D secured site.

Make sure your card is 3D secure compatible. If you need assistance, please contact info@komum.is.

Note for Visitors from the United States

Iceland uses cards with the chip-and-PIN system, which requires a 4-digit PIN for purchases. If you have a traditional “swipe and sign” card, you may wish to inquire about getting a chip-card from your bank or a major credit card issuer before travelling.
