Hotel
We encourage all guests to stay at this hotel as we've arranged a room block and secured a rate for your convenience. We ask that all guests reserve their rooms as soon as possible as this will help us to achieve our goal room block percentage and avoid extra fees. Payments are not due until check in. The room block is for October 3rd - 5th. You do have the option of choosing one night instead of two (i.e. just the 3rd or just the 4th). You also have the option of extending outside the room block dates for the same rate. If you choose to extend, you just need to book a room through the link provided and then contact the hotel to extend your dates. Click “View” below to book your room. You may also call the Central Reservations Office at 1-888-236-2427 and reference the King-Iman Wedding, October 4, 2025.
