If you're planning on registering for SXSW, make reservations for your hotel early. Hotel bookings for SXSWeek fill up early with industry professionals, exhibitors, entrepreneurs and the general public. Fortunately, hosts of the event make it easy for you.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Step1
Go to the SXSW website and access the section to book your hotel. You'll want to register first to find out if space is available for the panel sessions you're interested in.
Step2
Follow the instructions in the shopping cart that lead to the hotel names and photos for reservation.
Step3
Submit your hotel request in the same transaction. When you print you'll have your registration and hotel itinerary on the same page for convenience. The SXSW host will not charge an advance deposit but some of the hotels may require it when the credit card information is forwarded.
Step4
Print the pages of the different hotel booking options if you don't know where you want to stay yet. The site allows for sorting on price, distance and hotel name. You can always return later to book the room.
Step5
Read the special section regarding the guaranteed rates secured by the SXSW hosts. Even if you choose to make the hotel reservation without the site, request the special rate from that particular hotel.

Tips & Warnings

  • If you don't want to register through the website a phone number and fax are also provided on the site for your convenience.
