The hotel sits steps from Lake Thun and offers everything we need in one place: a panoramic plenary hall, a modern seminar room for breakouts and workshops, on-site dining for breaks, lunches, and the networking dinner, and rooms with lake or mountain views. Coffee breaks happen with a view of the alps.
Plenary and seminar rooms
Dining and networking
The hotel hosts coffee breaks, lunches, and the networking dinner on-site. The main dining hall opens onto the gardens and lake.
Accommodation
Conference rates at Hotel Seaside will be available to registered attendees. Booking instructions and the rate code will be posted once registration opens (September 2026). If the on-site block fills, Spiez has several walking-distance hotels and B&Bs we can recommend.

About Spiez
Spiez sits on the southern shore of Lake Thun. The town is compact and walkable, with views of the surrounding alps and a medieval castle on the lakefront. The Bernese Oberland railways connect to nearby hikes and excursions — Niesen, Stockhorn, Interlaken — for anyone extending their stay.
