Hotels

There are a number of options for hotel accommodations. The conference will not be reserving a room block so participants should look for hotel options that meet their needs and budgets. Below are suggestions to help you with your plans.

For those looking for an urban hotel experience, the recommended hotel is the Omni Los Angeles. Be sure to look for the “net savvy” rate online or other discounts such as AAA. You will need to use a cab to get to the conference facility. The Omni can be reached by flying into LAX airport and taking a Super Shuttle.

A less expensive option is to fly to the Burbank Airport and stay at hotels in Burbank. Recommended hotels are the Courtyard Los Angeles Burbank Airport and the Burbank Airport Marriott Hotel and Convention Center. Reservations can be made for either of these hotels online at www.marriott.com. Be sure to ask for appropriate discounts such as the AAA discount. It is easy access by train to the Center. Both hotels are within walking distance of the train station. Union Station in downtown Los Angeles is a 30-minute ride and a block from the conference facility.

Another option is to fly into LAX airport and stay at a hotel in the airport area. There are a number of hotels with varying prices. The conference facility can be accessed by taking the Fly Bus from the airport to Union Station or taking a Super Shuttle directly to the Center.
