CANCELLATION POLICY: To receive a refund of your deposit, including credit card deposit transactions, the hotel must receive notice of cancellation from you at least 72 hours prior to check-in (4:00pm MST) on the scheduled day of arrival in order to avoid a cancellation fee. Any reservation cancelled less than 72 hours before scheduled arrival will be assessed a fee equal to one night room rate and tax.
While early reservations are recommended to take advantage of discounted rates, please be sure to cancel your reservations prior to Thursday, August 17, 2023 if you are unable to attend or you cannot use the reservations. This will make the rooms available for other attendees and will help ISHI avoid the financial penalties associated with cancellations made after the room block closes. Rooms MUST be booked before Thursday, August 24, 2023 in order to book at the conference rate (assuming rooms are still available until the closing of the rooming block).
