Hotel and Travel

The ABA Annual Meeting will be held at the Hilton Chicago, 720 S. Michigan Ave, Chicago, IL 60605.

Guest rooms are priced at $289 for single/double occupancy plus applicable taxes and includes the daily resort fee. Additional people in the room are subject to additional fees.  Rooms at this rate are subject to availability and will be reserved on a first-come, first-served basis until March 1, 2024 or until sold out.

Please note: The ABA has negotiated special room rates for our meeting; these special room rates are only available to ABA attendees. In exchange for the negotiated room rates, ABA has certain minimum contractual obligations with each hotel. Therefore, it is important that we fill room blocks we have contracted for, so there are not financial liabilities to the Association. The ABA passes along these savings to attendees and exhibitors.
