Hotel & Group Rate Info
Important: Use Official Booking Links Provided By FAOG Only
Please be aware that you may receive unsolicited emails from third parties offering hotel reservations for the FAOG conference. These are NOT affiliated with FAOG or The Grand America Hotel. The Grand America Hotel is the only hotel contracted with FAOG for a group rate. For security and to access the official group rate, we encourage you to book only through the link on our website or through emails sent from a faogcf.org address.
Room Block Update: Monday & Wednesday Nights at Capacity
Rooms under the FAOG room block are currently at capacity for Monday night (September 21) and Wednesday night (September 23). If you are staying for the full conference, we encourage you to:
- Book directly with the Grand America for those nights if rooms are available. Rooms booked directly are not part of our room block and the FAOG group rate will not apply.
- Check back on the group booking link periodically — rooms are occasionally released back into the block as plans change.
- Consider the Little America Hotel, located just across the street from the Grand America. Please note FAOG does not have a room block or special rate at this hotel.
The FAOG group rate remains available for the other conference nights through our official booking link below.

2026 FAOG Conference Venue
Why the Grand America?
The Grand America Hotel is one of Salt Lake City's premier properties. With a timeless European-inspired design, the hotel offers an ideal backdrop for productive meetings and a memorable conference experience. This property came highly recommended by FAOG members who experienced it firsthand at another conference — and their enthusiasm inspired us to bring the FAOG community here.
Located in the heart of Salt Lake City with sweeping views of the Wasatch Range, the property gives conference attendees a sophisticated yet comfortable space to learn, connect, and recharge.
We can't wait for September.

Grand Rooms to Match a Grand Experience
The Grand America lives up to its name in every room. Featuring elegant European-inspired decor, spacious layouts, and impeccable service, your accommodations will be as memorable as the conference itself.
At just $309/night through our group block, this is an exceptional value for a hotel of this caliber. This hotel is unique as community foundations across the country are and you've never seen a conference hotel like the Grand America!
