Accommodation

Conference Accommodation Bookings

Accommodation will be held at the following hotels. To access the conference rates, accommodation must be booked as part of your conference registration. We recommend you book at least 60 days prior to the conference as hotels require unsold rooms to be released at 90, 60 and 30 days prior. 

Within 30 days, you will need to contact all hotels directly to book accommodation, including checking availability and if the conference rates are still available.

Accommodation Bookings 

Conference attendees can book accommodation in our block bookings when registering for the conference. 

If you have already registered, your confirmation email will include a link to add an accommodation booking. Accommodation can only be booked by registered attendees. 

Booking Amendments 

All booking amendments need to be received in writing and emailed to mail@conferencedesign.com.au.

Please check the individual cancellation policies listed with each hotel. Cancellations must be received in writing and emailed to mail@conferencedesign.com.au.  

Accommodation Release – 30 Days 

Accommodation will be held until 30 days prior to the conference when all unsold rooms will be released. After this date, you will need to contact the hotels directly to see if the conference rates are still available and whether there is any availability.
