Information And Policies
RESERVATION DEPOSIT
• The room leader must pay a deposit of the first night’s room and tax when making a
room reservation. It may not be divided and charged to your roommates at that time.
• The deposit must be paid to Experient using a single source (credit card, check, etc.).
The room leader is responsible for collecting shares for the deposit from other occupants of
the room after the reservation is made. Please note that should the number of roommates
change and any credit coming back to the room leader, it is the room leader’s responsibility to
collect those additional monies from their roommates.
• Should any changes to a reservation take place, either with the room leader or other occupants,
it’s the responsibility of the room leader and roommates to work out financial arrangements.
• Deposits may be paid by Credit Card (American Express®, Discover®, MasterCard®, or Visa®) or personal check.
• Credit Cards will be billed immediately.
• Checks must be made payable to Experient. Mail your payment with the completed housing form, located on
Consultant’s Corner, by Friday, June 12, 2009. All checks must be made payable to Experient in U.S. funds drawn
on a U.S. bank. No wire transfers will be accepted. Your reservation is not confirmed until your check is processed.
• All deposits become non-refundable for reservations after June 14, 2009, 11:59PM CST, should an emergency
arise after June 14, 2009 contact [email protected].
NOTE: Your reservation will not be confirmed until payment has been processed.
RESERVING HOTEL ROOM
• To reserve a room, go to Consultant’s Corner, and follow the Consultants and National Conference
menu to National Conference 2009. When you select the National Conference housing link, you’ll
be re-directed to the National Conference 2009 housing site hosted by Experient.
• Please note, when you enter the housing Web site, the first page will be the Housing Guidelines. In order
to advance to the reservation page you will need to mark an X in the box showing that you’ve read and
acknowledged the housing reservation process and guidelines.
• Read the information carefully and follow the on-screen directions.
• Once the name and Consultant number have been verified you’ll be allowed into the reservation system.
This process may take a few moments. Please do not hit the refresh button.
• If you’ve already made a reservation, the system will direct you to your existing reservation.
• When adding your roommates, the room leader will need to enter the first name, last name
and Consultant number for each person sharing the room. All Consultant numbers will be verified.
• The room leader will be the only person on the reservation who may:
• Change the date of arrival or departure
• Cancel the reservation in its entirety
• Roommates have the ability to view the reservation and may cancel only their own names from the reservation.
• Once a roommate cancels a reservation, an e-mail will be forwarded to the room leader advising of the
cancellation. The roommate is then free to become a room leader in a new reservation or a roommate in another
reservation, if desired.
• You may make changes or cancel your reservation online before June 14, 2009, 11:59 p.m. CDT.
Any cancellations after June 14 are subject to one night’s room and tax.
• Only after June 22, 2009, should you contact the hotel directly, if you need to make any changes.
Though you may make changes to your reservation, cancellations after June 14, 2009, even if

personal checking account. The Hilton and Sheraton Hotel requires a $50 deposit for incidentals each day of your
stay. This deposit will be applied by the hotel to your individual room folio for incidental charges incurred during
your stay. If there are no incidental charges on your individual room folio the unused deposit will be credited back
to your bank and applied back to your debit card/checking account. This credit process with your local bank takes
approximately 7 - 10 business days to appear on your debit card.
