Check-in time is 4:00 p.m. and check-out time is 11:00 a.m.

Early Departure Fee:

An early departure fee, equal to one night room plus tax, may be charged if the hotel is not notified of an early departure 24 hours prior to check in.

Failure to check-in on your scheduled arrival date will result in a no-show fee, equal to one night room plus tax, and the reservation may be subject to cancellation.

Need an Accessible Room?

If you require an accessible room, please follow these steps:

1. Tick the "Accessible Room" box in the "Requests" section of the booking form.
2. In the "Additional Requests" box, please provide any additional details or needs related to the accessible room.

This will help ensure that the hotel can accommodate your accessibility requirements for your stay.

Why Book a Room Through NCA?

Both Convention attendees and the association benefit when you book a hotel room through NCA. Here's how:

• Networking — Staying within the official hotel block you are more likely to take advantage of networking opportunities with other attendees. It’s easy to meet up with colleagues in hotel restaurants, lobbies, and bars when they’re conveniently located inside your hotel.
• Best Rate — NCA is able to negotiate lower room rates at a range of quality hotels.
• Easily accessible — staying in an official hotel means less travel time, since you are already where you are supposed to be each morning, plus if you need a few minutes to yourself your room is only an elevator ride away. 
• NCA Support — should you encounter any issues with your stay at any of the contracted hotels, Academy staff can support you in getting them resolved with the hotel.
• Keeps Conference Costs Down — Your support in staying at NCA contracted hotels helps keep the conference costs down, which directly affects your registration fees. NCA guarantees the hotel that we will fill a certain number of “room nights” (rooms per night) during the conference. NCA incurs penalties if too many attendees opt to stay in other hotels in the area or neglect to indicate to the hotel that they are with the NCA conference. Currently, conference costs do not include meeting room rental. If NCA fails to fill the contracted room block, NCA is charged the cost for the meeting rooms daily, along with a hefty penalty. Future registration fees could increase to cover these additional risks.

Don’t be fooled by “housing pirates”.

Companies that phone, fax, or email attendees and exhibitors claiming to offer good deals on hotel rooms are commonly referred to as “housing pirates” or “housing bandits.” They may falsely claim to be affiliated with NCA. Please do not share your credit card information with any of these companies. NCA will not call you regarding hotel reservations and has not asked any hotels or other companies to do so.

If you are contacted by one of these “housing pirates,” please contact NCA at convention@natcom.org and include the following relevant information: 

• Company Name
• Email address (required)
• URL of fraudulent website or email address of fraudulent email (required)
• Text of website or email (optional)
• Additional details (optional)

Include as attachments pictures of the website, the actual email chain with the fraudulent company, and any invoices or other attachments sent by the fraudulent company (optional but extremely helpful)
