How much is the accommodation at The Malcolm Hotel? 

We are pleased to offer you discounted room rates! Cost ranges from $225 - $265 CAD per night depending on your room selection and must be booked separately from your conference pass using discount code: 2404NORTH. Book your hotel here. 

In previous years, hotel bookings were included in our ticket - why the change?

With the move in venue to the Malcolm Hotel, there are a variety of room offerings, making it impossible to include a standard room in every ticket. We think the change is positive as it gives guests the opportunity to pick a room that suits their needs.

Yes, guestroom rates will be extended to cover April 18th to April 28th, subject to guest room availability.
