An important update regarding room availability at the Marriott
Take a deep breath...If you’re planning on staying overnight while you attend the Southern California Genealogy Jamboree and Genetic Genealogy 2016 conferences, and you haven’t made your hotel reservations yet, then you might want to stop what you are doing and read through the end of this blog post.
Every year, Jamboree reserves blocks of rooms at the Marriott at both the regular hotel and concierge levels. We try, as early as January, to advise everyone that both the conference rates and the rooms will book quickly.
Here’s where we stand at the moment
All Jamboree rooms at the Los Angeles Marriott Burbank Airport Hotel are sold out, for both regular SCGS conference rooms and SCGS concierge rooms Wednesday, June 1 - Sunday, June 5.
This truly is "breaking news" and it caught everyone - including the hotel and the Jamboree committee - off guard. We appreciate your patience and your understanding as we cope with the abundance.
There may be rooms available at a higher rate. Please check with the Marriott if staying at the conference location is of utmost importance to you. If, however, you were waiting....our best advice is to book your second choice hotel now (a suggested list is below) and to keep calling the Marriott and inquiring if there is availability. The number is (818) 843-6000 or toll free at (800) 736-9712. When calling, please mention the group SCGS Conference. They will advise you of the most current room availability and pricing.
