So here is my situation. I'm going to Toronto May 21-25 for a convention and want to stay the Hilton Toronto in downtown. I was able to snag a point stretcher reward for the 25th-28th, so Mrs. BOS Boy is coming up for the weekend and we are finally going to see Niagara Falls. The problem is this. I am only able to get a room at the convention rate for May 21-24th. Unfrotunately, the Hilton website shows no availablity of any kind for the the night of Thursday, May 24th. I would love to stay at the hotel for the entire week, instead of switching hotels in the middle of the conference. I only have gold status, so I can't use Diamond Force to get in that one night.

If I were to call the hotel directly, is there a good chance that they will still have a room available for the 24th even if it isn't listed on the website?

If I were to book for the fist 3 days is there a good chance I will be able to extend my stay for the 24th?

Or I do I just have to bite the bullet and switch hotels in the middle of the conference?

Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated
