By Phone: all 1-888-236-2427 and mention the group name “ARIL” or “2027 ARIL Conference” to receive the group rate.

Room Booking Deadline
The cut-off date to receive the conference room rate is January 12, 2027, by 5:00pm pacific time, based on availability.  After this date, or if the room block sells out before this date, the discounted rate will no longer be available, and room rates will be at the discretion of the hotel.

In past years, the room block has sold out before the holidays, so we encourage you to book early.

Hotel Cancellation Policy
Cancellations made within 72 hours of arrival will forfeit one night's room and tax. You may cancel your reservation for no charge before 11:59pm local hotel time 3 days prior to your arrival date.

As in previous years, there will be an opportunity to pick up your name badge and join us for our Opening Reception on the evening of Thursday, February 4th.
