Great to see the hotel info up and that the Hilton is staying at it's $84/night rate. This will be our fourth time attending.
I'll book it soon.
See you all there, good Lord willing. Wink

I was hoping to get there but could not get the time off work. Perhaps the Spring show?

I thought so too when I tried to book it online.

However, if you use the Group Code PNS it suddenly gave me rooms to reserve.

I guess they could be out, but the show reserves a block that isn't part of the normal reservations for the hotel.

I ran into the same problem when trying to book my room yesterday. You have to do what Ed said and put in the PNS code BEFORE you search for a room.

Wish I could have stayed at Hilton. Said all booked up. Either way I would have had to choose Holiday Inn since they allow pets!

OK, here is an update on hotels. The Hilton Garden Inn is now sold out. The block of rooms that were saved for show guests have all been booked. There is a marathon in Allentown the same weekend as the show and a large wedding party staying at the hotel and so the hotel is now fully booked...at least for Saturday. There may still be rooms for other nights including rooms at the special Philly Show rate but I suspect this might not be too much help unless someone is coming on Friday to go to the show Saturday and then going home Saturday night. In any event, that's the story.

The good news is, we have made arrangements for another block of rooms at the Staybridge Suites Allentown Bethlehem Airport, which is the hotel next door to the Hilton. For those who have never been to the Hilton before, it is very close and a very easy walk. The rate for the Staybridge is $89 (plus tax) and includes breakfast.

There are also still plenty of rooms at the Allentown Wingatge by Wyndham and Holiday Inn Allentown Center City.

All of the info including cut-off dates and the group code you must use to get the special show discounted rate are on our Travel & Hotel Info page.

Thanks.
