2017 PPS Chicago Conference Hotel Rundown

With the 2017 PPS Annual Conference only a couple weeks away (November 1 – 4), now’s the time to double-check that you’ve got your lodging all straightened out. There’s nothing worse than arriving in a city to find that you’ve forgotten to book a hotel room.  Pick the right hotel and you’ll be living it up in the lap of luxury, wait too long, and you may find yourself sharing a bathroom with a tourist named Hans.

We’ve done the research on the hotels recommended by the conference and put together a quick snapshot of what they each offer conference attendees.
