Why Stay in Our Host Hotel

  • Our group rates are the best rates at these hotels. At around US$198/night, these rates are very affordable for this city.
  • Our room block contract allows us to secure the best rate for you, but that means we must meet a minimum number of hotel rooms used.
  • You support us and future possible meeting locations by booking within our room block. 
  • Most sessions will be at the nearby convention center, about 1km walk on the street or a shorter walk underground.
  • The hotel has rooms with either a king bed or two queen beds, which makes sharing a room easy.

Booking Dates

Our meeting will open for general sessions on Wednesday afternoon, April 29, and run through Saturday evening, May 2. Workshops, tours, and other pre-conference sessions participants should arrive Monday evening, April 27, or Tuesday morning, April 28, depending on the timing of those events.

Booking Scams

Exhibitors often receive fraudulent room block offers at rates higher than our group rate. Exhibitors and any other attendee should disregard any messages they may receive from any other party. The only way to get our group rate and help us meet our room block commitment is to book through this page.
