The ACM SIGCOMM has a contractual obligation to fill a guaranteed block of rooms at the Grand Hyatt. Significant financial penalties will be assessed should SIGCOMM 2008 fall short of the expected number of guest rooms committed. By staying at the conference hotel, you will enjoy the convenience of residing at the conference venue and to a far greater extent provide valued assistance in support of SIGCOMM's financial obligations.
