Stay at the Conference Hotel and be a part of it all...

Hotel Information
The hotel rates negotiated by HGA include many benefits for you and our organization. Based on the number of rooms we reserve and occupy; the hotel provides complimentary meeting room space – savings that are passed on to attendees through HGA’s registration rates. If the Convergence® conference is unable to meet its commitment because attendees are making reservations at other hotels, HGA is charged a fee to make up for lost revenue. If this becomes a trend, HGA would be forced to increase the registration fee and cut services.
Rates do not include taxes. Parking rates vary by hotel and are subject to change. Amenities vary by type of room.
Call the HGA office (678-730-0010) for assistance selecting a hotel. We have toured each and can answer questions about amenities, location, comfort, etc. When making your reservation by phone, be sure to mention you are with HGA and attending Convergence.
