Help with Hotel Hershey
 

I just tried to make reservations for Sept 19-21, and they are all booked up! I was a little surprised since we're more than 3 months out and that is the beginning of the off-season. My thought is maybe there is a big wedding (or two) that have blocks of rooms held. I am on the waiting list in case something opens up.

My questions are:

• Does anyone here have connections that would be willing to help secure a confirmed res?
• Has anyone had experience with a reservation waiting list (here or at other properties), that might give me an idea of the likelihood of an opening?

We really want to do those dates at that property - it's our wedding anniversary, and Hershey is a special place for us.

Thanks!

No connections, and no idea why there aren't rooms available. However, Hershey Lodge does have rooms available. http://www.hersheylodge.com/index.php

thanks for the thought, kipper. i don't think we're interested in the Hershey Lodge for this trip, but i'll double check with the wife. it's a much different experience there than at the Hotel. plus we would be getting spa treatments and dining at the Hotel.

Follow up: I sent a nicely-worded letter to Hotel Hershey explaining that I am on the waiting list for those days, and appreciate in advance anything they could do. Well, yesterday I received a phonecall from the General Manager's assistant saying that they have been able to "move some things around" and are able to accommodate us for the nights we requested. ^ Great customer service HH! This is what makes you such a special property.
