2023 Spring Southern and Challenge Cup Hotel Block??

[Mike of the Mountain]

We reserved our rooms about 2-3 weeks ago. Start calling around, you'll find lodging.

Same place you stayed last year ?

It is becoming necessary to book MANY months in advance of the Southern to get a decent rate. I reserved my room on October 31 and got a rate of $116.25 (Thurs) and $125.40 (Fri. Sat). Today the same room is $230. Book your rooms now unless the PGCA or Foundation gets a block of rooms.

I checked the known local hotels and this is what I was told.

Comfort Suites: 919-842-5600
They do a rolling generic room block every year in which they set aside the entire hotel for the Southern. Right now they have rooms at $140 + tax. There is no other room blocking or discounts available. That's what I was told.

Days Inn: 919-776-3150
They would not block off any rooms unless I put them on my card. We're close fellas but we ain't that close. After discussing with "Tonya" she agreed that she would give the PGCA members a rate of $81 + tax. Right now they have rooms. It's not the Ritz but several members have stayed there for years and keep going back. I stayed last year and am going back as well.

The Hampton: 919-775-2000
Miss Cindy is the one to block rooms, she was gone. What is confusing here is that we were told back in October that nothing was available, today I was told they have several rooms. Right now the going rate is $152 + tax. I can check with Miss Cindy on Monday.

The phone numbers listed above are direct and not to 3rd party vendors handling their reservations.
