Room Reservations:
All meetings will be held in the host hotel. When the NARUC block sells out, we recommend using your favorite hotel chain website or a travel-related website and search for hotels downtown near the JW Marriott.

Individuals attending the NARUC Summer Policy Summit must register for the meetings BEFORE reserving a room at the meetings Hotel at the NARUC Group Rate. Rooms in the NARUC hotel block are for NARUC registrants only. One reservation per registrant is allowed.

NOTE: Be wary of travel scams. If anyone claiming to be associated with a travel agency and/or “convention housing” contacts you with an offer for booking a hotel room for this event, do NOT provide your contact or payment information. This is a scam. NARUC does not contract with such firms. In some cases, these companies falsely claim to be the official housing bureau or room representative for NARUC. We have NOT contracted with any company to serve as our representative. If the headquarters hotel sells out – overflow hotels will be noted on our website.
