University of Wisconsin Lodging Recs?
I need about 20 rooms near campus, 2 beds per room (queen or full's are fine), inside hallways, under $100/room, May 18-22. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Well thats good news its a week later as that would be a tough order to fill, the closest hotel to campus area I can think or would be a Doubletree off Johnson I think there are some smaller unknown/single spot hotels/chains. There are a few in the downtown loop area, the Madison Concourse which I have stayed at is right by State and a good 15-20min walk to the memorial. There is also a Hyatt place off W.Wash which is about equil distance. Lots will depend on where your event is.
Personally if you are looking for a pure pricepoint hotel. I still think places off I-90/E.Wash you can prob negociate cheaper but then just drive in or take the bus.
Oh there is a Best Western by the UW-Hospitals i thinks

Glad that's working out. I know Marriott has their own "small meeting" portal as well.
Once you start getting beyond say 1-4 rooms, you need to get into the realm of the sales team that wants to win your business, versus the Rev Mgmt nerd trying to squeeze the last dime out of mass demand.

Can UW get you their local government rate? I stayed at the Hilton downtown for well under $100/nt for weeks on UW's rate. You might call and ask the property if not - they were quite nice to deal with IME.
