Contract Negotiations
We negotiate aspects of the hotel contract including sleeping rooms, conference rooms, food and beverage, and ancillary spending with at least ten rooms on any peak night.
*For commissionable venues
The addendum to our hotel contract that American Express GBT Meetings & Events negotiated for us has saved us a considerable amount of money. Knowing we won’t be on the hook for F&B cancellation charges if we cancel before a certain date means that when our plans change, we don’t lose out!
