Accommodations and Fees
The Institute will be housed at the Doubletree Guest Suites next to the Harvard University campus and overlooking the picturesque Charles River. We are confident that you will find these quarters comfortable and attractive. Resident participants stay in two-room suites featuring a large living room with sofa bed, separate bedroom with king-size bed (or two oversized twin beds), oversized bathroom, wet bar, refrigerator, and internet access.
Please note that the Doubletree has a limited number of sleeping rooms with two beds. Some participants will be assigned to suites with only one king-size bed and a living room sofa bed. Twin bed rooms will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Single rooms are available for an additional fee.
The resident fee of $1,890 is based on double occupancy; please indicate any roommate preferences if you know someone attending the Institute. Otherwise roommates will be paired based on smoking preferences. Single rooms are available for an additional fee of $500 for the week.
