The convention room block is still accepting reservations, but don’t delay as the room block is expected to sell out. An overflow hotel will be announced when the Omni block is full.
Note that the Oregon Hop Growers Association is covering the resort fee for all convention guests at the Omni – so enjoy the resort amenities included in that fee, compliments of the OHGA!
The special convention room rate is $289.00 per night. The usual $42 resort fee is at a cost of $0.00 for our group!
