Hotel Information
We know that, for many attendees, finding the lowest possible hotel rate is paramount, and we are aware that often people choose to stay on the outskirts of town and then choose to drive to the meeting each day.
It certainly is your choice as to where to stay during the meeting, but please understand that commitments are made to the host hotels that a specified number of hotel rooms will be occupied by our meeting attendees. In exchange for the hotel room occupation, we are provided with complimentary meeting space, along with many other cost-saving concessions.
The organizing societies continue to make every effort to keep costs at a minimum for those attending the JMIH. We ask for your help in assuring that there are no negative financial implications to the societies and the membership.
