Important Notes

  • The cost of your hotel room is not included in your registration.
  • You will be required to enter a credit card to guarantee your reservation, but no deposit is required upon booking. Group Payment is available if organized with our housing partners HPN Global in advance.
  • Blocks are assigned on a first come, first served basis. The sooner you request your block, the better chance you have of being placed in a hotel of your choice. The assigned hotel having desired amenities is not guaranteed.
  • Submitting a request is not a commitment; it is an expression of interest in group housing.
  • When submitting your request, estimate high on how many rooms you will need, especially if you are not traveling with a set number of people and may later need to add rooms (it is easier to drop rooms than add).
  • Request any additional rooms by November 1. Please note that it may not be possible to fulfill your request due to availability.
  • For group housing cancellation policies, please see the agreement that will be provided upon requesting a group block.
