Hotel Reservation and Notices

1. Please do the hotel reservation as soon as possible by filling the Hotel Reservation Form [English] [中文版].

2. Please send your reservation form to Dr. Pin Liu (GuangzhouConf2018@gmail.com). Once you get a confirmation email from Dr.Pin Liu, then your reservation is complete. If you do not get a confirmation in 3 days, please resend your reservation form.

3. Once you have made the hotel reservation, we may not be able to accept any change for another type of hotel reservation.

4. Due to the fact that the China Import and Export Fair, also called the Conton Fair, will start on October 13, 2018 and many people will live in Guangdong Hotel one or two days before the Fair this year, our conference organizing committee have decided to close all our conference activities around 11:30am on October 11, 2018, in order to avoid any possible hotel problem. Accordingly, we will start to have some conference activities including workshops and tutorials on October 8, and we will have the Opening Ceremony for the Main Conferences and some Keynote Sessions in the morning of October 9. Most of our conference activities will be held during October 8-10 and only a little will be held in the morning of October 11. Please make sure to check out at Guangdong Hotel before 1:30pm on October 11, 2018 in order to avoid any possible hotel problem. Sorry we cannot book a room for you exceeding this datetime (1:30pm October 11, 2018) due to the Conton Fair thereafter. If you want to stay in Guangzhou exceeding this special datetime, you need to make a hotel reservation in advance by yourself in some other way for Guangdong Hotel or some other hotel. Notice that the room rate on or after this special datetime will be much higher than this special conference room rate. So, please make sure to book a hotel as early as possible if you want to get a relatively low room rate on or after this special datetime (1:30pm October 11, 2018). Sorry for this inconvenience caused.

5. If you do not make hotel reservation before August 31, 2018, you may not be able to use the special rate for the conference when you arrive at the hotel. In the worst case, you can not live in the conference hotel if already fully booked.
