Accommodation Cancellations
No accommodation payments will be refunded on or after Friday 25 April, 2025
Delegates who confirm attendance by paying a minimum of the first night and do not advise of cancellation before Friday 25 April, 2025 the ‘no show’ rate, as penalised by the hotel, will be charged to you and your payment will not be refunded. This charge is calculated as the room rate per night multiplied by the dates booked and secured. Please ensure that accommodation dates are correct at time of booking and before Friday 25 April, 2025 if any changes are required.
Change of booking
Any change in booking must be made in writing to the Conference Secretariat and NOT directly to the hotel before Friday 25 April, 2025. Any changes received after Friday 25 April, 2025 will be at the hotels discretion and based on availability.
Early arrival
As check in at most hotels is not until 1400, it is possible that your room may not be ready for immediate occupation on your early arrival. Whilst hotels will do everything possible to accommodate early arrivals, if you wish to be guaranteed immediate occupation you can pay an extra day’s tariff for the night before you are due to arrive. If you wish to take this precaution, please advise the Conference Secretariat on the registration form so we can notify the hotel that your room is required early.
No Show
In the event of a “No Show” on the date of arrival, full cancellation penalties apply to all nights of the stay.
