Importance of Booking Inside the RIMS Housing Block

It has come to our attention that several attendees have been contacted by housing vendors who are offering to provide room nights and housing services at the RIMS Annual Conference & Exhibition. While these companies may have secured blocks of rooms at various hotels, they are not the official housing provider for the conference.

RIMS has again contracted with OnPeak (formerly Ambassadors, LLC) to be the sole housing company for RIMS 2010. It is important to note that our participating hotels are contractually obligated to accept room night commitments as it pertains to RIMS 2010 only from OnPeak. Booking through the official housing company has a wide range of benefits. Securing accommodations through the official room block ensures the most competitive rates, access to official shuttle bus transportation, and added protection from "walks" in an oversold situation.

Please be aware that securing rooms with any company other than OnPeak is at your own risk. There have been many instances in the past when similar companies have gone out of business after taking the reservation and deposit, leaving individuals without hotel rooms and lost deposits.

Reserve Hotel Accommodations

Boston offers an array of accommodations, from luxurious high-rises to historic hotels. Recommended hotels offer special discounts and amenities for conference attendees. OnPeak will process and confirm your hotel arrangements. View information on the properties and book your accommodations with our quick and easy online reservation system. 

Please note: Reservations must be made by March 26, 2010. Negotiated discounts may no longer apply at that date.

• In the event that your hotel choice is no longer available, OnPeak will suggest comparable accommodations.
• All reservations, cancellations or changes for designated hotels must be made via OnPeak. If there are discrepancies with reservations, designated venues will honor housing information received through our housing bureau.
