Hotel

We are excited to be returning this year to the Sheraton Vancouver Guildford Hotel In Surrey, BC!

Located across from Guildford Town Centre in Surrey, The Sheraton Vancouver Guildford is a landmark building in the business and entertainment districts of central Surrey. Recently renovated, it offers spectacular views, large guest rooms and suites, as well as a restaurant with global cuisine and a year-round outdoor pool. There is also a fitness center and spa for guests to enjoy and is dog friendly! 

Overflow Hotels

Our official overflow is the Sandman Suites Surrey and the Four Points by Sheraton Surrey.

Hotel block booking is now CLOSED

The Main Hotel and Overflows bookings through the convention are now closed.

If you still need a room, we encourage you to contact the overflow hotels or other hotels in the area directly to arrange accommodations for yourself.

If you have already made a booking but wish to get confirmation or add information to your booking, please contact the hotel you booked with directly. You do not require a reservation number when contacting them, they can find your reservation.

When checking in, you also do not require your confirmation number, as they can search for your booking by name.

Parking

For people staying in the main hotel, you get one vehicle included for the duration of your stay.

For people staying in the overflow hotels, please contact the hotel you are staying at for their parking information.

Anyone not staying at the main hotel or has more then one vehicle will be charged at a rate of $19.55 per vehicle per day to park in the convention hotel parkade. (additional fees may apply for payment via apps instead of the payment kiosk).

Hotel Shuttle

If you are staying at the Sheraton Four Points, due to the longer distance from the hotel we have arranged a shuttle bus system between it and the main hotel.

The schedule is as follows;

Thursday

  • 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM – Starting at Four Points and heading to Guildford
  • 11:15 PM to 2:15 AM – Starting at Guildford heading to Four Points Hotel

Friday

  • 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM – Starting at Four Points and heading to Guildford
  • 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM – Starting at Four Points and heading to Guildford
  • 11:15 PM to 2:15 AM – Starting at Guildford heading to Four Points Hotel

Saturday

  • 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM – Starting at Four Points and heading to Guildford
  • 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM – Starting at Four Points and heading to Guildford
  • 11:15 PM to 2:15 AM – Starting at Guildford heading to Four Points Hotel

Sunday

  • 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM – Starting at Four Points and heading to Guildford
  • 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM – Starting at Four Points and heading to Guildford

The shuttle will be staying at each stop for a few minutes, maybe 5 to 10 after people disembark from the vehicle before moving to the other hotel. Where it will wait for a short while before returning to the previous hotel. In theory you should only have to wait for maybe 10 to 20 minutes before the shuttle arrives.

Hotel Guest Conduct Expectations

Vancoufur seeks to maintain a strong and positive relationship with our hotels and venues by working together to ensure that we can continue to be welcome at this venue (or others) to host our event year over year. Attendee conduct is very important to maintain a good relationship with our venue. As a convention attendee you must abide by the hotel and venue’s rules and policies when you are on the premises and treat the hotel and its staff with respect and courtesy.

  • Respect all signs
  • Smoke or vape only in designated areas
  • Clean up after yourself
  • Do not vandalize or damage hotel property or decor.
  • Keep signs and promotion materials to designated spaces and do not litter.
  • Do not put things on walls without permission from the conventions staff so you get the correct adhesive tape (so the walls aren’t damaged)
  • Be respectful of other hotel guests

Remember, your behavior reflects on everyone. Be respectful of the hotel, their staff, and hotel property.

Dealers, Quiet and Loud Rooms

If you require a loud or quiet room please let us know at hotel@vancoufur.org. Dealers will have a separate block that they will be given access to after being accepted, so they do not have to worry about booking immediately

Cancellation can be done via self service cancellation link in the email confirmation. DO NOT CALL THE HOTEL TO CANCEL A ROOM as it will not return the room to the convention’s booking block.

Loud Rooms must abide by the following rules:

  • Loud rooms are not permitted to use dedicated subwoofer or high bass audio systems which can cause noise problems for other guests who are a long distance away. Music must be kept at a reasonable level (80db or lower.)
  • Loud rooms are arranged specifically to reduce hall traffic and limit noise pollution to other areas to minimize complaints, if you do not indicate you are a loud room, do not host a party or it will be shut down. You have been warned.
  • SMOKING AND VAPING are not allowed inside your hotel rooms. There are designated smoking areas, outside and if you do not adhere to them, heavy fines will be assigned to offending rooms.
  • Doors and windows must be kept closed at all times to prevent noise pollution from spreading to other floors and outside the building. (It echoes, and the neighbors don’t like it)
  • Your room is exclusively YOUR responsibility for the duration of your stay and you will be held responsible for the things that happen in it. Keep it clean and damage free, or you will be charged accordingly.
  • If you plan to host a public party, you will be required apply to the party block and abide by all party block rules. Public parties that are unregistered outside the block will be shut down.

I live local, why should I book a room?

There are a lot of good reasons to stay in the hotel, even if you are local. Being right in the middle of the action, not worrying about having to drive or catch transit home late is a big plus.  You can relax and enjoy the time with your friends and catch great late night events without having to worry about when that last bus is coming. If you drive, you get free parking all weekend with your room. It supports the con, builds our relationship with the hotel, and it makes it easier for you to enjoy the full range of programing without worrying about when you have to leave. Its also really nice in the morning just to walk down the stairs and be right back into things without having to deal with transit or traffic to be right up front to snag that coveted badge slot in the dealer’s den.  It’s a lot less stress at the convention and convenient to enjoy everything the con has to offer.

Can’t afford it on your own? There are lots of ways to find Roomshare options, from Conroomies, our Discord Channel, or to our telegram chat.

Cancelation and Transfer policies have changed. Be sure to pick the right option when booking.

When booking for the Main Hotel & Four Points by Sheraton Surrey:

  • If you think you will need to modify, cancel, transfer or change your booking, please select the $79 CAD flat fee. This fee is a convenience fee and will not be refunded or applied to your booking, it is a fee to allow you to cancel without incurring a larger fee. You may cancel or change your booking until 1 month before con. Cancellation or Transfer after this date will cost $155++ (taxes and fees extra) CAD.*
  • If you choose the .99 cent booking option, THERE IS NO CANCELLATION, MODIFICATIONS, OR TRANSFERS. If you do, there will be a minimum $155+taxes/fees cost.

Sandman Suites Guildford:

  • Cancellations incur one night fee room + tax, no matter when the cancellation occurs.

To avoid being charged fees be sure whomever is reserving the room for your party is 100% committed to attending. If you do not cancel, you won’t incur fees.

It is very important to book with and support the hotels that the event contracts with. The better our numbers, the more we can negotiate on your behalf for better prices, services, and other perks. If we do not fill our room blocks, our reputation and relationships with the hotels suffers. We need to show them we are serious and bring serious business to them. Please try to book in the main hotel or overflows as much as possible.
