The conference hotel will be the Hotel Vetro, 201 South Linn Street, in downtown Iowa City. Because the Hotel Vetro has fewer rooms than our usual conference hotel (the Sheraton which was sold and is currently closed for renovation), additional rooms for the conference are also available at the brand-new Hilton Garden Inn, 328 South Clinton Street, located just a few minutes walking distance from the Hotel Vetro. 

Conference attendees will need to make their hotel reservations directly with Hotel Vetro or the Hilton Garden Inn. The Institute will not be involved in making hotel reservations. Reservations at Hotel Vetro can be made only by phone call at (319) 337-4961 by March 1 or at Hilton Garden Inn at (319) 248-6100 and online by February 16. 
​
When making your hotel reservations, you must indicate you are attending the IMMI
Conference. A block of rooms has been reserved at both hotels at a conference rate of $95 per night plus tax.

Individuals are responsible for their own reservations. If you would like to share a room with another attendee as in previous years (which we still encourage due to limited number of available hotel rooms), you need to coordinate with your roommate and arrange for one of   you to make the reservation. If you are looking for a roommate, I recommend posting a notice on the “Grapevine” to that effect and you can team up with someone else who is looking for a roommate.

Important Deadline: Hotel Vetro room reservations must be made by THURSDAY, MARCH 1. We have a block of rooms on reserve but we lose our “hold” after the deadline. Room reservations at Hilton Garden Inn must be made by FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 16th.  We have a block of rooms on reserve but we lose our “hold” and special rate after February 16th.
