Accommodations and Local Shuttle Services

Stanford Guest House

This comfortable and convenient housing structure is located on SLAC’s campus and is just a quick walk away to the workshop. Guests will have access to in-room, high-speed Internet access, a fitness center, a 24-hour reception desk, laundry facilities, free parking, complimentary tea and coffee, and a 24-hour gift shop.

The Stanford Guest House offers single as well as shared rooms, but all rooms have their own bathroom, and at very reasonable rates. All rooms are non-smoking only. Please book early using their online-reservation form. Please mention "SSI" for SLAC rate.

SLAC's Linear Café is located adjacent to the Guest House and is available for breakfast and lunch weekdays. On weekends, we serve complimentary bagels, muffins, juice, and coffee in our first floor lounge. Also, many dining facilities are available on campus; for information, visit Stanford Dining. A complimentary campus-wide shuttle service is available, see below.


Stanford Campus Housing

Stanford Conference Services provides studio apartments and residence hall rooms, on a space available basis, for eligible 2009 summer campus visitors (age 18 and over) who will be studying, attending a conference, participating in a workshop or coming to Stanford for some other academic purpose. Housing is available in undergraduate and graduate residences that are close to the center of campus. Stanford campus housing is in great demand during the summer. We urge you to sign up as soon as possible to secure campus housing.

Please visit Stanford Conference Services and email the Housing Coordinator with questions.

Marguerite Shuttle

The Marguerite is Stanford University's complimentary public shuttle system which traverses the campus Monday through Friday all year (except University holidays). The SLAC line operates between SLAC (with a stop at the entrance to the Guest House) and the Stanford campus, and is available from 7:48 a.m. to 8:28 p.m., approximately every 20 minutes.

The complimentary Stanford Guest House shuttle is also available evenings and weekends when the Marguerite is not.
