Deposit

Rooms are being held by the Meeting Managers on behalf of the delegates until 16 September 2009. All hotel accommodation bookings must be accompanied by a minimum one night’s room rate or credit card details in order to secure a reservation. The Meeting Managers will accept accommodation deposits up until 16 September 2009 and will settle the deposit with the hotel. Delegates must settle the balance of their account with the hotel concerned upon check out.

Late bookings can be made through the Meeting Managers after 16 September 2009 but are subject to availability and credit card details are required to secure the reservation. One night’s room rate will be deducted from the supplied card, by the hotel, if the reservation is cancelled or the delegate fails to arrive on the specified date.

How to book Accommodation

To book, complete either the online registration form or Section C of the hard copy registration form. The Meeting Managers will forward your contact details, reservation and deposit or credit card details to the hotel of your choice.

Change of Booking

Any change to a reservation must be notified to the Meeting Managers and not directly to the hotel. Please note that any changes should be made to the Meeting Managers by 2 October 2009. Cancellations must be made in writing.

Late Arrivals

Please indicate when you register, or notify the Meeting Managers in writing if you will arrive at your hotel after 1800 hours, failure to do so may mean that your room will be released.

Arrival Time

Many international flights arrive into Australia in the early morning. For most hotels, Check-in time is 2.00pm and Check-out time is 11.00am. Should you wish to guarantee check-in before 2.00pm you will need to pre-book, and pay for the previous night. If you wish to guarantee a late checkout you will need to book for the next night. These additional nights can be booked at the time of making your reservation. If required please indicate on your registration form.

Hotel Check in Procedures

As per standard hotel policies and procedures delegates will be required to provide a credit card or full cash payment upon check in. This is to cover any incidental charges incurred during your stay and all remaining unpaid room nights, regardless if your booking was guaranteed by a deposit to secure your booking.

The hotel will hold on your credit card, until point of check out, all unpaid accommodation nights reserved plus a daily amount for incidental charges. If you will be settling your accommodation account by cash you will be asked to pre pay for your accommodation in full plus a cash deposit for incidentals. Should you not utilize any incidentals during your stay the cash deposit, for incidentals only, will be refunded to you by the hotel upon check out.

Please note the daily incidental charge may vary across the listed hotels. Should you wish to confirm the amount that will be held against your card prior to check in, please contact the hotel directly.

Accommodation Refunds

The deposit is non-refundable at 16 September 2009 and will be forfeited if you do not arrive on the date for which you have booked. Cancellations must be made in writing.
