Great Deals in Atlanta for Conference Attendees

Come early or stay late and bring the whole family with you to SSTI's 16th Annual Conference, October 29-30. Atlanta has the biggest aquarium, the coolest Coca Cola Museum, and some of the best golf in the U.S. Outdoor activities that celebrate nature, like the Atlanta Botanical Garden and Piedmont Park abound, as does high culture — from art museums to great shopping. You could spend a month in Atlanta without doing the same thing twice.

While there are options all over the city, many are just steps away the Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center's front door. Conference attendees receive a special room rate of $159 until October 8, or while supply lasts. To get the most out of your time in Atlanta, these outstanding rates will be honored five days before and after the conference.

The great rates don't stop there. Below is an array of special discounts and inexpensive options for many of Atlanta's top attractions:

• The Georgia Aquarium is offering all attendees a special discount available at: www.georgiaaquarium.org/ssti to tour the entire Aquarium. And, don't forget everyone will have the opportunity to enjoy the beluga whales in the Aquarium's Arctic Room during the Opening Reception on Sunday, October 28.
• If you are thinking about bringing your clubs, the recent Golf Digest article Members Mostly highlights four economical course options and provides an insider's perspective of the area.
• The Legoland Discovery Center opened earlier this year and offers a wealth of attractions, two rides, 4D cinema and more. Tickets are available online right now for only $12.50 plus tax.
• Purchasing a CityPASS can save visitors up to 45 percent on admission to 5 must-see Atlanta attractions. The Georgia Aquarium, World of Coca Cola, Inside CNN Studio Tour, High Museum of Art, Fernbank Museum of Natural History, Zoo Atlanta and the Atlanta History Center are all CITYPASS options.
