Why Book a Hotel Through the AAN? • Greater networking opportunities • All hotels within walking distance of the Washington State Convention Center • High-quality venues and amenities • Discounted rates and easy-to-modify reservations • Friendly booking terms: No change fees or full prepayment upon booking • Housing representatives are available in advance and on-site for assistance with official hotels
Protect yourself from fraudulent booking companies. Convention Management Resources (CMR) is the official and only registration and housing partner of the AAN and is accessible via AAN.com/AM.
Look Out for Hotel Scammers Follow these important tips when booking housing: 1. CMR is the only official housing provider for the 2022 AAN Annual Meeting. 2. Scammers and poachers generally request full payment for your hotel stay. CMR will only request a credit card guarantee for one-night room and tax deposit. 3. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. 4. If you have not booked through the official block, the AAN is unable to help you resolve any issues with the hotel. 5. The best way to book your hotel is to navigate to the housing site on AAN.com/AM.
