Travel
Airports. The closest airport is in Hannover, but the large airports in Hamburg, Frankfurt (Main), and Berlin are also fairly accessible via train from Göttingen.
Train. Göttingen is well connected to most major cities in Germany via fast trains. The travel time from Frankfurt is about 2h and from Hannover less than 1h.
Local. Walking from the train station to the Mathematical Institute takes no more than 20 minutes passing through the town centre. Most hotels are in walking distance from the main building, however there is also a chance of using the buses.
