Hotel Reservations and Information
Do not book the conference until you have secured your room first!
We will be using the luxurious Loews Portofino Bay Hotel for our Conference Hotel on the Universal Studios property! Hotel guests enjoy spacious guest rooms featuring custom designed furnishings, impeccable and attentive service, swimming pools, and exceptional dining.
Halloween nights are EXTREMELY popular! Last year all hotels in our room block SOLD OUT 2 months early!
All hotels were completely full outside our block as well!
We will have our main hotel, Loews Portofino as our Conference Hotel, where the meeting will be. We will also have 2 overflow hotels (Cabana Bay and Adventura) that are available by Bus, boat, and walking in the Universal Complex. Note that the Portofino is the only hotel that has Express Pass associated with it. The Portofino will likely sell out by May/June 2023, if not sooner!! The Cabana Bay and Adventura hotels are much less expensive and they do have early admissions to the park, but they do NOT have Express Pass included with these hotels! You have the same access with all 3 hotels to City Park, etc.
Portofino Bay Rates: $502/night for Garden View rooms (Note: 2 Queens sells out very quickily)
Cabana Bay and Adventura Rates: $206/night for Run of the House Rooms
