HOTELS FOR ISST 2012 NY CONFERENCE

The ISST has secured room blocks at four conveniently located hotels. Please make your reservations as soon as possible as there is a limited amount of rooms in each hotel block. The cutoff date to make these reservations is April 16, 2012 at that time the rates are subject to change:

Marriott Downtown http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/nycws-new-york-marriott-downtown/
Rate: $279 + tax ($14.75% sales tax + $3.50 occupancy tax)

THIS RATE NOT AVAILABLE AFTER APRIL 25TH, 2012.

Across from NYAS

Located just across from the New York Academy of Science, this is a great choice. The hotel has river and bay views away from construction. The rooms are a nice size. The décor is comfortable and the atmosphere quiet. They have a state-of-the-art fitness center. For those interested in some late night discussions, there is sports bar open until midnight.

Located across from the New York Academy of Science, this is a great option if you are looking for a chic New York experience. The décor is modern and trendy.

126 Water Street

If you are on a tight budget, the Holiday Inn Express is for you. It’s not glamorous and it’s a few blocks from NYAS, but you’re outside the hustle of the 911 Memorial site. The rooms are clean, the gym is adequate and your reservation includes a hot breakfast.

Millenium Hilton
http://www1.hilton.com/en_US/hi/hotel/NYCMLHH-Millenium-Hilton-New-York/...

This hotel is very large for NY: bigger rooms, bigger gym, and a pool.
The only negative is that it’s a bit noisy!!! If you are a good sleeper, it’s probably fine. It looks out directly onto the 9/11 Site.

The taximeter shall combine fractional measures of distance and time to accrue a unit of fare. Any combination of distance or time shall be computed by the taximeter in accordance with the National Bureau of Standards.

Different variables such as heavy traffic and tolls should be taken into account in gauging the final cost of your trip.
