All of the above rates are only available by booking directly with the Hotel using the reservation forms provided in this website so that you are identified as an ascilite delegate. As room blockings are limited, you are advised to book your accommodation at your earliest convenience especially when December is a peak period in Singapore and most visitors would make advance reservations to avoid disappointment.
All delegates are responsible for paying their account upon arrival at Hotel. Delegates will be asked to supply a credit card when registering, which will be used to secure bookings. Should a charge-back to a company account be required, credit arrangements must be pre-arranged with the Hotel concerned. Hotel will advise if the maximum number of rooms blocked by ascilite delegates has been exceeded (based on a first-come-first-serve basis) and thereafer room rates will revert back to the standard rates. Please note that rates are quoted in Singapore Dollars and maybe subject to a 10% service charge, prevailing Goods and Services Tax (GST) and 1% Cess.
