Information and Rates

MBA's Annual Convention and Expo will be held at the Hyatt Regency Chicago. MBA has secured a block of rooms at a reduced rate at the Hyatt Regency, as well as other nearby hotels, for registered attendees.

Once registered for the convention, attendees will receive a confirmation letter with a personalized link to secure their room. Each paid registrant may reserve one guestroom. You may reserve hotel accommodations only after you have registered and paid for the convention.

Discount Cutoff: Wednesday, September 9

The room reservation deadline does not ensure the availability of rooms. If rooms are available until the deadline, you will receive the discounted hotel rate. After the deadline, reservations will be made on a space-available basis only.

Hotel Reservation Policies

All reservations must be secured with a credit card valid through the month of departure. If you have special housing needs, please note them in the special requests section so we can let the hotel know. To avoid a one night's room and tax charge, reservations must be canceled at least 3 days prior to your scheduled arrival. No-shows will be treated as cancellations and charged one night's room and tax. To avoid possible early checkout fees, please advise the hotel at or before check-in of any change in planned length of stay. A portion of the room rate will be used to offset conference expenses.

IMPORTANT
It has been brought to our attention that several travel brokers, identifying themselves as being with MBA, have been contacting MBA exhibitors and sponsors and offering hotel rooms at our convention hotels. They are not affiliated with or working for MBA and we cannot guarantee the rooms or any amenities they promise will be available as we do not have a relationship with these companies. MBA does NOT work with ANY third-party booking company that will solicit you. You should secure a room in the MBA room block by following the hotel reservation instructions that will be provided when you register for the convention and/or receive your official confirmation email from MBA.

Please contact the MBA Meetings department for questions regarding your hotel reservation.
