Hotel Accommodations

Please book your hotel early!

The demand for hotel rooms in State College during the weekend of the 2024 TLT Symposium is extremely high this year.  The hotel block at the Hampton Inn is now full.

10 guest rooms have been blocked at the Penn Stater Hotel & Conference Center at a rate of $179 plus fees to supplement the hotel block at the Hampton Inn. 

Guests can make their own reservations until 12:01 AM on Wednesday, February 21, 2024. Guests can either contact Central Reservations directly by calling 814-863-5000 and referencing Group Code “TLTS24,” or by using the Penn Stater’s secure website at https://thepennstaterhotel.com/. Individual attendees are responsible for all guestroom charges. All individual reservation cancellations received within 24 hours of arrival date are subject to a cancellation fee equivalent to a one-night stay. 

*Note: the Symposium will be held in a different location than the hotel. Attendees will have a short drive to the Business Building for the Symposium. 

Hotel stays will only be reimbursed up to $199 plus fees for the night of March 22, 2024.
