8 Hotel Brands Offering Meeting Deals

Friday, April 3, 2009 by Sarah Larkins
Stack of MoneyIt seems like each week brings more hotel deals for meeting planners. In fact, it's getting hard to keep track! So I've compiled a list of promotions at eight top hotel brands that will go a long way to help you save on your meetings and events.

Fairmont Hotels & Resorts

Fairmont's Sweet Meeting Deal includes a 10 percent credit applied against the master account for functions booked and held by June 30, 2010. Groups with a minimum of 10 room nights can take advantage of the offer; the 10 percent credit is based on actualized room revenue only.

Fairmont Hotels & Resorts are also offering another promotion: the Meetings That Matter program. Available for planners booking a new meeting for 2009 for a minimum of 50 room nights, the program lets you use 10 percent of room revenue generated by booking to be used as credit towards another meeting of equal or greater size and value, or to be donated to a charitable organization of your choice.

Finally, don't forget the deals available at individual properties. At Fairmont Chicago, groups that book at least 25 room nights by June 30, 2009 can choose from a number of cost-saving options, such as complimentary Internet access or a 20 percent discount on audio-visual services. Check out the full details here.
