| - | The following is a listing of hotels that you can consider when looking for accommodations for the 2007 iGEM Jamboree. Some of the hotels specifically have room blocks for iGEM participants. Most of these are a little bit further away from MIT but ''we are planning on providing transportation'' in the the form of shuttle buses. Other hotels are closer to campus but are more expensive. Additional details for each hotel are provided below. We recommend booking your room as soon as possible. See the [https://2007.igem.orgcalendar.cgi advanced schedule] for initial schedule information. A more detailed schedule will be posted soon. Remember that this year there will be several additional sessions in the days following the Jamboree. Keep this in mind when planning your trip.
