Housing Information

Please register for the 2010 Ed Expo show before making your hotel reservations. All reservations must be handled through the NSSEA Housing Bureau. Hotels will not honor direct reservations. Reservations can be made through March 9, 2010 by any of the options below. However, please note that for reservations made after February 22, 2010, the NSSEA Housing Bureau cannot guarantee availability of rooms at designated conference hotels at the NSSEA Conference rate.

Ed Expo Housing Notice

You may have been contacted by a company offering hotel rooms in Orlando for ED EXPO. Please note that NSSEA/THE HOUSING CONNECTION is the only OFFICIAL housing provider for ED EXPO and therefore the only company that can sell rooms in our official housing blocks. Housing providers other than NSSEA/THE HOUSING CONNECTION are not able to secure rooms within the official housing blocks. Shuttle service from the hotels to ED EXPO is only provided from hotels within the official block. Other housing providers with similar names are not official housing providers for ED EXPO. The best way to ensure you're booking your hotel into our official housing blocks is to follow the Housing link located on the show web site. If you have any questions or would like to report an incident that has happened to your company, please email us or call (800) 395-5550 x1041.

NSSEA/THE HOUSING CONNECTION will never directly solicit you to book your hotel rooms. If you do receive a telephone call, fax, etc. offering hotel rooms in Orlando, this offer is from one of these other non-affiliated, third party housing vendors.
