Located on 23 landscaped acres, the Hilton is across the street from Downtown Disney and also conveniently located less than a mile from Exit 68 off of Interstate 4. The hotel recently underwent a major refurbishing to guest rooms and restaurants. 

In addition to all the restaurants at Downtown Disney, there is an Italian bistro, Japanese steakhouse, a 24-hour deli and market, a casual grill and sports bar in the Hilton.  On Sunday mornings, Disney characters join guests for breakfast in the Hilton's Covington Mill restaurant.  Recreational facilities include two outdoor pools, a spa tub, a children's pool and a fitness center.  

The hotel offers complimentary transportation to all Walt Disney World Theme Parks.  In addition, hotel guests can take advantage of Disney's "Extra Magic Hours" for one-hour early admission or up to three hours extended stay at various Walt Disney World Theme Parks.

We have reserved a limited number of rooms for Saturday, January 15 and Sunday, January 16 at the reduced rate of $159 for single or double occupancy. These rates are available 3 days before and 3 days after the above dates, based on availability. Reservations should be made directly with the hotel by calling their toll-free number (800-782-4414) and asking for the New England Professional Conferences group rate.  The conference rate is available until Friday, December 17, 2010 at 5 pm or until the room block sells out, whichever comes first; after that, rooms will be at the regular retail rate, based on availability.

NEPC will validate and cover the self-parking cost of daytime parking during the lectures on Sunday, January 16.  (Valet parking and overnight parking are available at your own expense.)
