Illini Union Hotel
Hotel WebsiteThe Illini Union Hotel is by far the most convenient location for attendees. It is a 2 minute walk to Noyes Laboratory. The room rate includes free parking, free internet, and a $5 breakfast voucher to any of the vendors in the Union. The hotel was completely renovated in 2009 with new beds and furnishings. There is no pool or spa (there is a workout room); however, you may ask for free passes to the campus recreation facilities (the nearest is about 1/2 mile away). We were able to block more rooms this year, but we still suggest you book early for best availability.
