Al‑Anon Room Block
The Al‑Anon program will be held at the Convention Center, with one evening session occurring at the connected DoubleTree hotel.
The A.A. program will be held in The Clyde hotel directly across the corner from the Convention Center.
Al‑Anon has negotiated reasonable room rates that are dependent on members reserving housing through the International Convention Housing Room Block, this helps the registration fee remain as low as possible.
The room rates range from $124 to $189 a night.
Reserve your hotel room early to be close to all the action.
