Accommodation – Cork 2026

NUSOD attendees are asked to make their own accommodation arrangements and bookings independently. Cork offers a large selection of accommodation options within walking distance of the conference venue. UCC’s main campus is served by local bus routes 208, 220 and 205.

Hotel accommodation in Cork is in high demand during the summer tourist season. After an attendee receives notification of acceptance of their paper at NUSOD, it is strongly advised that they book their accommodation as soon as possible.
