Forum Fest 2015 Melbourne

[Mama Fergie]

Thanks Chookie and everyone else for taking the time to organise this.
As there is a 7 day cancellation in place please add me to the list. Hopefully I will make it but will know for certain nearer the time.
At this stage I would like to arrive on the Thursday and fly home on the Monday.

Sorry I haven't been on the forum recently but lots going on here over  the last couple of months. Hopefully things will settle down soon.
I miss you all

Thank you for choosing the Mercure Welcome Hotel and Swanston Hotel for your group accommodation. I have now set up your special code which is THERMOMIX15.
 
Guests will need to quote this code to receive the 5% discount off our best available rate at the time of booking. This special rate will have a cancellation policy of 7 days prior to arrival, if anyone needs to cancel they will be able to do this up until 6 pm 7 days before they are due to arrive without any charge. Any cancellations received after this date will incur a charge of the first nights’ accommodation per room. To book their reservations guests will be required to provide valid credit card details as a guarantee, they will not need to pay for their accommodation until they arrive at the hotel.
 
This discount is available at both the Mercure Welcome Hotel (3.5 stars) and the Swanston Hotel, Grand Mercure (4.5 stars) on all room types. If they wish to add breakfast, we can do this on booking at the discounted rate of $18 per person, per day. This is a special pre-booked rate, if they would prefer to wait and decide on the day breakfast is $25.
 
Please note that rooms and rates are subject to availability at the time of booking. Our rates are also dynamic which means they are constantly changing therefore not everyone will receive the same rates.
 
Bookings can be made via email or phone the details of which are as follows:

I've just rung Sarah and booked my room at the Swanston.  Arriving Thursday 22nd October, departing Monday 26th. Not going far, will be staying with DD & SIL for 2 nights after the FF.   Bed and breakfast booked, apparently I was the first to book.  

[cookie1]

Thank you both. I will do my booking today or tomorrow. I will be at the Swanston with breakfast. In Thursday and out Monday.
Judy the hotels are both on the same site, just one to the left of reception and one to the right. However the rooms are bigger at the Swanston and I feel quieter as a lot of bus tours stay at the Welcome.

[achookwoman]

Thanks Judy for posting Sarah's reply.
We are booked for the F, S, S nights and 3 breakfasts.

I'm just about to book I was thinking of coming up Friday morning be there by 10 if that suits the day's activities , and leave late Sunday afternoon , has anything been planned yet for what we may do and do you think these times will suit ?

[judydawn]

Nothing has been planned for Friday yet Brenda as some people will still be finding their way to Melbourne.  Those times sound OK to me though.

Those who are booking, please let us know which hotel you choose and if you're booking for breakfast.  I'm currently reworking and updating the details on page 1 so it will be easier for everyone to know what's happening.  Back to the job LOL.
