HOUSING INFORMATION
for ITEA's 71st Annual Conference in
Louisville, Kentucky on March 26-28, 2009
ITEA CONFERENCE HOUSING WILL OPEN ON OCTOBER 1st.
Accommodations/Housing Package
The official ITEA hotels are the Louisville Downtown Marriott (ITEA Headquarters), Springhill Suites and the Fairfield Inn, both “by Marriott.” All hotels are within walking distance of the Center (no shuttle service provided). Our special ITEA conference rates are guaranteed to be the lowest you can find, and these rooms—at these prices—will not last long. Rooms at these properties are selling at rates much higher than our conference rates, so don’t delay in making your reservation and securing a room in the ITEA room block. Housing will be handled by each individual property—via phone, via fax, or via the web.
Your reservation requests will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis, so register early to ensure your first choice of hotels. All hotels are smoke-free. Rates are available three days prior/following the official ITEA meeting dates (based on availability).
Room Deposits
All reservations must be accompanied by a first-night room deposit, or guaranteed by a major credit card. Individuals are responsible for their own reservations, room, tax, and incidentals.
The ITEA rates are the lowest you will find at these properties, and these room blocks were set up for you—our attendees. If we do not fill the rooms we have contracted for, penalties are assessed to the association and, without your support, ITEA faces financial penalties for unused sleeping rooms. Thank you in advance for booking your hotel room with the official ITEA hotels.
The Room Block Cut-off Date
Cut-off date for all hotels is Friday, February 13th. In order to ensure availability, please make your reservations by this important deadline.
