Provo Travel & Lodging
Lodging
We have a block of rooms reserved at the Best Western Plus University Inn, 1600 N Freedom Blvd in Provo.
The conference rate is $159/night for either a double queen or a king room. To book your room, call 801-373-2222 and ask for the Applied Rhetoric Symposium rate.
The hotel is 1.5 miles from the Utah Valley Convention Center. It is very walkable, but it is also on the main bus route. We will also have a shuttle running in the morning and evening between the hotel and the conference venue.
Getting to Provo
According to our man on the ground, Jacob Rawlins, Provo also has an airport (code PVU) where SOME people from SOME locations can SOMETIMES get good deals. It looks like Allegiant Air will get you there.
Otherwise, Salt Lake City is the easiest airport (code SLC). Instructions for traveling from Salt Lake City to Provo by car and train are available from the Utah Valley Conference Center. Express Shuttle Utah offers shared rides for about $35.00.
While You're In Provo
If you plan to add an extra day to your trip, the Utah Valley Convention and Visitor's Bureau can suggest restaurants, shopping, outdoor activities, and cultural events.
