Hotels
We have also reserved blocks of rooms at nearby hotels. You may check out the hotels and their amenities at their respective website. Reserve with them directly, using the code "Birds" or "Birds 2001" to ensure conference rates are honored. (Please be aware that rates for hotel rooms do NOT include tax, currently at 15.6%.)

Please be aware that this is prime time for Seattle tourism, so these blocks of rooms will be released 30-60 days prior to the conference. To ensure you have a place to stay, BOOK EARLY.

This hotel is the farthest (about four miles) from campus, but very convenient to the freeway. While the Ramada has its own courtesy van that shuttles guests both to the University and downtown sights, the conference is working with the hotel to provide an additional conference-specific courtesy van delivery to campus once in the morning, and return to the hotel once in the evening.


In addition, UW has a list of RV parks. Neither AOU, University of Washington, nor the Local Committee can endorse any of these establishments, but provide this as information only.
