*Sharing rooms – Sharing rooms does not result in any increase in tariff and is an effective means of reducing the cost of attending the meeting. Please indicate on your registration the room style you require and, if known, the names of other delegates with whom you wish to share.
*Extending your stay - the venues will offer the conference rate to delegates arriving early or staying on after the conference. Simply indicate your arrival and departure dates on your registration. Changes to your booking – should always be done through the conference secretariat, NOT the Hotel itself.
*Check-in times – rooms are not guaranteed available until 2:00pm on each day though can be made available earlier in the day at the discretion of the Hotel itself. If you wish to ensure an early check-in, you should reserve the room for the previous night.
