The
Redmond Inn is a cozy, comfortable hotel located just a few miles from the NHS offices and training facility. The Inn features newly remodeled guest rooms, complimentary high-speed internet access and a friendly, courteous staff that will make you feel right at home.
We have reserved a block of rooms at the Redmond Inn at the discount rate of $129/night Monday - Thursday and $99/night Friday - Sunday (plus taxes). To reserve your room, please contact the Redmond Inn at (800) 634-8080 or request your reservation via email at

Be sure to tell them that you are with NewHaven Software to qualify for the discount rate. Redmond is approximately 24 miles from the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Shuttle service is available to/from the airport via ShuttleExpress for $28.00 per person (less if more than one person is traveling at the same time - see
www.shuttleexpress.com for details). A rental car is recommended if you want to get out and explore the greater Seattle area. Redmond Inn is a short distance from our offices, and we will provide shuttle service to/from the hotel each day.
Travel to/from Redmond:
Our offices are located just off Highway 520 in Redmond and are easy to find. We will include complete driving directions from major interstates and Sea-Tac airport in your registration package.
Most major airlines currently have fare sales in effect, and we have chosen our session dates carefully to avoid black-out dates and holiday travel. The only major airport in the area is Seattle - Tacoma International (OAG airport code SEA), which serves most major and many regional airlines.
We will begin each day of training at 9:00 AM sharp - so if you're coming to Redmond from out of the area, we suggest that you arrive the night before. We expect to wrap up training each day around 5:00 PM, but could run later depending on questions and group activity. If you are planning on departing from Sea-Tac airport the last day of the training, we recommend reserving flights after 7 PM or the following morning.
Special Events:
During each session, we usually plan a no-host dinner out on one of the nights, so keep your plans flexible! We'll decide where and when to go on the first day of training. This is often the highlight of the training experience, as those attending have an opportunity to get to know one another better and can network and socialize in an unstructured, relaxed environment.
Meals:
We will provide continental breakfast (starting at 8:30 AM each day), lunches, snacks and refreshments during each day of training. We routinely receive praise for the quality and quantity of food we serve during training. Dinners are up to you. If you have a favorite "brain food" or beverage you'd enjoy during the day, let us know! Please also let us know when you register if you prefer vegetarian or special meals, so we can prepare accordingly.
The Last Word:
(Actually two)
REGISTER EARLY!
We have limited seating and equipment available. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive, worthwhile and enjoyable training experience. By registering early you not only save money, but you have a much better chance of actually getting a seat! Our training sessions usually sell out quickly. Your best bet is to register for the most convenient session TODAY, before it slips your mind. Don't forget to take advantage of the airfare specials and advance fares by booking your flights as soon as possible. See you soon in Redmond!
