We recommend reserving your hotel rooms at:

Flemings Selection Frankfurt City, Eschenheimer Tor 2 60318 Frankfurt
The Moxy Frankfurt City Center, Thurn-Und-Taxis-Platz 8, 60313 Frankfurt
The Residence Inn Frankfurt City, Center Stiftstraße 43, 60313 Frankfurt

Rooms for the Marriott family Moxy and Residence Inn hotels were available through at least April 23rd via a contingent; contingent rates may still be available. Book your group rate for MIT Club of Germany

If you'd like to stay somewhere else, we recommend you make sure to book as soon as possible as hotels will fill up and become more expensive as the event draws closer. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Frankfurt, we would suggest avoiding the area close to the Hauptbahnhof.

For the foodies among you, we have coordinated with top local restaurants, for example:

Margarete: "In the heart of Frankfurt's Old Town, right near the Römer and surrounded by museums and galleries, lies Margarete – a place characterized by urban flair and warm hospitality. Our philosophy is simple: We want you to have a great time with us! Whether as guests in the bistro or enjoying a five-course menu in the restaurant, while shopping in the Magazin, or when planning your event with us." (Credit: Margarete website)
Oosten Realwirtschaft am Main: "‘Fooding am Main’ combines high-quality food with a modern, cultural lifestyle. In the centre of Frankfurt, we are creating a unique environment where innovative cuisine, local ingredients and a relaxed atmosphere come together. It is an invitation to experience and celebrate culinary delights in all their facets." (Credit: Oosten website)

Frankfurt is a vibrant city with plenty to do for everyone. If you have time in Frankfurt beyond the AGM, perhaps one or more of the following may be of interest to you:

The Senckenberg Natural History Museum has been highly recommended by one of our alums for both adults and children
If the Senckenberg isn't quite your style, you have 38 more museums to choose from -- all part of the Museumsufer Frankfurt (although not all are directly on the riverbank) representing nationally and internationally important museums and art galleries
Römerberg, the heart of the medieval "Altstadt" is always worth a visit, even though the beautiful half-timber buildings you view today are mostly reconstructed
Palmengarten, the Frankfurt Botanical Garden, is likely to be an exceptional draw with the typically-mild temperatures of late May

Please purchase your AGM tickets as soon as possible, but no later than Sunday, May 18th.

If you plan to attend any or all of the optional events, please make sure to add the items to your reservation as well:

Friday, 14:00: Tour of the Deutsche Bahn ICE Maintenance Facility
Friday, 18:30: Informal dinner at "Zu den 12 Aposteln" on personal tabs (optional)
Sunday, 10:00: Exhibition "Aufbruch und Wandel - das neue Frankfurt und die Gegenwart" at the Deutsches Architekturmuseum
Sunday, 10:00 alternative: Walk along the Main Riverbank with strawberries and Sekt
Sunday, 12:00: Light lunch at Oosten Frankfurt on personal tabs
