Stay where the action is!

Located in the heart of downtown Austin, JW Marriott is not only home to the conference, but just a 15-minute drive from the Austin International airport and steps away from the best attractions and entertainment in the city. This upscale, modern hotel boasts celebrated dining, a rooftop pool, luxurious spa and the largest guestrooms in downtown Austin. Click here for more information on the JW Marriott.

Group Room Rate

There are a limited number of rooms available at the 2020 GRC Group Room Rate and reservations will be handled on a first come-first served basis. All reservations made after the deadline or after the room block fills, whichever comes first are subject to space and rate availability. In order to guarantee hotel reservations, guests will be required to provide credit card. Please note, credit card may be charged if reservation is cancelled after the deadline.

Help Us to Help You!

For the best possible experience, ISACA & The IIA strongly encourages conference delegates to stay at one of the host hotels listed above. They are the most convenient locations for attendees to be as close as possible to all conference activities at a negotiated price. In addition, every reservation made for those attending the GRC Conference helps ISACA & The IIA fulfill its commitment to the hotel, in turn allowing ISACA & The IIA to continue to keep the cost of both conference fees and membership dues as low as possible.

Please note: Neither ISACA nor The IIA will never contact you with guest room promotions offering a better deal. With the advent of discount aggregators or housing "pirates," if you experience a problem with a "pirate" reservation, ISACA & The IIA cannot assist you. However, please know that ISACA & The IIA staff will work with you to resolve issues that may arise if you make your reservation through the ISACA & The IIA provided housing registration link.
