Arrival and accommodation

Accommodation

It is now possible to book a room for your overnight stay in Graz via the booking platform of the Congress Office of the City of Graz (see link below). A very large number of rooms in various hotel categories have been reserved for the IVG Congress, but we would still like to advise you not to wait too long before booking in order to have enough choice. The offer that you can currently find online will also be extended. Please note that the bookings are administered by the City of Graz, the IVG organisation team cannot process individual booking requests.
