If you plan to attend the meeting we recommend that you make your
hotel reservation as soon as possible. Our workshop takes place the
same week a big business conference is held in Amsterdam and the city
has blocked a lot of hotel rooms for this event.

Hotels in Amsterdam can best be found via the usual on-line booking
services. The meeting venue can be easily reached by public transport
from hotels in/near the city centre. 

You can make a reservation through one of the following web sites:

   The Bridge Hotel (mention the magic codeword: "modest-8b" and you receive a 10% discount)

   Hotel Rembrandt

A possible low-budget alternative is the Stayokay Hostel Amsterdam-Zeeburg.
