Al the rooms are sold out at the hampton where is the next best hotel where PGCA stays, Comfort Inn or the Holiday Inn Express, Gary

Gary,
We are checking to see if we can add more rooms to the block and will let you know what they say. Unfortunately once the announcement is made anyone including non PGCA members can call and book at our rate so it's important to book your room right away.

There are a limited number of rooms in Baltimore and the cut off date for PGCA special pricing is coming up in a couple of weeks. Anyone planning to attend that show and PGCA Annual Meeting/Banquet should book their room for that event right away as well.

I just was trying to call the Hampton and it is still busy. And, On-line it says it is sold out.

Let us know what you can figure out Larry.

Brian,
That line has been busy for two days so they either have a phone problem or it's off the hook. I made several calls this morning (India I think) to try to increase or room block but their group sales office is closed for the Holiday so I won't get an answer until Monday or Tuesday. If I were you I would book at the Comfort Inn or Holiday Inn to make sure you have a place to stay and if we can arrange for more rooms at the Hampton you can always change your reservation if you choose.

Which is the best alternative Comfort or the Holiday, The online people said no rooms available in that time slot at the Hampton, they must be having a KKK rally there or some such mess do not understand why the phones do not work! gary

I booked at the comfort. Their rates are better than the holiday inn. Normal rate was like $130 and AAA is $118.


The holiday inn was around $150 or $160.

Well I finally got through to the hampton Inn and believe or not made my reservations 4-21/4-24 for the southern and got a conformation number, I do not know if they blocked more rooms or what but you might get lucky as I did, Gary

Gary,
After reading your post I tried again and got thru as well. It seems a car took down a pole last Thursday and all three hotels on that block were without phones. I found out that we have eight rooms left in our block at $94.00 and I was able to add 10 more but at a rate of $104.00. The hotel is almost completely full so anyone wanting to stay at the Hampton should call asap. There is a cut-off date at which time they will release any unsold rooms and I will post that date on Tuesday after I speak to the manager.

I wanted to give everyone a heads up that the rooms within the PGCA block will be available at the posted price until April 3rd at which time any unsold rooms will become available to the general public at the standard rate.
