Joint Mathematics Meetings
The Joint Mathematics Meetings is aware of the picket line in front of the Marriott Copley Hotel in Boston; however it has no involvement with any labor disputes with this property. The Marriott Copley was contracted for this meeting in 2007 and honoring this contract is necessary for the success of this meeting and in no way indicates any agreement with or disrespect for either side of this dispute.

How to Reserve a Room

New reservations and changes and cancellations to reservations must now be made directly with the hotels. If you encounter any problems with the hotels, please contact the MMSB.

Reserving a room with a roommate? For your convenience, a search board has been set up at jointmathematicsmeetings.org/jmm-bboards to help you find a roommate. See Frequently Asked Questions for best practices to use when reserving a room with a roommate.

Support the JMM

We appreciate your support by staying in official JMM hotels. Your patronage of the official Meetings hotels enables the JMM to secure the meeting space at a greatly reduced cost which helps to keep the cost of the meeting and your registration fees down.

General Hotel Practices

Participants should be aware that most hotels are starting to charge a penalty fee to guests for departure changes made before or after guests have checked into their rooms. These hotels are indicated on the hotel page. Participants should also inquire about this at check-in and make their final plans accordingly.

Participants should also be aware that it is general hotel practice in most cities to hold a nonguaranteed reservation until 6:00 p.m. only. When one guarantees a reservation by paying a deposit or submitting a credit card number as a guarantee in advance, however, the hotel will usually honor this reservation until checkout time the following day. If the individual holding the reservation has not checked in by that time, the room is then released for sale, and the hotel retains the deposit or applies a room charge to the credit card number submitted equivalent to a one-night stay.

If you hold a guaranteed reservation at a hotel but are informed upon arrival that there is no room for you, there are certain things you can request the hotel do. First, they should provide for a room at another hotel in town for that evening at no charge. (You already paid for the first night when you made your deposit.) Second, they should pay for taxi fares to the other hotel that evening and back to the hotel the following morning, assuming a room is available. Third, they should pay for one telephone call so that you can notify people of where you are staying. The hotel should make every effort to find a room for you in their hotel the following day and, if successful, pay your taxi fares to and from the second hotel so that you can pick up your baggage and bring it to the first hotel. Not all hotels in all cities follow this practice, so your request for these services may bring mixed results or none at all. If you did not receive satisfactory service in this regard, please inform the Housing Coordinator for this meeting.
