Gurney's Newport Resort
We return to the Goat Island in Newport where Gurney's Resort bought the Hyatt Regency, the site of our 2016 Southern New England Energy Conference. Located on Goat Island in Newport, RI, the hotel is surrounded by water on all sides and is one of the premier resorts in New England. If you prefer to reserve by telephone, instead of reserving online, you can call (401) 851-3366 and use the promo code SNEG to get the $199 rate.
OUR BLOCK AT GURNEY'S EXPIRED FRIDAY, AUG. 25. A NEW BLOCK AT THE NEWPORT MARRIOTT IS SET UP.
As noted, while our block at Gurney's has expired, you can still use the link for hotel reservations at Gurney's below for non-block standard rates, where you will see a whole page of different options once you go to the conference reservation website, and the lowest rate we've seen (as of Sep. 6) was $314 for Monday night, Sep. 18. But note below that we negotiated a better rate at the nearby Marriott.
We've just negotiated a new room block of 20 additional rooms with the Newport Marriott, where we held our conference two years ago. It's only about half a mile from Gurney's, and as we know from two years ago it was wonderfully remodeled. The rate there is less than what you can get at Gurney's now - $239 (+tax, but no resort fees). THIS BLOCK WILL EXPIRE ON WED., SEP. 6. CLICK ON THE MARRIOTT BUTTON TO RESERVE AT THE MARRIOTT, WHILE ROOMS LAST or call the Marriott at 800-228-9290 and mention "Southern New England Energy" to get the $239 rate. Ten rooms remain at the Marriott as of 11 AM on Sep. 6. And as mentioned you're always welcome to book at Gurney's for convenience but at a higher rate if you prefer that (posted rate of $314 as of Sep. 6)
