HOTELS
HOTEL REQUEST PROCESS
You may request hotel rooms at the time of ticket request. In order for the hotel site to be enabled, at least one (1) ticket must be requested and paid for.
To qualify for the NCYC group rate, hotels generally require a three-night stay—Thursday to Sunday. (If you are considering departing Saturday night, remember you will need a plan to store your luggage.)
Using NCYC block hotel rooms helps underwrite the convention center rental cost.
Review Process
Please allow us ninety (90) days to review, accept, or reject your request. As we assess requests, we are seeking to:
- Place (large) groups in one hotel unless two or more are required or requested.
- Place groups that must fly due to distance within walking distance of convention facilities or near the airport.
We will contact you to discuss alternatives if we cannot accept your request.
