IMPORTANT ALERT: There are an increasing number of fraudulent websites and individuals that impersonate ERS and our Congress.
We would like to alert all our members and delegates to be aware of companies claiming to be ERS partners and we strongly advise you to only use the official ERS Congress partners. There is only one ERS International Congress website (www.erscongress.org). Please note that the official ERS partner for housing is Mico dmc, and the official registration partner is KIT Group GmbH. Your money may be at risk if you use unofficial websites and the ERS does not accept any responsibility for bookings made via unofficial websites and agencies.
The official accommodation partner for the ERS International Congress 2017 is MiCodmc.

Hotel accommodation for individual participants (up to 4 rooms)
A number of hotel rooms at preferential rates and in different price categories have been reserved in Milan and the surrounding areas for the ERS International Congress, 2017. As a service for individual participants, MiCodmc will arrange your hotel accommodation at no extra charge. A voucher will be sent out as confirmation of your reservation.

Changes and cancellation
Any change or cancellation of the hotel reservation must be sent in writing to MiCodmc (by email). Please note that hotels will not accept any changes or cancellations directly. In case of cancellation, MiCodmc will apply the following cancellation policy:
- Before 3 June, 2017: no charge. MiCodmc will refund the total amount already paid for the room.
