Convention attendees have the opportunity for special convention rates at four premier hotels around the Grand Wayne Convention Center: the Courtyard by Marriott, Hampton Inn & Suites and Hilton that are connected to the convention center, and the nearby Bradley Hotel.
All reservations must include the core dates of Wednesday, August 5 through Saturday, August 8. The Hilton will allow convention rates August 3-10. The Courtyard and Hampton Inn provide convention rates August 4-9 and the Bradley August 5-8.
Reservations at all four hotels will open Friday September 19, 2025 at 12 PM (noon) EDT. When reservations open, there will be a link on this page for your chosen hotel or you can call the hotel directly. Reservations for the hotels must be made by July 14, 2026 to guarantee the convention rate.
Please note there will be a limit on rooms that can be reserved in each contact to ensure everyone has a chance for a room and the quoted room rates do not include taxes or any hotel imposed fees. If you have any questions about such taxes or fees, please discuss that with a hotel representative when making your reservation.
Please note: In addition to room fees and taxes, the hotels will place a hold of up to $50 per day on the credit card being used to pay the bill; all hotel rooms are smoke-free and carry up to a $500 fee for violating that policy.
Hope you have a great stay.

A true reflection of the city it calls home, The Bradley is immersed in the genuine spirit of community, industry and creativity that abounds beyond its walls.

What better way to do so than create her own beautiful hotel?
From Birdie’s rooftop bar to its thoughtfully designed rooms and locally sourced art, The Bradley effortlessly combines comfort and creativity to tell its story and that of Fort Wayne.
