How to Get There:

We recommend you stay at the campus hotel to get the most out of your Conference! You can also drive or take public transit – there is a bus and a shuttle that go to NIU from the Metra UP-W Elburn station. See below for hotel and transit info!

Hotel Policy:

There is a 24-hour cancellation policy. If a guest does not show up or calls within 24 hours of our 4 pm check-in they are subject to a charge of first night’s room and tax.

Check-in time is 4 pm and our check-out time is 11 am. If a guest requests an early check-in or late check-out there is an additional charge of $10 per extended hour. If the check-out time they request reaches or exceeds 4 pm, an additional night is charged to the guest.

Parking is not included in reservations. The visitor lot off Carroll Ave is open for guest use. It is monitored from 7 am-4 pm Monday-Friday. During these times, a guest needs to purchase a visitor pass directly from the NIU parking services website. If a guest is staying on the weekends, a parking pass is not needed.

Public Transit

The Metra UP-W line will get you to Elburn, and then you can take the Elburn Shuttle (Route 12 of the Huskie bus line). Pickup and dropoff are at Locust and Normal; find more info about getting to and from the NIU campus here. Pay close attention to when the first and last buses and trains run!
