Warning: It is a common scam for participants to be contacted by people claiming to be the Symposium Hotel.  We do not share your contact information with the hotel so there is no way the hotel can contact you without you first getting in touch with them.  Please be vigilant!

Symposium Hotel – the Slieve Russell Hotel

We encourage all Symposium participants to stay at the meeting venue, the Slieve Russell Hotel.  A very good rate has been negotiated with the Hotel and, because the meeting is in a rural location, other nearby accommodation options are limited.

We have reserved a block booking of 200 bedrooms in the Slieve Russell Hotel from Sunday 8th May 2022 to Friday 13nd May 2022 (5 nights). The agreed Bed & Breakfast rate per night is €90.00 single occupancy or €55.00 per person sharing. When you register for the Symposium you will receive a promotional code that unlocks these rates.

Children aged 3 and under are free, and children aged 4-16 staying in the same room as their parents are charged at €20 per night B&B.

All accommodation bookings must be made ONLINE – the hotel will not be accepting reservations via telephone or email.
