Group Bookings & Room Blocks
Managing accommodation for large groups — whether a 500-person conference delegation, a 50-person training cohort, or a sports team on tour — requires precision, flexibility, and real-time coordination. Hostiva Connect's group bookings platform streamlines room allocation, rate negotiation, and attendee management so your event team can focus on the experience, not the logistics.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our group bookings & room blocks service.
What is the minimum and maximum group size you handle?▼
We handle groups from 10 rooms upward, with no upper limit. Our largest single booking to date was 1,200 rooms across 4 hotels for a global technology conference.
How far in advance should we book?▼
For large conferences (200+ rooms), we recommend booking 6–12 months ahead to secure the best rates and hotel proximity. Smaller groups can be arranged within 2–4 weeks.
Can attendees book their own rooms?▼
Yes. We provide a branded self-service portal where attendees can select room types, add preferences, and manage their own check-in/out dates within the allocated block.
What happens if we need fewer rooms than originally reserved?▼
Our contracts include flexible attrition clauses — typically you can release up to 20% of rooms without penalty up to 30 days before arrival.
