MICCAI 2005
8th International Conference on Medical Image
Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention



Venue: Riviera Resort
In 2005 the meeting will be held for the first time in the Western United States, at the Riviera Resort in Palm Springs, California, one of the oldest hotels in Palm Springs with a rich local history.

The Riviera offers 476 spacious guest rooms and suites. Situated on 24 acres, the rooms are arranged in eight low-rise resort buildings that offer abundant views of the beautiful landscaping and San Jacinto Mountains. Many of the rooms have outdoor patios that allow our guests to enjoy the perfect desert weather.

All of our guest rooms feature oversized beds, individually controlled central air conditioning and heating units, in-room coffee makers, small refrigerators, in-room irons and ironing boards, cable, color TVs with in-room movies, lighted make-up mirrors, and multi-line phones with dataports.

Miscalleneous items:

Pay Phones:  Due to the increased usage of cell phones, the phone company has removed many pay telephones throughout the hotel.  The hotel's gift shop sells phone cards and  there is a small market across the street that also sells phone cards. 

Shuttle service:  There is a bank of hotel phones just before the baggage claim area at the Palm Springs Airport.  The attendees just need to pick up the Riviera phone and it rings at the hotel.  The operator will then dispatch a bellman in a 9 passenger van to pick up the attendee(s).  The airport is under 10 minutes to the hotel and the shuttle is complimentary.
