Inn at Penn

The Inn at Penn will be the official hotel for ACL-02. Though a commercial hotel, the Inn is located in the very heart of Penn campus and has a distinctly academic feel. We have blocked rooms at this newly opened four-diamond hotel at a special rate of $119.00 per night (single or double). Please mention ACL when calling to make your reservation. To receive the special rate, you must call between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., or ask for the Central reservations after 5:00 p.m. E.S.T. Unfortunately, the group rate is not available if you make online reservations, you must call the hotel directly to get the special rate. The rooms we have blocked will be released after June 14, 2002. Contact Information:
