    • Hotel charges. As far as the hotel is concerned, all guests will be responsible for their own guest room, resort fee, tax, and incidental charges. A $45.00 daily resort fee (reduced from the current fee of $50.00) plus the applicable Clark County Room Tax will be applied to each hotel room reservation and includes certain amenities.

    • 2025 WLC Group Rate Reservation Cut-Off. The cut-off date for the 2025 WLC hotel room block reservations is Friday, September 5, 2025. Reservation requests received after that date will be accepted on a space available basis at the 2025 WLC contracted rate at the hotel’s discretion.

    • Room Deposit/Payment. At the time of hotel booking it is the conference attendee’s responsibility to submit as a guarantee a valid credit card number (with name as it appears on the card, CVV (the three of four-digit security code), billing address and credit card expiration date), or a cash deposit equal to the first night’s room rate and tax. The guest’s credit card will be charged the first night’s room rate and tax at that time. Individual room reservations not guaranteed will be automatically cancelled by the hotel within 14 days of the reservation date.

    • All guaranteed reservations will be held until 6:00 a.m. only on the day after the attendee’s confirmed arrival date.

    • Room Cancellations. The hotel allows an individual attendee the right to cancel their guest room/suite reservations without penalty up to 72 hours prior to the guest’s scheduled arrival date. There will be a charge of the first night’s guest room/suite rate and tax for cancellation within 72 hours of the scheduled arrival date or failure of the individual to check in on the scheduled arrival date for an uncancelled reservation.

    • Unless otherwise arranged, all conference attendees/hotel guests will be responsible for their own guest room, resort fee, tax, and incidental room charges.
