Accommodation

The Secretariat has negotiated special rates with several local hotels. Room allocations will be made on a first-come, first-served basis. Delegates are free to book their accommodation directly through the hotel or over the internet, where it is possible that a lower ‘special rate’ will be advertised. The Secretariat will not be responsible for any bookings that are made through external organisations or directly with hotels.

Full payment for accommodation is required on booking and reservations will not be made without payment. Confirmation of your reservation will be sent on receipt of either the Registration and Accommodation Booking Form or your confirmed online booking along with full payment.

Changes to accommodation

Where the hotel booking has been made via the Secretariat, any changes to accommodation requirements should be directed to the Secretariat, NOT the hotel.

Rates quoted (in British Pounds GBP £) include breakfast and VAT at 17.5%, unless stated otherwise. Prices are correct at time of posting to this site. The cost of room extras, e.g. telephone bills, laundry etc, should be settled directly with the hotel on departure.

Accommodation cancellations and refunds

Payment for accommodation will be refunded in full if the Secretariat can resell the bedrooms and provided that written notice of cancellation is received. Name substitutions will be permitted at any time. Refund payments will be made after the Symposium.
