IEEE Tabletop 2008 is taking place at the luxurious Park Hotel in the heart of Amsterdam.
Attendees are entitled to discounted accommodation at the Park Hotel. Please quote IEEE Tabletops 2008 when making your reservation. The reduced rate is on a first-come first serve basis.

Overlooking the Singelgracht canal, and just a few footsteps from the many attractions of the popular fashion and museum district, the Park Hotel is ideally situated to enable you to get a taste of Amsterdam, even on a tight schedule. Here you can find details of how to get to the hotel.

Local Attractions
Whether you would prefer to take a stroll (or cycle) around the picturesque vistas and lakes of Vondelpark or try your luck at Holland's largest casino there is plenty to keep you entertained on the hotel's doorstep, and if you travel just a few meters further you can choose from cultural highlights such as the famous Rijksmuseum, the Van Goghmuseum and Concertgebouw.
Shopping
If you still have time for a quick shopping trip after all that, there are a wide range of shops and many other lively experiences to be found in the nearby Leidseplein (Leidse Square). Or if it's designer labels that you're after then P.C. Hooftstraat, which hosts a huge range of big brand names is the place for you.
And Finally...
No visit to Amsterdam would be complete without a trip on one of the many glass- roofed canal boats. As an attendee to IEEE Tabletop 2008 you will be invited on a relaxing cruise along the Singelgracht canal before the evening meal on 2nd October, so that is one less thing for you to worry about squeezing in!
