Hotel Information

How do I make my hotel reservations?

Hotel room reservations have been incorporated into our registration process to create a one-stop, on-line registration system. To receive the Summit rate at the participating hotels, you must book your hotel room through the on-line registration system, by September 27, 2007.

Why can’t I just call the hotels directly?

You no longer need to call the hotels to book sleeping rooms for the Summit. The hotels with Summit room blocks will not take phone reservations. Those who register early will have first choice of hotels.

Why is the September 27, 2007 deadline important?

In order to take advantage of the Summit rates for these hotels, you must make your reservation by September 27, 2007. After that date, we will release any unsold rooms. If you want to reserve a hotel room after September 27, 2007, you must call the hotel directly. The Summit rate may not be available after September 27.

Hotel Cancellation

To cancel your hotel reservation on or before September 27, contact April Petersen at aprilp@awcnet.org. After September 27, you must contact the hotel directly. If you cancel within 48 hours of your arrival date, you may be charged for one night’s lodging.
