Official Hotels
The Conference venue of ICUT 2009 is the campus of Kyushu Sangyo University. So the ICUT 2009 organizing committee decided not to designate official hotels for the Conference.
FYI, the Conference Banquet will be held in the Hotel Nikko Fukuoka on December 21, 2009.
Now Hotel Nikko Fukuoka is providing dicounted rates for the ICUT 2009 participants. Please visit the following websites for the Hotel reservation:

Hakata Station
Hakata Station (博多駅, Hakata-eki) is the main railway terminal of the city of Fukuoka, Japan. It is the largest and busiest station on Kyūshū, and is a gateway to other cities in Kyūshū for travellers from Honshū. The Sanyō Shinkansen from Osaka ends at this station. It is located in Hakata-ku. The station is currently being rebuilt with the main building having been torn down and a new, larger station building as well as office buildings and new platforms under construction. The Hakata station reconstruction project is scheduled to be completed by 2011. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
