UPDATE 3/7/2008: EVERYONE! I just spoke with the hotel. We have in fact filled our room block for Friday and Saturday. Wow.
The important thing to note is this, if you call the hotel DIRECTLY using the information that I sent to the mailing list AND is on our website, you should NOT be told that they will not give you the MagicMeets rate. I was told that as long as people call the hotel DIRECTLY you should still get the rate as a courtesy.
PLEASE DO NOT try to book on the web and DO NOT try calling the Radisson main hotel reservations number. You MUST call the hotel directly. I hope this makes sense. :)
The MagicMeets 2008 event will be held at the:
Radisson Penn Harris Hotel
& Convention Center
Radisson Penn Harris Hotel & Convention Center - Overview
(717) 763-7117
Group Rate code: "MagicMeets"
(group rate available only by phone)
A fantastic group rate for the hotel is available, though space is limited. Our group rate is $124 per night plus tax (compared to the rack rate is $174 and up plus tax). The group rate is available for rooms booked for Wednesday 7/16, Thursday 7/17, Friday 7/18, Saturday 7/19, and Sunday 7/20. At this time, there is no option to book online using the group rate. Please note that there is a best rate of $134 on the Radisson website but it requires payment at the time of booking and you cannot cancel without losing at least 1 night payment.
Why not consider coming in the night before the meet (Friday) and staying through Sunday? It’s a great opportunity to build an entire family weekend around our event! For those that are coming from ‘far, far away’, the hotel has complimentary transportation to and from the local airport for guests that are staying overnight at the hotel.
Ok, ready to book? Call:(717) 763-7117 and be sure to mention the group code when booking. It's really easy! The code is "MagicMeets".
For those of you that reserved a room but (sadly) didn't get in to pay for your MagicMeets tickets in time, please consider releasing your hotel reservation. This would help us maintain an accurate hotel room count. Thank you.
