The only means of public transport in Ljubljana are city buses, see
timetable and map of lines. The fare is the same for all journeys,
SIT 230, and can be paid in cash to the driver (no change given!) or bought
in advance as a small plastic token (žeton) sold at most newspaper
stands (if you have to change the bus, this counts for two journeys!!!). Weekly or monthly tickets are not available, so if you intend to
use buses we advise you to stock up on žetons.
The good alternative to the public transport are taxis which will cost you nearly the same as the bus when driveng four people in the taxi.
By car
Use the map which is located on the bottom of the page.
By plane
Most participants will be arriving by plane to Brnik Airport, which
is located about 30 km from Ljubljana. From there you can either take a bus (Adria bus leaves every hour, however not for late-evening flights), which will take you to the main coach station (for further instructions from there see below), or a taxi, which should
cost between 3.500 and 5.000 SIT. Try to arrange a fixed price beforehand.
By train/coach The main railway and coach station (železniška/avtobusna postaja or kolodvor) is located near the centre of Ljubljana.
To get to Hotel Park: if travelling light you can try walking (10-15 minutes, see map below), or take a taxi, there is no direct (or indirect) way of getting there by public transport.
To get to Hotel M, you'll have to walk to the next bus stop at Bavarski dvor (5 min) and take bus 7,15 or 16, get off at Kino Šiška, cross the Celovška street using the subway and there it is.
For the people staying at Hotel Bit - the direction to take is Štepanjsko
naselje, buses 5, 9, 13 and 22. We're not sure exactly how many bus stops
there are, see map or ask the bus driver.
By taxi
The taxi ride from any of the hotels or from the coach station to the institute will cost you around 1000 SIT, not much more than the price of one bus ride for 3 people.
By bus
From the railway/coach station:
To get to
the collaboration meeting site (Jozef Stefan Institute) take bus nr. 9 towards Trnovo
- the bus station is next to the main coach station - and get off at Konzorcij
(2 stops), There you take bus nr. 1 (direction Mestni Log) and get off on the 5th bus stop at Jadranska . The bus stop is located in front of the side entrance of the institute.

From the bus stop at Jadranska to the registration desk and lecture hall ( see the Aerial view of the institite ):
The bus stop at Jadranska is located just in front of the Side entrance of the J.Stefan Institute, which is however closed on Sundays.
To get to the registration desk and meeting room location, enter the institute through the Main Entrance (green dots on the photo). To reach it, go back to the crossing Jadranska-Jamova and turn left. You will find the Main Entrace after 100 m walk on the left. The signs will be there as well.

Parking area inside the institute is fully occupied already early in the morning so it is wise to park near the Main Entrance.
