If you need hotel information, please contact me. Note that some of the hotels have reductions for guests of the university. To take advantage of these mention the workshop and the university when booking.
My recommendation is the Hotel Mercure (Niederwall 31-35, 33602 Bielefeld, fon: +49 521 5253 0, fax: +49 521 5253 444), which has university rates of DM 115,- for a single, and offers the best connections of public transport, besides being located downtown.
