<\/a><\/p>\nWe have taken great care to select hotels which are comfortable, close to the Convention Center and that will meet a range of budgets.<\/p>\n
Crowne Plaza Portland \u2013 Downtown Convention Center<\/a>: $194 per night, flat rate for single, double, triple or quad. It is a 0.3 mile walk (~ 7 minutes) from the hotel to the Convention Center. \u00a0Complimentary, high speed internet in guest rooms. \u00a0Make your reservations by contacting the hotel at 1-866-242-1264 and mention booking code MGC<\/strong>. \u00a0You may also make your reservations online<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n For those wishing to extend their stay beyond the conference, a separate block of rooms has been created for July 16th and beyond. \u00a0The rates for this extended block are:<\/p>\n We know that, for many attendees, finding the lowest possible hotel rate is paramount, and we are aware that often people choose to stay on the outskirts of town and then choose to drive to the conference each day.<\/p>\n However, before you book your hotel room for the International Master Gardener Conference, we want to mention the following ….<\/p>\n We have made\u00a0 every effort to keep costs at a minimum for those attending the 2017 International Master Gardener Conference. One way this is done is to make a commitment to the convention and visitor’s bureau and to the host hotels that a specified number of hotel rooms will be occupied by our conference attendees. In exchange for the hotel room occupation, the convention and visitor’s bureau provides a rebate that helps to cover the cost of renting the convention center.\u00a0 Without this rebate, we would not be able to afford to host the conference at the convention center at a reasonable rate for conference attendees.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n We encourage all conference attendees to stay at the host hotels. Please be aware that if you are sharing a room with another delegate, both names must appear on the room reservation by the hotel reservation cut-off date.<\/p>\n Staying at the host hotel makes it easy to enjoy the the camaraderie of fellow Master Gardeners volunteers, faculty and staff and conference attendees inside and outside of scheduled activities.<\/p>\n Just imagine – no commuting time to conference activities; additional networking time with colleagues; and amenities, such as room service, safes, exercise facilities, and restaurants\/shops – everything in one convenient location.<\/p>\n It certainly is your choice as to where you desire to stay during the conference, but please understand that we\u00a0 have contractual commitments that we must honor. \u00a0We hope that you will help us\u00a0assure that there are no negative financial implications when hosting an International Master Gardener Conference.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Conference Hotels We have taken great care to select hotels which are comfortable, close to the Convention Center and that will meet a range of budgets.
