ORS housing is now closed. We look forward to seeing you in Tampa! 

Discounted room rates have been secured at area hotels for ORS attendees in Tampa, all within walking distance of the Convention Center where the meeting will be held. Now more than ever, it is important that all  attendees stay in an ORS designated hotel and book through our website. The society cannot afford to pay a financial penalty for unused hotel rooms that the hotels have put aside for our attendees. We appreciate your support by booking in our block.

ConferenceDirect is the only approved housing agency for the ORS Annual Meeting. If you are contacted by anyone other than ConferenceDirect, do not reserve with them. They are not the official housing provider of ORS.

Watch out for scams! No one from the ORS housing company will be calling you to make your room reservation.  If someone calls you – this is a scam.  Be careful, housing “pirates” are more than happy to take your money, and leave you with no room in which to stay.

If you have any questions regarding the ORS hotel block or questions about your reservation please contact Conference Direct, [email protected]
