Accommodation

We have secured a selection of rooms at special rates (see below for how to book at these rates) at Holiday Inn Wellington, just 200 metres from the conference venue, for the period of LabPhon11 and IGALA5. The rates – in NZ$ – are as follows (they increase towards the end of the week because there is an international rugby match in Wellington - NZ vs South Africa for those who want to know - on 5th July). The rates are for King / Twin rooms for one or 2 persons (i.e. delegates might consider sharing), with the possibility of some complimentary upgrades to harbour view and balcony rooms.

Sunday 29th June	$175.00
Monday 30th June	$229.00
Tuesday 1st July	$229.00
Wednesday 2nd July	$229.00
Thursday 3rd July	$229.00
Friday 4th July	$249.00
Saturday 5th July	$249.00

To secure these rates, you will need to book no later than 90 days prior to the dates required (i.e. by 31st March for LabPhon11 and by 3rd April for IGALA5). When you book, be sure to cite block code number VU6. If you are based in NZ, there is a booking line on 0800 801 111. In Australia you can use 0800 154 181. The direct line for the hotel is +64 4 4998686. But by far the easiest way to book is by email to groups@holidayinnwellington.co.nz, putting the short conference title (LabPhon11 or IGALA5, as appropriate) in the subject line. Copy and paste the following into the body of your email, filling in the blanks. The hotel will reply within 24 hours confirming rates and giving payment options.
