ALA Symposium “American Poetry”
March 26-28, 2026
Salem, MA
Our conference hotel, The Hawthorne Hotel, offers a charming setting in a central location in Salem and claims to be the most haunted hotel in America. You can make a reservation by:
Calling 978-744-4080 and referencing the ALA Symposium on Poetry
OR online at www.hawthornehotel.com and Clicking on Book Groups & Weddings (at bottom of the page)
Use Group Code: APO326 for our conference rate of $189 per night plus taxes.
Please note that our room block will be released on March 4, 2026, but I expect the block to be filled long before then.
Our overflow and alternative hotel, the Hampton Inn in Salem, is a pleasant ten-minute walk to the conference hotel. The Hampton Inn may be an attractive alternative to those who prefer a more modern hotel or want to collect Hilton points.
You can make your reservation by calling 800-HAMPTON or with the booking link: https://www.hilton.com/en/book/reservation/deeplink/?ctyhocn=BOSSAHX&groupCode=CHHAPG&arrivaldate=2026-03-26&departuredate=2026-03-28&flexibleDates=true&cid=OM,WW,HILTONLINK,EN,DirectLink&fromId=HILTONLINKDIRECT
The Hampton rate averages $179 per night plus taxes and a charge for parking.
