HOTEL INFORMATION

Hotel Reservation Deadline: Friday, September 20, 2024

GUEST ROOM RATE

Conference Rate

For single or double occupancy in a standard room, the discounted conference room rate is $169/night plus tax. An extra charge of $10 per night will apply for triple or quadruple occupancy.

Standard rooms on higher floors with a river view (single or double occupancy) are available for $179/night plus tax. An extra charge of $10 per night will apply for triple or quadruple occupancy.

Government Rate

Those who qualify and can provide their government ID upon check-in are eligible to obtain the prevailing government per diem rate at the time of check-in. As the fiscal year begins on October 1, the 2025 per diem rate will apply for this conference. The 2025 rate has not yet been announced; however, for planning purposes, the 2024 rate is $127/night plus tax for single or double occupancy in a standard room. To see this option when making a reservation, be sure to click the "Special Rates" button located at the top of the reservation page and select "Government/Military Rates."

Complimentary guestroom Wi-Fi is included in the above rates.

Please note: The discounted room rate applies for the nights of October 20–24 only. If you wish to arrive early, it may be possible to receive the discounted rate, but this is at the hotel's discretion and is based on availability. If this applies to you, please make your reservation to include only the nights above, then send your full name, confirmation number, and desired add-on date(s) to ProfEd@WSU.edu. We cannot guarantee that the hotel will offer the discount on the extra night(s), but we will communicate with the hotel on your behalf to explore whether this is possible.

If you are sharing a room with another person, be sure that your name is added to the reservation. Be aware that if your name does not appear on the room reservation, you are not officially considered a guest of the hotel.

RESERVATION DEADLINE

The final day to reserve rooms at the conference rate is Friday, September 20, 2024. Rooms within the reserved conference block will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis. We cannot guarantee rooms at the conference rate once the room block has been sold; thus, participants are encouraged to reserve well in advance of the final cutoff.

HOW TO RESERVE

A credit card is required at the time of reservation to hold a room but will not be charged at the time of reservation. You may make your reservation online at the conference rate by clicking here. Those who qualify for the government per diem rate may reserve by clicking here. Booking the conference hotel through these links is the only way to guarantee you will receive the published rate and that the Western Protective Relay Conference will get credit for your booking. Reservations made through third-party websites (e.g., Expedia, Hotels.com, etc.) are not considered part of the group block and do not help offset the group’s room commitment.

EARLY DEPARTURE FEE

If a guest who has made a room reservation checks out prior to the reserved checkout date, the hotel will add an early checkout fee to that guest's individual account (currently $50.00). To avoid this fee, guests must advise the hotel at or before check-in of any change in planned length of stay.

BE AWARE OF SCAMS!

Neither the hotel nor conference organizers have authorized any third-party agents to represent them in booking rooms for attendees. Booking a room using the above link is the only reservation method guaranteed by the hotel to result in an actual reservation. Please be aware that phone and email scams exist which target conference attendees, and scammers may even attempt to impersonate a representative of the Western Protective Relay Conference, Washington State University, or the hotel. Please report such fraudulent activity to wprc@wsu.edu.
