I think most of the government rate hotels are going to be either next to the conference center or further south toward the city center. I've got a govt rate room in the Hilton Portland & Executive Tower. Wesley On Saturday, January 10, 2015, Fab Tillier <[email protected]> wrote:

That's the best they could give me, and is in line with historical costs for the conference hotel. I don't know what the gov't rate is, isn't that what you'd get? Anyway, if you find something better, please let us know.

FYI, the group rate of 179$ is way above the DOE max lodging costs (137$). I'd expect most DOE folks to not be able to use this.

Hi Folks,

Here's the link for the hotel room block. They only gave me the exact dates, I'm working with them to extend that a day before/after. I believe if you book by phone they can extend the stay, just not via the URL.

You can also search for rooms using the MPIMPIA group code, but again it

only works for the 2nd through 5th.

Will update everyone if I succeed in expanding the date range.
