Accommodations
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL OF THESE HOTELS ARE NOW SOLD OUT.
The Linux Foundation has secured room blocks and discounted room rates at three local hotels for the Collaboration Summit. Please make reservations early – room availability is not guaranteed.
When contacting any of these hotels to make your reservation, please ask for the group rate listed for each hotel to receive the discounted rates.
Each of these hotels offers suite accommodations, allowing for easy room-sharing opportunities.
We highly encourage you to book your accommodations at one of these recommended hotels as they each provide shuttle service to The Commons Conference Complex. Please note that although each hotel provides shuttle service, the shuttles are small, and will require a number of trips to get everyone over the The Commons Center and back.

About the Area:
Austin is just simply not like the rest of Texas. From the quirky cast of characters that populate Congress Avenue to burnt orange-clad University of Texas students, bats to Longhorns, four-star restaurants to down-home barbecue joints, corporate CEOs to struggling musicians, Texas' capital city stands apart from the rest.
It's hip and trendy, yet in a vintage sort of way. It's high-tech and laid-back. It's politically charged and culturally rich. It's eclectic by nature and creative by design. Most of all, it's a place where people like to have a good time. Austin Visitor Information
