Hotel Accommodations

For the 2022 CSTE Annual Conference, if we host an in-person event, CSTE will utilize Orchid Events for housing services to assist attendees with new reservations, modifications, and cancellations. Hotel accommodations can only be secured at a group block hotel after registering for the conference. Hotels will not accept reservations directly. However, for travel approval process needs, hotels in the group block range in price at a rate of $179 to $229 per night plus local tax (currently 16.07%).  

Information on hotels will be accessible through the registration system after you have registered for the conference. Attendees that register for the conference before hotel accommodations are available will receive communications first if and when hotel accommodations open for registration. 

Meeting Location

All in-person conference sessions will be held at the Kentucky International Convention Center (KICC) or the Omni Louisville Hotel. Suggested attire is business casual for all conference activities. We strongly suggest bringing a light sweater or jacket with you to the conference. 

Weather

In June, average high temperatures in the mid–80s. Weather in the summer in Louisville can be very hot and humid. Bright, light clothing is highly advised. Meeting rooms are air conditioned and layered clothing, such as a sweater or jacket, is also recommended.
