so that's $27k for two days for ~100 people. That comes to ~$135 per
person per day excluding accommodation.

Actually, Les Suites was CAD175 per day for accommodation only ...
that's about USD150 ... The novotel was a more reasonable CAD110 which
is roughly USD100.
The only thing we're really missing to compare apples to apples is the
cost of catered in lunch.
