ISSTA 2004 will be held (together with CAV) at the Omni Parker House Hotel. Rooms will be available at a special conference rate of $159.00 plus tax per night, and these rates will also be active (subject to room availability) from 3 days before up until 3 days after ISSTA/CAV.
To reserve your room, use the Omni Parker House Hotel's online reservation system. This link connects you to an ISSTA/CAV-specific page, on which you should indicate that you are part of the "General Block". You will not need any access code to complete the registration.
Dormitory accomodations will be available at Emerson College, on Boylston Street at the intersection with Tremont, a short walk (5 minutes) from the conference hotel. The rate for the dorm rooms is $51 per night, and rooms can be booked by calling 1-617-824-8554 (Monday--Wednesday, 9am--5pm EST). Rooms are airconditioned with shared bathrooms.
If travelling by air, your most convenient choice of airport is Boston's Logan International Airport. From there you can take a short cab, subway, or rental car trip to the conference hotel.
For further instructions on how to reach the hotel from the airport or by automobile from outside of the city, see our Travel Instructions.
If you don't like the schedules or prices to Logan, there are several other smaller airports within 2 hours drive of Boston, that sometimes have good deals on airfares. These include Manchester, New Hampshire (about 2 hours north), Providence, Rhode Island (about 1.5 hours south), Hartford, Connecticut (about 2.5 hours west), and Worcester, Massachusetts (about 1 hour west).
