Group/Suite Bookings
If you are making five (5) or more reservations or wish to book a suite, please call or fax us at the above listed numbers. Our group coordinators will be happy to assist you.
Please note:
Special rates are per room, per night, do not reflect taxes, and are exclusive through ETI. Rates are in effect until approximately
30 days prior to the event (providing rooms are available), after which time we will continue to accept reservations at the prevailing
rack rates, subject to their availability. Early booking is advised to ensure choice of hotels and special rates. Do not contact

is required to confirm a reservation.
