The number of guests allowed on any reservation is limited by the maximum number of guests allowed in the room type chosen. Conventions Special rates are commonly negotiated when a convention or seminar is held at a particular Luxury Collection property. These rates are negotiated directly with the hotel by the company or association hosting the conference, and are not accessible through Apollo/Galileo. In most cases, the hotel agrees to hold a certain number of rooms at the negotiated rate. Once this block of rooms is sold out, additional rooms may be sold by the hotel at Rack Rates. Reservations at the convention rate may be available thru the Luxury Collection reservation center 1-800-325-3589 unless bookings must be made by contacting the property direct or thru a local housing bureau. **Please Note Most Convention Rates Are Non-Commissionable** Reservations ** S H O U L D N O T ** be booked thru Apollo/ Galileo with a request in the LC/-field for the hotel to change the reservation to the convention rate.
