This hotel is currently sold out. There is a possibility of having a block of rooms for the Council members at the ITC Hotel Maurya (room rate $468 USD) Sardar Patel Marg, Diplomatic Enclave, New Delhi http://www.starwoodhotels.com/sheraton/property/overview/index.html?property... This hotel, I am told, is within walking distance of the venue hotel, but there will also be transportation from the hotels to the venue each day. 'Le Méridien' (room rate $379 USD) 8, Windsor Palace, Janpath New Delhi 110001 rkhan@lemeridien-newdelhi.com http://www.hotels-new-delhi.com/hotel-le-meridien-new-delhi.html has also been indicated as a good hotel. Could you please give me an idea, off the Council list to: <gnso.secretariat@gnso.icann.org> if you would like to be included in a block booking by COB Central European Time (CET) tomorrow, Friday 21 December, as available space is going fast.
