Recommended Hotels
Since ICNP 2017 will be held at a conference centre, we do not have the notion of a "conference hotel." In early September, we have surveyed hotels in Downtown Toronto, and have the following recommendations. Pricing and availability are subject to changes.
Pricing will be more affordable if you venture further away from downtown. As long as you stay on the subway line, you can usually get to the conference centre within 20-30 minutes.
