Allentown Word to the Wise


Recommended Posts

Booked my Allentown hotel rooms last night. The closest good hotel room I could find for both Friday and Saturday was in Easton, PA. Everything in Allentown and Quakertown are already booked. There seem to be rooms for Saturday to Sunday, but not Friday to Saturday.

Did you try Bethlehem?

I used AAA which gives the closest available. There were some places available at the low end and the very high end, but not reasonable good rooms at a mid-price. ]

Musicfest is Awesome! I don't see why more people don't take advantage of this and make a week of their drum corps/music experience!

Drum Corps, Rock/Blues music and Dorney Park! Oh, And Food!

Guys . . .

I just went to the website for the Sands Casino Hotel in Bethlehem. Rooms area available there. It's a new, higher end hotel with shopping, the casino, and about 6 restaurants attached. It's also on the same acreage as some of the Musikfest activities!

Sometimes, you need to go about hotel reservations differently. Sites like AAA, the tour bureau, etc. only push certain properties due to contractual arrangements. By the way, there are some dump hotel properties throughout the ABE area. I live here, be careful. Also check Glasbern Inn a little NW of the stadium (10 miles?).

Booking.com still lists hotels available all over the area. One, the Hotel Bethlehem, would be my first choice if I didn't already have my own pillow waiting here. It's a superior hotel, located IN Muskifest on an extremely charming downtown street.
