We encourage you to stay with your colleagues and friends at the official Conference Hotel.

NIRSA relies on strong room block usage to secure conference meeting space, increase negotiation leverage for future conferences, and to help keep overall NIRSA Conference expenses low. When attendees do not utilize the block, it drives up costs for the following year due to financial losses.

Hotel reservations can be made online within the group block by using the website link provided in your conference registration confirmation email. A valid credit card will be needed to secure your hotel reservation.

Multi-room reservations are possible; details can be found by clicking on the hotel registration link in your conference registration confirmation email.

*Rates listed above do not include tax; hotel occupancy tax is 14.5%.

Please note that the Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center is cashless; the front desk, food, retail, parking, and beverage locations accept credit card and mobile payments only. Please come prepared.

Registration for NIRSA 2025 is set to open in December and early bird registration rates will last into mid-February.

If you’re flying, the closest airport is Orlando International Airport which is 19 miles away.
