Accommodation in Brisbane

Discounted accommodation rates have been negotiated for IGC delegates at an extensive range of hotels and accommodation establishments in central Brisbane. The selection of hotels, room types and rates are shown in the tables on the previous pages.

You can book your accommodation when you register for the Congress.

There is heavy demand for accommodation in Brisbane and delegates are urged to book accommodation as soon as possible. Delegates are cautioned against expecting lower rates to be available for late bookings on internet accommodation sites. Due to demand for accommodation in Brisbane, rates on such sites are often higher, particularly for rooms mid-week and availability is very limited.
