Off Campus Accommodations: Congress Hotels


Limited blocks of rooms have been reserved by the Office of Conference Services (OCS) at the hotels and motels listed below. You will need to contact the hotel/motel directly, identify yourself as being a participant at the Fifth US National Congress of Computational Mechanics, and make your own reservations.

These rooms will only be held until the release dates listed below. In order to make a hotel reservation in the block and receive the specified rates, rooms must be reserved prior to the release date. Be sure to mention the name of the US National Congress on Computational Mechanics or USNCCM for short, in all communications with the hotels/motels listed here.

Some callers have reported that at the Marriot the reservation was put under NCCM when calling the 800 number. We have recently reminded Congress hotels to be consistent between local and corporate identifiers.

Please make reservations as soon as possible.

For coordinates with respect to the Congress site please check the location map (PDF). For pictures of facilities, go to the City of Boulder Web site, click on Lodging, then on Online Database.
