For your stay during the conference, you have two main options depending on your preferences:

Stay on campus for convenience: If you want to be close to the conference venue and avoid commuting, we recommend booking a room at Hotel EXE Campus, located within the UAB campus. This is the most convenient option, allowing you to be among the first to arrive at the sessions without worrying about transportation and you don’t mind walking 15-20 minutes.

Stay in Barcelona for a lively experience: If you prefer to enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of Barcelona after the conference, we suggest booking accommodation near the Gràcia neighborhood (Gràcia, Provença, or Pl. Molina). Gràcia is known for its cosmopolitan and bohemian ambiance, with a wide range of restaurants, cafes, and cultural spots. The Gràcia FGC train stations is directly connected to the UAB campus, making the commute approximately 30 minutes. Another option would be around the Provença FGC train station or the Plaça Catalunya FGC train station.
