The 2006 ASPO-USA conference is being held at Boston University (BU). The University is located in the central Boston metropolitan area, approximately 6 miles west of Logan International Airport, with the Charles River and Cambridge to the north and Boston's baseball stadium (Fenway Park) on the south.
Boston's subway system provides direct access to the BU campus, on one of the westernly Green lines. BU actually has its own stop designated on the subway map. The two closest hotels are accessed via the Kenmore Square stop, one stop to the east of the BU main exit.
This page includes a list of some Boston hotels in order of proximity to the BU facility.
NOTE: There is no formal conference hotel sponsor, though small room blocks may have been reserved as noted. Rates are approximate and may vary. Taxes may be added.
ASPO-USA encourages you to walk or use public transportation whenever possible.
