Moana hotel where the shuttle bus to the Honolulu harbor leaves. The bus
will stop at Ambassador hotel waikiki on the way to the harbor. The map
of Ala Moana and Ambassador hotel is here. You can choose a hotel which is convenient for you but Ala Moana hotel
is recommended because the symposium staff will guide you to the hotel.
If you choose Ambassador hotel waikiki, you need to go there by yourself.
The leaving time for each hotel will be announced on site.
When you come back from the harbor to the hotel after the cruising, the shuttle bus will take you to waikiki area and stop at some hotels. The hotel map where the shuttle bus will stop is here. The bus will stop in numerical order in the map. You can get off the
bus at the hotel near yours. If your hotel is so far from these hotels,
your hotel can be added to the stop list only if your hotel is in waikiki
area. Please contact the symposium secretariat isabmec2014'at'abmech.org (please change 'at' into @.) promptly if you want to add your hotel. If
your hotel is outside the waikiki area, the bus cannot take you to the
hotel. Please find the way to get to your hotel from the listed hotels
for yourself.
