No Room At The Inns?

There have been a lot of you last-minute hotel seekers out there frustrated to find that the special Irish Fest room rates aren't available any more. Here's the deal: we negotiate a large but limited number of rooms with the Westin and the Hyatt. Both hotels have graciously expanded our block in the past to accommodate more and more of you. But there are limits to the number of rooms that can be sold at that promotional rate. And we've reached them.

You can still, as of this writing, book a room at the Westin for Irish Fest weekend. But you will not get that the $99 rate, nor will you get festival tickets included. The Hyatt, as I understand is totally booked, barring last minute cancellations. By all means, if you're desperately seeking, call and ask about those cancellations. But let's learn a lesson here for next year. Book early. We started accepting discounted reservations last winter. I told you here that the Westin had run out of discounted rooms on July 12th. We're growing fast and one byproduct of our success is that you can't wait until Fest week to get your on-site room. We're sorry.

Remember, the President Hotel, 1 mile away is offering a ticketless $99 rate as long as they last.
