We don't have a list of hotels other than the university accommodation. There aren't many on this side of Cambridge. The Møller Centre is very convenient, but unfortunately is fully booked for the week of the conference. Arundel House is fairly close (20-25 minutes walk, 5 minutes bike): http://www.arundelhousehotels.co.uk/cambridge/ There is a YourSpace apartment on Chesterton Road that is a similar distance and may be of interest: http://www.yourspaceapartments.com MSR Cambridge has a list of recommended hotels, but they've now moved to the other end of town, so the locations are not optimal: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/labs/cambridge/accommodations.aspx Hotel Felix is very nice, but a bit out of town (not too bad for getting to the CL on a bike): http://www.hotelfelix.co.uk There's a Doubletree by Hilton on the backs, which is about 25 minutes walk (5-10 minute cycle) from the CL, but very convenient for town (including the conference dinner). The Hotel du Vin is very nice, but a little bit further away from the CL: https://www.hotelduvin.com/locations/cambridge/ I hope this helps, David

Probably a bit too late: University Rooms also offers rooms in other colleges that are quite close and affordable: http://www.universityrooms.com/en/city/cambridge/home e.g. Churchill College is 1,25km away from the lab and costs 65 pound per night. David Chisnall wrote
