With InnoTrans fast approaching from 24-27 September 2024, many accommodation options are already being booked up around the Messe Berlin. If you have not already done so, it is therefore highly recommended to reserve your hotel.
The scale and popularity of the event can lead to tiring days for both visitors and exhibitors. Finding the right place to stay can thus be a vital element to success, ensuring that you can comfortably rest between the jam-packed days.
As a result, hotels within walking distance can be an attractive option for many companies, and it is no surprise that the Ibis Berlin Messe, which is just a 5-minute walk from the venue is already sold out for the InnoTrans dates.
However, staying elsewhere within a short commute from the Berlin Messe allows attendees to enjoy Berlin’s public transport options. Arguably, riding the bus or the metro to the event sets the scene for a productive day exploring the ideas and products showcased for the industry’s future.
The closest S-Bahn stations to the venue are Messe Nord/ICC and Messe Süd. Messe Nord is served by lines S41/S42 and S46, while Messe Süd is served by lines S3 and S9. Booking accommodation that is also close to a stop on one of these lines can therefore lead to a smoother more relaxing journey than having to change lines.
Furthermore, bus lines 139, 143, 218, M49 and X34 all serve the Messe Berlin, providing multiple options for arriving at the exhibition grounds.
Before booking a hotel, it is recommended to check your travel options to and from the event on a platform such as Google Maps or CityMapper to ensure the journey is feasible before and after the long days.
For choosing a hotel, InnoTrans has partnered with both visitBerlin and HRS hotel booking to help provide suitable options. It is also worth exploring options on trusted sites such as Booking.com and Expedia to compare options and prices.
Alternatively, Airbnb also offers a multitude of options for groups of varying sizes, including more economical prices that can provide you with more space than a conventional hotel. However, if you do opt for this option or book a hotel without breakfast, be sure to schedule some time to stock up on food as part of your arrival plan so that you’re not starting a busy at the event on an empty stomach!
Regardless of your priorities, taking some time to choose the ideal accommodation for you and your team should be a key consideration to help get the most out of InnoTrans 2024.
