ACCOMMODATIONS
The host hotel is Renaissance Hotel Austin located at 9721 Arboretum Blvd., Austin, TX 78759. This year we are making a change to how the room block works. Please read the below sections that pertain to your exhibitor level to know more:
SPONSORS: A select number of rooms will be held for sponsors on a trial basis this year. The number of rooms available to you, at the cost of your company, are listed under the sponsor levels. As you secure your sponsorships, we will send over a hotel reservation form to book your room(s). You will only receive access to the number of rooms listed in your sponsorship level; all other rooms will be placed on a waitlist. Rooms are subject to being sold out at any time, and a listed number of rooms is not guaranteed once the block is full.
VENDORS WHO ARE NOT SPONSORING: Room blocks will not open until March 4, 2020 for calls from vendors who are not sponsoring. Call (512) 343-2626 to make a reservation. For hotel reservations request a room in the “Tax Assessor-Collectors Association” room block to receive our special group rate. The hotel blocks typically fill quickly for this conference. If you do not make it into the block and would like to be added to the waitlist, please contact Megan West at meganw@county.org.
Reservations must be guaranteed by a major credit card or first night’s full deposit. Reservations cancelled after 6 p.m. one day prior to arrival will be assessed one night’s room and tax. Hotel check-in time is 3:00 p.m. and check-out time is 12 noon.
Additionally there are two overflow hotels for this conference:
Hyatt House
10001 North Capital of Texas Hwy
Austin, TX 78759
(512) 342-8080
Room rate: $119
TownePlace Suites
10024 North Capital of Texas Hwy
Austin, TX 78759
(512) 231-9360
Room rate: $139
If you are unable to make it into the host hotel or overflow hotels, click here to see a list of hotels that offer shuttle service to the Renaissance. TACA does not have a room block at any hotels not listed above, so a negotiated room rate through the Association will not be available.
