Accommodation
Simon Fraser University's spectacular main campus is located at the top of Burnaby Mountain, approximately half an hour's drive from downtown Vancouver. Participants find it most convenient to stay on campus either in the hotel guest rooms ($85.00-$105.00 per night, limited availability), townhouse units ($45.00 per person per night), or in modern dormitory accommodation ($35.00 per person per night), each with free high-speed internet access. Rates do not include the 10% hotel tax or 6% GST. Breakfasts and lunches will be available in the residence dining facility. For accompanying guests downtown Vancouver can be easily reached by bus.
SFU Guest Accommodation will hold rooms for the conference until Friday, April 27, 2007. Reservations will be accepted after that time based on availability.
