You can find hotels via common sites such as booking.com easily. Unless you have a good budget (100 euro per night or more), it's advised to not choose a hotel within the canal area - and certainly not in the old city heart or close to the train station. Find a hotel outside the canal area, on cycling distance or one that has a good tram/metro connection to Rokin, the closest station to the venue. Bicycle rentals are everywhere.
