Does the hotel have a restaurant?

Yes, Embassy Suites in Denton has an on-site restaurant and bar: Houlihan's They  are open for lunch and dinner. They specialize in American cuisine. 

There is also a coffee shop/cafe located inside the hotel.





Who can check in for the Chapter?

The registration desk gets pretty crowded if the entire chapter walks up to register. It blocks the hallway. We prefer that one or two people come up and let us know who all is in attendance and pickup their bags and shirts.


What is the dress code for the banquet?

We encourage you to dress nicely for the banquet. It is our way of celebrating and making the evening feel special. Dress in your "Easter Sunday best", as some would say. For Example, wear a shirt and dress pants/ jeans, dress, skirt/shirt, pants suit, etc. No conference t-shirts, please.


What do I wear on Friday during the workshops?

Most people dress casually and comfortably i.e. jeans, shorts, capris, t-shirts, or even your conference shirt. If you are presenting you should do business casual. Remember meeting rooms are a little chilly so you should bring a sweater or light jacket.

 

What time does hotel check-in start?

Check in starts at 3:00 PM on Friday. You can check in at the main hotel check in desk. 

 


Do I need to tip at the Bars and Restaurants?

Yes. Tipping is strongly encouraged and usually considered a requirement. In the restaurants, please tip a minimum of 20% of the bill. When drinking at the bar please tip at least $ 1.00 or 2.00 per drink. IF YOU ARE UNSURE ON HOW MUCH TO TIP-ASK A FRIEND, ADVISOR OR TEXAS ADVOCATES STAFF!
