I need to stay the Tuesday night before the conference. Is this possible? 

Yes this is possible. We have arranged a special rate for HELOA members to stay the night before the conference on Tuesday 13th January at the Crowne Plaza Stratford upon Avon. The cost is £110 (including VAT) for bed and breakfast. 

You can book this as part of your National Conference booking by selecting ‘Full delegate package with Tuesday night accommodation’ from the conference attendance options. You do not need to book directly with the hotel.  

I wish to stay at Crowne Plaza Stratford upon Avon after the conference. Is this possible? 

Yes, delegates will need to book this themselves via the hotel website or other booking sites. While at the hotel for the conference, inform reception that you have booked for the additional night(s) and they can link your rooms. 

I see the hotel has a spa, can I book a treatment? 

Crowne Plaza Stratford upon Avon recommends that if you wish to book a spa visit during your weekend stay that you do this as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

Delegates would be able to book a spa treatment for during downtime. Spa packages would need to be booked separately by delegates, and although spa packages will most likely not fit in with the conference programmes, they may provide a good option for anyone extending their stay.

There are also leisure facilities in the hotel itself that full delegates are able to use. This includes a gym and pool.
