Accommodation

The following is a list of hotels for which we negotiated a discount rate. Please make a reservation yourself and mention IABEM 2013, Universidad Catolica to obtain the rate. Also state clearly the hotel name when contacting the corresponding reservation office as some handle reservations for several hotels.

Foreigners who present their immigration slip/passport and pay in US dollars or with foreign credit card don't pay VAT. Otherwise you will be charged an additional 19% VAT (not included in the prices below). Hotel prices given in Chilean pesos (CLP) will be converted to US dollars using hotels' own rates if you want to make use of the VAT exemption. Confirm at check-in to avoid disappointment. The current exchange rate is about 480 Chilean pesos for one US dollar.

Here is a map with the hotels from the list. They are all in the neighborhood of Metro Line 1 (linea 1). To get to the conference, take this line towards the west (direction San Pablo), change to line number 5 at Metro station Baquedano (also on the map) towards the south (direction Vicente Valdés) and get off at Station St. Joaquín, right in front of campus St. Joaquín of the Catholic University. For more details see Practical Information.

(Just to warn you, Metro Line 1 has a station Universidad Católica which is not the right place to go for IABEM.)
