Official Congress Hotels
Hilton Anchorage Hotel (HEADQUARTERS HOTEL)
Howard Johnson Plaza - Sold Out
Westmark Hotel 
Both the Hilton Anchorage and the Howard Johnson Plaza are very conveniently located right in the middle of Anchorage and in the midst of all the conference activities. Stay at one of them and you won't miss out on a minute of the invaluable networking time. You'll also be able to walk to excellent shopping, restaurants, museums and entertainment, so no rental car needed, unless you're planning a wilderness escape on your own!
When phoning for reservations for either hotel, be sure to ask for the EWRI World Water & Environmental Resources Congress '05 Block to assure that you will find a room at these hotels and get the group rates.
The Hilton Anchorage Hotel and the Howard Johnson Plaza were chosen for you for this congress for their convenient locations, the quality of the facilities and services, and the value rates negotiated for this conference.
Our Congress session space depends on your patronage of these room blocks. Because of this, our contractual agreement with the Hilton Anchorage Hotel and the Howard Johnson Plaza Anchorage, and because we heartily believe that staying at one of the Congress hotels is part of your Congress experience, Congress organizers recommend these hotels exclusively.
