Please note that the cancellation policy for the Hilton Prague is more strict than normal. You can cancel your reservation without penalty until 21 days prior to check-in/arrival date. In the case of cancellation 21-14 days prior to check-in, the hotel will charge three room nights at the group rate as a cancellation fee. In the event of a cancellation less than 14 days prior to the event or scheduled check in, the hotel retains the right to charge the full length of stay as reserved as a cancellation fee. However, if the hotel is fully booked on the dates of stay they may not charge a cancellation fee for those nights.

If you prefer to stay at a different hotel, there are numerous options in the general area.


# T-shirts & Social Event

Unfortunately there will be no complimentary meeting t-shirts or social event offered for IETF 118. These are two of the many attendee benefits provided by a meeting host, which we do not have for the upcoming meeting.
