Presentations

We will be announcing the full conference schedule in due course. Please stay tuned to the Conference news page:

www.TheAMT.com/conference/

Refreshments, Lunch and Breaks

There will be refreshments of Tea, Coffee, Water (hot & cold) and Biscuits in the 30 minute morning and afternoon breaks.

There is also a lunch break of 1 hour 30 minutes each day. You can either bring a packed-lunch or you may purchase food from:

• Hotel Bar (downstairs). The bar menu contains a number of dishes catering for all tastes, however a top-tip is to take advantage of the £5.95 special-offers which aren't on the printed menu. In previous years, this has included: Fish & Chips, Burger & Chips and Steak & Chips;
• Hotel Restaurant (upstairs);
• Traditional English Pub a few minutes walk away which serves excellent food. There is often a good number of delegates who have attended previous conferences that enjoy visiting this pub for lunch, whilst also stretching their legs. If you'd like directions, contact a member of the conference staff;

Tip: At EmoTrance 2011, it was cheaper to book into the hotel restaurant at reception rather than in the restaurant itself. There was also special offers at the bar not mentioned in the menu so please ask staff for assistance

Hotel and Accommodation

Introducing the Britannia Gatwick London Europa Hotel

The hotel always offers a warm welcome to delegates no matter whether they are coming from London, the rest of the UK or International via Gatwick International Airport nearby. We use this hotel for conferences time and time again because they successfully combine good value-for-money with excellent rail/road/airport links.

Booking Hotel Rooms

Accommodation is booked through us for your convenience and the cost including breakfast is:

• £45.00/night (double room - 1 person)
• £55.00/night (double room - 2 people)
• £55.00/night (twin room - 2 people)

To book hotel rooms:

• Online: Visit the registration page. If you've already booked your conference ticket then you'll need to untick 'AMT12 2012 Conference' because this is selected by default.
• By Phone: Call the AMT office on: +44 (0)1323 700 800

If you need to change your hotel room booking then contact us using the phone number above.

Note: If you book your hotel rooms through someone else then on check-in please do not tell reception that you are with the conference. This will delay and confuse reception staff because they will go through all the names on our group booking and panic when yours does not appear.

Check-In/Out Times

If you have booked a Hotel Room through us you will be able to check in to your room at 2pm on the day. Check-out time is 11.00am.

Left Luggage

Delegates who have checked-out of their hotel room on a day of the conference or pre/post training days, may store their luggage at their own risk in the conference training hall, provided it does not get in the way and is not a safety risk. The hotel does offer a ‘left luggage’ facility if you are asked to move your luggage by us or a member of the hotel staff.

Swimming Pool, Hot-Tub, Sauna and Gym

Relaxing in the hot-tub and taking advantage of the hotels leisure facilities is highly recommended by conference staff. There is a nominal charge (~£10 / week or ~£4.00 / day) and you buy your pass at the hotel reception.

Remember to pack a swimming costume.
