To request an accessibility accommodation for NATPE Budapest 2024, please contact us by email at natpebudapestsupport@brunico.com. In the meantime, here are some general Q&As to help you understand the service options that will be available at the event.
How do I request an accessible hotel room at the InterContinental Budapest?
When making your booking online, under the ‘Requests’ section, check the ‘Accessible room’ box, and include a note in the ‘Additional Requests’ section. You can also send an email to budapest.res@ihg.com and cc hannaimola.bocskor@ihg.com to request an accessible room. Please feel free to share any other accessibility details with the InterContinental team that are important for your visit.
Wheelchair accessibility and mobility
The hotel front entrance, as well as entrances to all onsite event spaces and restaurants, are wheelchair-accessible.
Are there accessible lavatories on all floors where the event is taking place?
Yes. There are accessible washrooms on the lobby level, as well as on the first level.
Do you provide companion passes for support persons?
Any attendee who requires the physical assistance of a support person can request a Companion Pass at no charge. This support person must accompany the attendee needing assistance in order to be permitted to enter sessions and networking events. Please email natpebudapestsupport@brunico.com to discuss your needs.
Do you allow service animals at the event?
The InterContinental Budapest and NATPE welcome service animals that are trained and certified to do work or perform tasks for people with physical disabilities. Animals that provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals and are not permitted at NATPE events.
Does NATPE provide Sign Language interpreters?
Upon request, NATPE can provide a Sign Language interpreter for sessions taking place in the main session rooms. Attendees who require interpretation for any other sessions or business meetings will need to arrange these services themselves and request a Companion Pass accommodation (see above).
Is there accessible seating available at sessions?
Accessible front-row seating will be reserved and available in the main session rooms on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have specific seating requirements for our other session rooms, please contact natpebudapestsupport@brunico.com to make arrangements.
Will there be a quiet room at NATPE Budapest?
Upon request, NATPE will guide delegates to a dedicated therapeutic space to help focus themselves so they can be better prepared for participating in the program and networking with others. Please note that designated quiet rooms will not be provided for non-therapeutic purposes such as taking meetings or making phone calls.
