The Warsaw University of Technology main campus is located in the southern part of the Inner‐City district of Warsaw (Śródmieście Południowe). It is centred on Plac Politechniki, which has its own tram stop. The Metro Politechniki metro station (line M1), which is also served by several tram and bus lines, is within five minutes walking distance. The main train station (Warszawa Centralna) can be reached on foot within 15 to 20 minutes or by tram (direct connections). There also are direct bus connections from Warsaw Chopin Airport to Metro Politechnika (line 188).
There are numerous hotels, cafés, restaurants within easy walking distance from the venue, as well as a few of the city’s main parks and key sights.
Part of the conference, especially keynotes, will be held in the neo‐baroque main buiding (Gmach Głowny, pictured above). Parallel sessions will be held in a nearby building on the same campus.
Transportation
There are two airports in Warsaw: Warsaw Chopin (WAW) and Warsaw Modlin (WMI, outside the city, for Ryanair flights only). There are city buses and trains operating from Warsaw Chopin to the city centre. Taxis to the city centre are affordable. From Warsaw Modlin, you can take a train from a nearby train station (the bus shuttle to the station is covered by the ticket price) or a bus to the city centre. The taxis from Modlin are not recommended because they will be overpriced.
Warsaw is served by international trains from almost all neighbouring countries (direct connections from Berlin (5 hours), Vienna (7.5 hours), Prague and Vilnius (8.5 hours each), as well as Kyiv (17.5 hours). Train timetables are available on the Polish Railways website.
