Important information about Parking

 

The NMRA room block at the Hilton Milwaukee City Center (the convention hotel) is reported to be SOLD-OUT on Thursday and Friday of convention week (July 15 & 16).  Due to the strong response to our convention, plus the other events and activities going on in downtown Milwaukee that weekend, we are unable to contract for more rooms on Thursday and Friday.  There are some rooms still available in the NMRA room block for other days during the convention week at the Hilton, but space is limited. Check with the Hilton hotel for last minute cancellations as some rooms may become available for these nights because of cancelations.

 

 

 

The Marriott Courtyard in downtown has agreed to give us KING rooms with a couch that opens into a bed for the week at $139 a night. (Double / Double bedded rooms are not available.)

However, there must be a 5 night room commitment to get this rate.
