Accomodation

We have blocked a number of rooms in three local hotels, all of which meet the GSA per diem requirements ($110 per night before tax). You can choose any one of them, or book your own hotel, but we do request that you inform us of where you will be staying so we can take care of your transportation to and from campus. 

Here are the three pre-arranged options:

  1. Hilton Hotel ($110/night + taxes)
    1. Group Code: CMS16
    2. Cut-off Date: November 15
    3. Address: 801 University Dr E, College Station, TX 77840
    4. Phone: (979) 693-7500
    5. Reserved from Monday December 5- Friday December 9th
    6. Booking link: http://www3.hilton.com; put in the dates, below where you enter the dates click on “more options” and Add Special Rate Codes, put in the Group Code CMS16 and the rate will pull up

 

  1. Vineyard Court ($110/night + taxes)
    1. Group Code: CMS17
    2. Cut-off Date: November 21
    3. Address: 1500 George Bush Dr E, College Station, TX 77840
    4. Phone: (979) 693-1220
    5. Reserved from Monday December 5- Friday December 9th
    6. No booking link; guests will have to call the hotel directly to receive group rate.

 

  1. Hampton Inn College Station ($110/night + taxes)
    1. Group Code: CMS
    2. Cut-off Date: November 18
    3. Address: 320 Texas Avenue South, College Station, TX 77840
    4. Phone: (979) 846-0184
    5. Reserved from Monday, December 5- Friday, December 9
    6. Booking link: www.collegestation.hamptoninn.com; put in the dates, below where you enter the dates click on Add Special Rate Codes, put in the Group Code CMS and the rate will pull up

You will have to provide a credit card number to make a reservation. All reservations have to be made on or before the group room block release date (see the "Cut-Off Date" for each option). Of the three options (they all cost the same), Hilton is an older hotel, but the rooms there are likely the nicest of the three options; Hampton Inn is on the simpler side, but it is the only one that is a walking distance to campus (about 10 minutes walk); Vineyard Court is in the middle in terms of the comfort, but their suites are the most spacious and include kitchenettes in case you plan on your own cooking. If you have questions or need any assistance, please contact the organizers.
