The workshop takes place at the IMT Atlantique in Nantes. It is located in the area of Nantes called "Chantrerie". Closeby areas are "La Beaujoire" and "Carquefou", the latter being an independent town in the north-east of Nantes.
"La Beaujoire" is conveniently connected with the "Chantrerie" area and the IMT Atlantique by public transport (bus lines C6 and 75). The corresponding bus stop near the IMT Atlantique is named "Chantrerie - Grandes Écoles".
While the hotels we list for "Carquefou" below are only 8 minutes by car away from the IMT Atlantique, getting back and forth by bus takes a bit more time as you have to change buses, taking the bus lines 85 and 75 or the bus lines 85 and C6. We still list those places as they might be an option regarding your budget.
From good experience, the areas of the SNCF train station "Gare" and the city center "Centre" are perfectly connected with the "Chantrerie" area (bus line C6 directly or tram line 1 in connection with bus lines C6 and 75 via "La Beaujoire").
Below we list a number of possible accommodations ordered by area (each with prices increasing from top to bottom). We provide links (when possible) to the hotels so that you can have a look. Verify please, that your choice is reachable by public transport to your convenience. Please note that we cannot make the booking. The participants have to do it individually using the method supported by their home institute. One option might be the booking platform booking.com.
An additional alternative might be staying in a bungalow at the inner-city Camping site of Nantes. Bookings can be done via their official website. Prices start from 50,- Euros per night. There is a direct bus connection to the IMT Atlantique using the bus line 75.
