It has been brought to our attention that attendees of this conference have been approached by US group wholesalers, offering reduced group rates for the Fairmont Empress in Victoria. Please do not book your accommodation through them. They charge very high cancellation and change fees, and the rooms they book do not count toward the group rate, which could result in COS being liable for attrition charges.
