Hotel for the FRAM Workshop

 

Participants of the FRAM Workshop (21-22 May 2008) are advised to stay the Lord Nelson Hotel, and are advised to book early while rooms are still available. The Lord Nelson is a four-star hotel, downtown, and the closest hotel to the workshop, a pleasant 20-30 minute walk. A discount rate is available, $159 / night for a Traditional Room. Mention the "FRAM Workshop" when making your reservation. Reservations may be cancelled free of charge until 1 pm the day before arrival, so people may as well book early. The hotel offers guests free access to a business office, which is equipped with computers, powerpoint, printers, and internet access. High-speed internet is available in rooms for a small charge. The Lord Nelson faces the Halifax Public Gardens.
