Two hotels options are available for your stay this year.

The Philadelphia Marriott Downtown is the home of NAMIC's Annual Convention right in the heart of Philly.

Many of the attractions are within steps of the hotel front doors.

The second hotel is Marriott's Courtyard Philadelphia Downtown. The hotel opened after a grand $75 million restoration, recapturing the grandeur of its 1926 origins and placing it among the premier hotels in Philadelphia. This 18-story, 498-room Philadelphia hotel, listed on the "National Register of Historic Places", stands as a charming testament to time and now integrates state-of-the-art systems with unique architectural details like coffered plaster, stunning bronze work and striking marble finishes.

Upon registering with NAMIC, you will be provided with information on how to make a room reservation with the hotel.
