A quick note about rooms for the SMU Steel Summit Conference: The Atlanta Airport Marriott Gateway hotel only has 20-25 rooms left on our room block. Once the room block is complete, we will not be able to add any more rooms and the rates for that hotel will be at Marriott’s discretion. The Atlanta Airport Renaissaince Gateway hotel also has about 20-25 rooms remaining. The Atlanta Airport SpringHill Suites Gateway hotel has about 50 rooms available. We expect these rooms to all be gone within the next two or three weeks – months before the conference is to begin. We are going to add a fourth hotel, a Marriott, which is located a couple of miles from the convention center. We are working with Marriott to have a bus that will go back and forth between the hotel and the convention center. We will advise more details on this hotel when we are close to being completely sold out of the Gateway hotels. You can book the hotels by using the following Marriott reservation number: 800-236-2427 and ask for the Steel Market Update group rate.

As always, your business is truly appreciated by all of us here at Steel Market Update.
