Confirmation: All registrants will receive a confirmation packet four weeks before the convention. The packet will include registration confirmation, general convention information and spouse/guest program information.

Hotel Accommodations: GBA has negotiated a discounted group rate on rooms at the Renaissance Waverly Hotel. Rooms are available for $159 per night single/double, plus applicable taxes and service charges. The guest rooms welcome guests with a blend of comfort and technology. Amenities include opulent pillow-top mattresses and deluxe down comforters, plush robes, Web TV, data ports, high-speed internet access, a CD/ DVD player and an in-room coffee/tea service.

Early Departure from the Hotel
In the event that a guest checks out of the hotel before his or her reserved check-out date, an early departure fee of one night’s accommodations will be charged to that guest’s account. Guests wishing to avoid this fee must advise the hotel at or before check-in of any change in their scheduled length of stay.

Pre/Post Convention Extensions
The discounted group rate will be in effect for run-of house rooms from Friday, June 12, through Friday, June 19, based on availability.

Hotel Cut-Off Date: All reservations must be received by the hotel no later than Friday, May 22. After this date, reservations will be accepted on a space- and rate-availability basis. Rooms may sell out before the cut-off date. All reservations must be guaranteed with a one-night room and tax deposit. Cancellations received seven (7) or fewer days before arrival will result in forfeiture of this deposit.

To Reserve Accommodations: Guests should call the hotel directly at 888.391.8724 or 770.953.4500 and ask for Reservations. Remember to reference the “Georgia Bankers Association Annual Convention” to receive the discounted rate.
