Travel Advice - Hotels


The Congress has secured rooms at special rates at a number of hotels in close proximity to the Melbourne Exhibition and Convention Centre.  A list of these is provided below.

When booking for the Congress through the online system you will be required to pre-pay your accommodation.  Please note, hotel booking policies are very restrictive at these special rates. If you have to cancel or alter a booking please contact the Congress secretariat as soon as possible. Cancellations made within 30 days of arrival may incur a charge of the cost of the first night’s accommodation.

Check in time for each hotel is 2pm. Should you require an early check-in, you should reserve the room for the previous night.

All rates are quoted per room per night and do not include breakfast unless specified. Apartment rates are quoted on a minimum of a 2 night booking and do not include breakfast.

All prices are quoted in Australian Dollars. 

Please refer to the interactive map that will show you distance and direction from the hotels to the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.

* These hotels have participated in the City of Melbourne's Savings in the City program - an innovative environmental program to help city hotels cut energy, water and waste consumption. The total rating includes recognition for water, waste and energy management. The higher the level, the better the hotel is performing.
