By making your reservation within the event’s official housing block, you are supporting the event and ensuring lower overall costs such as registration and convention center fees. Not to mention, you benefit by receiving the lowest rate for your room(s), and you continue to accumulate your hotel loyalty rewards points.

Booking with anyone other than Expovision does not provide you access to the official discounted rates that have been negotiated specifically for the event. Additionally, you’ll miss out on the reservation flexibility and other benefits that come with booking in the event’s official hotel block. If your company mandates that you use your corporate travel arm or another company to book your hotel/travel, it’s worth asking your travel manager to consider booking through us to receive the benefits of the event’s official hotel block.

A standard room is a room with 1 or 2 beds.

The hotel does not specify bed types. If you would like to request a specific room type, a request can be added to the Request section of your reservation. While hotels try their best to accommodate these requests, they are not guaranteed.

All available rooms are listed on the website. If a hotel or room night is not available, you can be added to the waitlist as long as you have a reservation in our system. To be placed on the waitlist, email the event email box with your acknowledgement number, name of guest(s) to be waitlisted, the name of the hotel, and the room nights needed. You will receive an email confirming your reservation(s) IF your request clears the waitlist.

1. On the event hotel reservation website, under “Please select your guest type”, click on the link, “Manage Existing Reservation”. You will then be asked to enter your acknowledgement number and email address used at the time of booking.
2. Within the hotel confirmation, a link will be provided.
