Holiday Inn & conference center of York is no longer.

My wife says she is tagging along this Spring and she is NOT going to put up with camping so guess I better look at reserving a place fit for a Queen.   

Thanks Eddie. I got the email about the change but I didn't know if my reservation was still good. Hope to see you and your dog in April.

It's a long drive to Cinderella's Castle in Orlando.

Thanks Eddie for this update. Always has been a wonderful place to stay and close to all of the events. I don't see this changing with the name. Reservations in place and ready to go.

I thought Wyndham was higher scale than Holiday Inn, rates going up?

I suspect no matter what the official name is it will always be the Holidome. How long has Billy Budd been gone?

LOL! Like a Wyndam Hotel will put up a train show in their parking lot! Aint that a Marketing FoPa

Why not, remember that for many years after that hotel changed from a Sheraton to a Holiday Inn, us train guys still called it “The Sheraton”!  Old habits are hard to break.

Bill

To me it will always be the Sheraton, and the Days Inn will always be the Billy Budd.

Eddie, will the Wednesday Holiday Inn "bandit" meet still be held there?

while not staying there this time it's a possibility in the future. Let us know how nice it is now.

Hojack, The bandit meet will still still be there.

Gary, everything was done in Oct except the rooms. It is super nice now. The rates did not go up for April, but my guess is that you will pay for it in Oct.

Not just Wednesday,  but Monday and Tuesday,  too!

Bill

Thank you!  I'll be there.

Bill, good to know, I'm driving to York on Tuesday this year so that I'll have times for these smaller meets.

I don't see any Wynham hotels listed for this location, only the one near rt.80 and rt.30. in York. Maybe it's booked solid?

This is "York"...why wouldn't it be booked solid?  Glad to hear they are not booting the

indor/outdoor show for "liability" or some other reason.

The days of booked solid hotels ended a several  years ago. While a few of them still may get pretty full, I haven't heard anyone complaining that there "was no room at the inn" for many years. I even have had friends decided to show up 1 week before the show having no problem getting into decent hotels with no issue.

Just for the heck of it I tried the new Wynham for 5 other dates from Feb-July and got a "no room available" reply. Must be pretty popular, to say the least.

I did notice that a lot of upscale York lodging is still available for 4/23. As usual, I'm staying at the York downtown Rodeway Inn for the senior rate of $71.95.

Booked a place near New Cumberland for $75/night as the neighborhood around Rodeway did not appeal to my wife.  A few times now we stayed near Harrisburg and did some sightseeing around there and it worked out real nice. 

Do the girls say, "Hi Big  Boy !!"

Depends who they are talking to. Some get "Hi, PEEP".
