Booking schedule

A number of rooms in different categories have been booked at attractive rates for the congress. All hotels are located close to each other as this is more convenient for transport, shopping, sightseeing and dining.
To secure accommodation of your choice, you should register as early as possible. Rates quoted are per room per night and include accommodation, buffet breakfast, hotel service charge and value added tax (VAT). All hotel reservations, especially after 31 March 2011 (early registration deadline), will be subject to availability.
There will be no organised bus transportation since most of the hotels are located within walking distance from the congress venue Finlandia Hall.

Hotel deposit
A hotel deposit of one night should be paid in advance together with the congress registration fees. The hotel deposit will be deducted from the total cost of accommodation. The remaining hotel payment will be charged at the hotel upon check-out. The hotel deposit is non-refundable if the cancellation is made after 15 May 2011. Possible cancellations or changes to reservations should be made in writing by e-mail, telefax or airmail to the congress secretariat. Hotel bookings should be made through the congress secretariat in order to benefit from the special rates.

General conditions
The hotel reservation will be completed based on request which, however, will be subject to availability. Confirmation for hotel accommodation will be included in the confirmation letter confirming the participation for the congress. No hotel vouchers will be needed since the congress secretariat will transfer the hotel deposit amounts to each hotel and the deposit amounts will be deducted from the remaining hotel invoice to be paid at the hotel during the congress.
Participants are requested to pay their personal expenses directly to the hotel at latest when checking out. Please indicate on the registration form if arrival at the hotel is scheduled after 18:00 so the congress secretariat can inform the hotel about your late arrival. The regular check-out time is 12:00.

Inquiries
For hotel accommodation inquiries and group bookings please contact the conference secretariat CONGREX by e-mail (escap2011@congrex.fi).
