Hello All,

I'm looking to make Reservations at one of the two Hotels mentioned previously for the run on the 15th. I'll be towing from NW NJ on Friday, staying overnight and launching Saturday morning for the run, then back on the trailer, staying overnight again on Saturday then back home on Sunday.

Did anyone block out any rooms or work any deals with the Hotels?

In any case which is the best Hotel for me to choose?

Thanks,

Pat Brennan

pat check out page 7 post #184.
looking foward to meeting you.

Thanks Fast Fountain,

I made Reservations at the Holiday Inn. The rate they gave me was $139 per night since I didn't have any name to drop for the discount. If anyone knows a way to get this discounted I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

Pat Brennan

Im glad to see this is getting big!!! Pat,let me know if you need directions,i know all roads on LI Tripps

Hey Pat,

I get a rate of $109.00 per night at the Holiday Inn, if you like I will make a reservation for you...let me know.

Gary,

If I could save $30 per night that would be great. I need 1 room with 2 couble beds for 2 nights, arriving Friday and departing Sunday. 2 Adults and 2 kids (aged 5 and 3) non-smoking. If you could make the reservations I'd cancel mine. You can reach me either at work 973-496-7363 or at home 973-663-3199 or via email at [email protected].

Thanks,

Pat

I definitely need directions, for a trailer rig to the Holiday Inn. I'm a Jersey boy and am not too familiar with "the Island". I'd be coming across the GWB.

Thanks,

Pat

Pat,

OK, I managed to get you a room with two double beds, non-smoking (I can change that to smoking if you prefer) at a rate of $99.00/nite at the Long Island Mac Arthur airport Holiday Inn. Only catch is it will be under my name until you check in, you should then change the name and credit card. It is now under my card and can be canceled anytime before 6PM day of arrival (5/14/04). I will forward the confirmation to you via e-mail, any questions give me a call at: 631-793-8507.

Best and only practical way to get to the Holiday Inn from the GWB follows:

When you exit the GWB stay on 95 E. which is actually the Cross Bronx Expressway. Follow the signs to the Throgs Neck Bridge to Queens, after crossing the bridge continue straight ahead (you will be on the Clearview Expressway) until you see signs for the Long Island Expressway East, take that exit and continue eastbound on the L.I.E. until you see exit 57 (Veteran's Memorial Hwy.) Exit right and at the traffic light make a right turn. Continue on Vet's Hwy (Southeast if you have a compass) for approximately 5 miles. You will see the Holiday in on the left but will need to make a u-turn to get back to the entrance (Vet's Hwy is divided). Plan to park your rig in the back of the lot, there should be plenty of room. I will try and send some pix of the parking lot when I have time. See you then!
