    THe Op has stated his reason for not wanting to share is because of snoring, this is a pretty valid reason for not wanting to share, I wouldnt want to either.

    I would have a quiet word with the organiser. You never know e.g. if there are odd numbers of people etc...!

    Uncertain, honesstly, do you really think that sharing a room is all that scary? I mean what will the other person be? an axe murderer? boring? gay?

    No: smelly/farty/wanting to stay up late/wanting to go to bed early/ wanting to use the loo many times during the night/wanting to watch TV until 3am/a quilt rustler when the lights are off/snorer/grunter/roller abouter/texter at 4am/vivid dreamer/pillow snatcher/chatter/not able to string a sentence togetherer/your jokes aren't actually funny-er....

    No end of annoying and frustrating quirks - and that's if they AREN'T an axe murderer....

    It's the principle; the employer made a huge profit and can afford it - they are requesting attendance at a conference, the management are highly likely not to be sharing so why the heck should the OP?
    If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.
