The Westin San Diego Gaslamp Quarter is the host hotel for the 2024 International Conference and is within walking distance of many fun sights.

By hosting the Conference there, we secured an excellent rate of $289++ per night for our attendees. Understanding that this rate may still be over budget for some departments or attendees, we have been able to buy down the rate for the first 900 room nights reserved through the official room block. This rate will be $239++ (for only the first 900 room nights).

Room nights are counted as one room per night. Example:  2 rooms booked for 4 nights each would count as 8 room nights.

Please note that this low rate is on a first-come, first-serve basis so reserve your room(s) early and only reserve what you need! ++ Taxes and Fees
