IEEE 802 Plenary Session Special Group Hotel Rates:  Please book as soon as
possible for best selection !

IEEE 802 has made a special arrangement with Manotel Group's 6 business
class hotels in downtown Geneva to provide rooms with special rates for IEEE
802 Plenary Session attendees.  Each Manotel hotel provides guaranteed
reservations via major credit card on a special IEEE-802 webpage with
NO-penalty for reservation cancellation requests received more than 7-days
(?168 hours) in advance of arrival date & time, free guestroom internet,
business traveler amenities, and optional breakfast and restaurant services.
They are all 4 and 3-star properties, and each has its own unique style that
allows for a variety of guest preferences.  We recommend that you visit our
website to see the different features, prices, and their convenient
locations to make your selection, and then book online as soon as possible
to ensure you get your preference.  The number of rooms available is limited
so please book early.  You can always cancel if your plans change but once
our block is sold out, no more rooms may be available.  All of the Manotel
hotels have highest customer ratings for comfort, convenience, and service.
They are a very safe choice for those not familiar with Geneva.  Please use

ITU Hotel Reservations:


ITU maintains a  <http://www.itu.int/travel/accommodations.asp> list of
hotels and residences of varied categories in or near Geneva that offer
special rates to delegates attending conferences or meetings at the ITU.
The list requires use of a standard  <http://www.itu.int/travel> booking
form.  A PDF copy of the full hotel list is available at:
<http://www.itu.int/travel/hotels.pdf> http://www.itu.int/travel/hotels.pdf.


Follow the procedure below to make a reservation for a hotel room with the
ITU special terms:

*	Delegates must reserve a room directly (i.e. not through an
intermediary such as a travel agency, airline, etc.) with their chosen hotel
from the  <http://www.itu.int/travel/accommodations.asp?lang=en> list by
phone, fax, or email.
*	They must confirm the booking by mailing or faxing this standard
<http://www.itu.int/travel/BookingForm.html> booking confirmation form,
which must provide valid credit card information to secure the hotel room
guarantee.
*	Bookings that are not guaranteed by a credit card will be held only
until 18.00 hours.
*	When checking in, delegates may be required to provide evidence that
they are attending an ITU meeting or conference (i.e. show badge or
invitation letter).
