Visual Connections New York 2010

Lodging options in New York

Visual Connections is being held at a beautiful, independent venue rather than a hotel with a convention center. Therefore we are unfortunately not in a position to negotiate discounted hotel rates. You may be eligible for discounts at major hotel chains if you are a member of AAA or AARP. Ask for a discounted rate and see what you can negotiate.

Some booking agents you may want to try include:

• Travelocity
• Orbitz
• Expedia
• hotels.com
• alpharooms.com
• Citysearch
• Priceline (if you name your own price and you're flexible about location you can often get a great deal)
