Hotels
The ZTF Meeting will be in the historical centre of Paris (near the Cathedral, the "Quartier latin", the Pantheon, etc.). Any hotel near Place Jussieu would be good, but be careful, sometime the hotel room in French hotels could be small. The typical price range for decent hotel in Paris is ~100€/night to ~200€/night.
Note that downtown Paris is not that big and the public transportations works quite well (subway, bus, city-bikes "velib'" etc. )
Here is nonetheless a small list of hotels, these are only examples, check on booking or equivalent for choices :
- http://www.familiahotel.com/ | ~120€/night
- http://www.hotel-paris-minerve.com/ | ~150€/night
- Hotel Trianon Rive Gauche | ~150€/night
- https://www.hotelvendomesaintgermain.com/fr/ | ~200€/night

COVID 19 rules.
Please check the official government webpage here: https://www.interieur.gouv.fr/covid-19-international-travel
- Once in France, there are no special regulations anymore even though the mask is recommended and sometime mandatory for health-related shops like Pharmacies. The University recommends wearing mask in small meeting rooms.
- To enter France, Please check the official web page:
But for indication, the 20th of April, the following rules applies- For travelers vaccinated within the meaning of European regulations, no more tests is required on departure. Proof of a complete vaccination schedule becomes sufficient to arrive in France, regardless of the country of origin, as was the case before the distribution of the Omicron variant.
- For unvaccinated travellers, the obligation to present a negative test to travel to France remains, but the measures on arrival (test, isolation) are lifted when they come from countries on the "green" list, characterized by a moderate circulation of the virus.
- When unvaccinated travelers come from a country on the "orange" list, they must continue to present a compelling reason justifying the need for them to come to mainland France and may still be subject to a random test on arrival. Travelers who test positive will have to isolate themselves, in accordance with the recommendations of the Health Insurance.
- For travelers vaccinated within the meaning of European regulations, no more tests is required on departure. Proof of a complete vaccination schedule becomes sufficient to arrive in France, regardless of the country of origin, as was the case before the distribution of the Omicron variant.
- Check on the official web page for the "color" of your country (most are green)
Check here concerning COVID-19 test prices in France. For non-French antigen tests can be made roughly in every pharmacies for 22€ and results should be available within a couple of hours. If you need a PCR test, you need to schedule it. The best way is through the Doctolib app I beleive. PCR tests are ~50€.
