Group accommodation

Group accommodation and room blocks, negotiated for you

Room blocks for teams, delegates and guests, held at rates you won't find on public booking sites, across single or multiple properties.

Booking ten rooms should not mean ten times the admin. We negotiate and hold the block as a single arrangement, so your group stays together and on rate, with one person to call when things change, right up to arrival.

What we handle

  • Negotiated group rates below public booking-site pricing
  • Held room blocks with flexible release dates
  • Single or multi-property arrangements for large groups
  • Rooming lists, billing and changes handled in one place

Free to you, with the sourcing, the negotiating and the follow up all included. How we're paid

The spaces

A few of the venues we work with.

We work right across the market rather than for any one hotel group, so treat this as a starting point rather than a list. Every room here is in a venue we have walked through ourselves, and each one links to what we found. Tell us about your event and we will match it to the properties that suit it.

Direct vs CVBS

Why not just book the block yourself?

You certainly can. Here is what changes when we hold it for you instead.

Booking direct

  • Public rates, negotiated room by room
  • You chase availability and every change
  • Separate invoices to reconcile
  • Pay for rooms you don't fill

Through CVBS

  • Negotiated group rate, held as one block
  • We manage rooming lists and changes
  • One consolidated invoice
  • Flexible release dates that protect you
How it works

We carry the block, so your team does not have to.

  1. Up front

    We hold the block

    We secure and hold rooms at a negotiated group rate, with release terms that protect you from paying for what you don't use.

  2. Right up to arrival

    We manage the list

    Rooming lists, name changes and the inevitable late additions are handled by us rather than your team, across one property or several.

  3. After checkout

    We consolidate the billing

    One arrangement, one contact and clean billing, so reconciling a 200-room block does not land on your desk.

FAQ

Common questions

Is there a minimum group size?
Group rates typically apply from around 10 rooms per night, but talk to us, we'll always check what's achievable for your numbers.
Can you arrange accommodation alongside a conference?
Yes. We regularly package delegate accommodation with the conference venue as a single negotiation, which strengthens your rate on both.
What does it cost?
Nothing to you. Our help with group accommodation is free, and the rates we hold are usually better than the public ones.
