Accommodation
All conference attendees (except plenary speakers) are required to book and pay directly with the accommodation vendors in Nelson.
We recommend you book your accommodation early as February is peak tourism season and there is a public holiday (Waitangi day on Wed 6 Feb) during the conference. If you are a plenary speaker, you will be booked into the Rutherford Hotel. Confirmation and your booking number will be sent to you privately.
This is the venue where the conference will be held. The rate is $210 per night for room only including taxes. To book, you need to email -
reservations@rutherfordhotel.co.nz or ring +64 3 548 2299 / if in NZ 0800 437 227. Please ensure you give the hotel this
"PROMO CODE 290952" Payment is required when you book and a credit card hold is required during the event period in case you use other facilities such as meals, laundry, mini bar etc.
We recommend you book early as there are only a limited number of rooms.
