Yes, while more then 10 000 delegates rest themselves in swanky hotels such as Ritz-Carlton which command up to USD 185 per stay, we have come up with a list of hotels fit for down-to-earth folks like you and us.

The red star on the map marks the convention venue.

1. Allson Hotel, 101 Victoria Street from USD 80
2. Bayview Hotel, 30 Bencoolen Street from USD 84
