Where to Stay

The following are some accommodations we recommend in the city. We don't know of good accommodation near the UBC campus, so if you do please add it to the wiki.

* Our hotel of choice is the Hampton Inn & Suites. We're told that all rooms have free Internet access, and there's wifi in the hotel's common areas. Price
$139 / night. Please quote the "Northern Voice conference" when booking. We have set up conference pricing with the hotel, so when you book make sure you mention the Northern Voice conference - this rate is only available by calling the hotel directly.

We have a hold on 10 rooms for the nights of Feb. 21, 22 and 23. Cutoff for this guaranteed inventory is Jan. 29. After that, conference goers can still get the special conference rate of $139 but the inventory is not guaranteed.

* Another popular accommodation choice was the YWCA hotel, just around the corner from the Hampton. Here's a map.

* The Blue Horizon Hotel (1225 Robson Street - here's a map). We've stayed there before and liked it. Website says free high-speed internet access in all rooms.

* The Plaza 500 is on the corner of Cambie St and 12th Avenue. People who've stayed there seem to like it. The hotel website has more information.
