I was just looking at another forum, & they are saying that the hotels in York are almost all filled up.

I was just looking at another forum, & they are saying that the hotels in York are almost all filled up. I am not surprised - based on my experience, there are not a lot of rooms in any case and the pent-up wishes of people for in person events is strong. I can’t make it this time but that’s not anything to do with COVID or the restrictions imposed with it. I wish everybody who attends a very happy train time.

It's been quite a few years since I've done over-nighters to York. Now it's mostly a day trip. But when my wife and I would make a long weekend of York, we never had trouble getting rooms. Often we'd stay at nice B&B's within a 20-minute easy ride to the fairgrounds. Decades ago, the complete sell-out scenario was MUCH more common around York week. But in recent years, TONS of new hotels have sprung up around York -- well within easy driving distance.
Of course, it doesn't hurt to make reservations early, but I wouldn't worry about getting a room if you haven't booked one yet.

I wish I was close enough for a day trip, but I'm at the wrong end of Pennsylvania for that! I have a two-night reservation, but may have to take the cancel at no charge option. My recuperation from lumbar fusion is on track to be able to go, but I hate to leave my wife by herself to handle her mum. She needs on-site moral support, more than anything. Mum is a pistol!! We will be discussing it in the next couple weeks. She will tell me to go, and I will feel guilty the whole time at York. So, I may be opening up one room.

We had no problem getting a hotel room for York over the weekend. There seems to be plenty of rooms available.
We had to book three hotels for our trip. Four nights in York, one night in Philly to visit with family and friends (and squeeze in a Flyers game) and one night at BWI airport for our trip home Monday morning.

If I go, I will not be staying overnight. If we need to wear a mask, I won't be going.

I won't be able to go until April due to financial issues.

I have 2 days of vacation left to use for the year. I could go to York and roll the dice there are no snow days, I don't get sick or who knows. Nope I think not. Hoping to go to the April show. Mark you're kinda on my way through. Maybe we could plan to carpool in April 2022?

The folks I know that are kinda on my way make a whole week of it, so that never works for me. I did share a room with one of them once for the two nights I stayed. I got there days after they did and went home a day before they did.

The hotel we stay at is a few miles from the fair grounds. I'm not driving so I can't say exactly where, but there's a Mexican restaurant connected with it.

Denny that could be the Quality Inn on Market St? I stayed there a few times. The last time there I had a very scary room. Vowed to never stay there again!
