Hotel and Travel Information
If you receive a call, email, or fax from a housing organization stating that they are calling on behalf of the ASPHO or that they are the official housing service for the Society, please know that this call is not affiliated with the association. Should you book your reservation outside of the ASPHO room block, the Society will not be able to assist you with any issues you may encounter including: additional fees, harsh cancellation policy, lower quality rooms, and in some cases no reservation. To support our efforts to provide you with a quality event, we ask that you book your housing accommodations using the reservation information for the contracted hotels listed above.

Street Construction in Front of Convention Center--Plan Extra Time
When you arrive in New Orleans and make your way to the Convention Center, you will notice construction on Convention Center Boulevard. You will still be able to catch your shuttle bus, rideshare/Taxi or cross over to the Convention Center. If your hotel is across the street from the Center, be sure to use designated cross walks where crossing guards will be present. Rideshare/Taxi pick up/drop off locations will be clearly identified outside of your hotels as well as at the Convention Center. *Convention Center Boulevard is becoming a tree lined, lushly landscaped park to be completed in the fall of 2020. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
