Participating schools are welcome to reserve rooms at the hotel venue on their own. Neither the symposium venue nor any hotel listed offer financial incentives from room blocks. Hotels listed in Mailer 1 are approximately 5 to 9 minute drive or less from the Houston Marriott Sugar Land hotel. You do not have to make reservations at the hotels listed. This is only to assist you in the search for hotel accommodation at or near the venue and we suggest you look into other hotels outside of the ones mentioned below to find the best suitable option for your team.
