Definition of SPIE Block Rooms
SPIE has made every effort to secure the best possible group nightly room rate(s) for you at this event. The rate(s) result from a negotiated overall package of event needs such as sleeping rooms, meeting room space and other requirements. Contracts with the venue include a provision to reduce event costs if SPIE meets or exceeds its minimum sleeping room block guarantee. Conversely, event costs will increase if SPIE falls short of its minimum room block guarantee. Please help SPIE keep the costs of this event as low as possible by booking your housing needs at the designated hotel(s) and through the reservation process created by SPIE. Reserving elsewhere means you are booking outside the contracted room blocks, jeopardizing SPIE's ability to meet its contracted obligations and to keep registration fees to a minimum. SPIE appreciates your support and understanding of this important issue.
SPIE Special Room Rates
A block of rooms at special conference rate has been reserved at the San Diego Marriott Hotel & Marina for symposia attendees. Rooms have one king or two doubles. The conference rate cannot be guaranteed after the room block has filled and will not be honored after the hotel's cut-off date.
Hotel Reservations
To secure a room reservation, requests must be received with a credit card guarantee or a check in the amount of the first night's room plus tax (Tax includes 10.5% occupancy tax + 2% San Diego tourism assessment + $.09 (maximum) per night CA city assessment tax for downtown hotels). Taxes are subject to change. Problems or delays with your payment may affect your hotel request.
Reservations can be made directly with the hotel. You are encouraged to make your reservations early as rooms at convention rates can sell out quickly.
