Please note: Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel requires that all ANA event-related reservations be secured with a deposit of one night’s stay. Radisson Blu Aqua will process the deposit payment for each reservation immediately. In the event a credit card number is invalid or declines, the hotel will contact the guest directly to secure the deposit. Should an alternate form of payment not be made within 48 hours of the guest’s notification, the hotel will cancel the reservation. Cancellations received after August 23, 2024 will forfeit the deposit of one night’s stay. 

HOUSING SCAM ALERT: Should an outside organization contact you to assist with this process, please do not book any hotel rooms with them. ANA has not contracted with any outside group to assist in this process.
