With a minimum number of rooms blocked at reduced rates for ASHEcon delegates, these rooms are going quickly. At this time, with the Statler Hotel completely booked, rooms remain available at the Hampton Inn & Holiday Inn, with a minimal number remaining at the Hilton Garden. All three hotels have advised they will be providing shuttle service, and we highly recommend you confirm your needs upon checking in.
