MinamiCon Animal Policy
No animals of any kind, with the exception of registered assistance dogs, are permitted in the convention event rooms.
Animals in public areas of the hotel or guest rooms are subject to the hotel's policy on pets. See https://help.accor.com/s/article/are-dogs-and-cats-allowed for more details.
For the safety of all involved, however, we would like to kindly ask that any pets in the public areas of the hotel be kept away from the corridors and entrances leading to convention areas, as these are often crowded and used for moving heavy equipment.
