Hotel Information:
HOP
has chosen the Radisson Plaza-Warwick Hotel as the
venue for Let Freedom Ring!
Located in the historic Rittenhouse Square area of Philadelphia
and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the
hotel was originally constructed in 1926. With 545 rooms, the
hotel is large enough for our collectors, yet it retains a
feeling of intimacy. The staff has gone out of their way to work
with the event committee. The rooms are more than comfortable
and the food is outstanding! It is close to a wide variety of
shopping and restaurants as well as public transportation to
historic sites.
Attendees will make their own reservations with the hotel. The
hotel has blocked enough rooms for our event; however,
reservations must be made prior to
September 9, 2004. Make your reservations early, to
insure you get the room type and size you need. Room rates start
at $117 per night for 1-2 people. The room rate is also
available for three days prior to and three days after the
event, so attendees can take advantage of all that Philadelphia
has to offer. The hotel is pet friendly and will accept small
pets. A $50 non-refundable deposit is required. Guests with pets
are assigned rooms on the "pet" floor.
The
hotel has established a Web page just for our event where you
can obtain additional information about the hotel (including a
virtual tour) and make your reservations online. Click on [http://www.radisson.com/harmonykingdom] to reach their
Website.
