Accommodation options
‘Bed and breakfast’ accommodation is available in Oriel College.
Please note that this accommodation will be in student rooms and, while fun and providing an opportunity to stay in this historic college, is not of hotel standard. Most rooms are for a single person, though a few ‘twin rooms’ or ‘double sets’ are also available. (A twin room is a room with two single beds. A ‘double set’ is a small suite which contains two bedrooms, each of which has a single bed.)
When booking for the conference, you will be given the option to reserve college accommodation.
