Reservations
FIDIC 2008 Québec participants are asked to reserve hotel accommodation directly with a hotel. To obtain the conference promotion rates, a participant will generally need to fax or email a completed booking form (available online), one per participant, to the hotel of your choice.

Deposit guarantee
Please check the terms and conditions of reservations. In some cases a refundable deposit (generally of one night) is required (but is sometimes not mandatory and may not apply). Payment of any one night one-night refundable deposit guarantee must be completed by the dates indicated above to profit from any special conference promotion rate and to reserve accommodation. This should be paid by credit card by giving card details on the booking form. Some hotels may accept payment of the deposit by bank transfer, but usually they will require payment for the full amount of the accommodation. In exceptional cases, and upon request, payment of the deposit can possibly be made by bank transfer. In this case, please fax your booking form to FIDIC (+41-22-799 49 01) and arrange for a bank transfer to FIDIC equivalent to the full accommodation plus a Euro 20 fee to cover bank charges (FIDIC will inform the participant of the amount that must be transferred.
