Default National Baltimore - Hotel recommendations

With the National in Baltimore again this coming year, was curious where everyone was planning to stay or recommendations/places to avoid. In 2010 we stayed at the Days Inn but did not want to stay there again. Also, when do you generally make reservations?

DJ,

Here are the hotels within walking distance of the convention center.

http://www.conferencehousing.com/TheNational/Baltimore/

The Hilton is connected to the convention center and most of the others are a short walk. A lot of collectors stay at a less expensive hotel outside the city and take the light rail or metro to the convention center.

See you in Baltimore !!!

Alan

Stayed at The Hilton that Alan mentioned in 2010. Aside from someone being shot on our floor the first night - everything was great.

It is nice and convenient and right across the street from the ballpark.

Unfortunately I don't think the O's are in town the week of the convention

Poor planning IMO cuz that was a highlight to take the family to the game

That sucks, I hadn't even bothered to look at the schedule yet. Yes, that is poor planning.

We stayed at Embassy and took the light rail.

1) Cheaper rate
2) Suite, which is like 2 rooms for the price of 1
3) Free breakfast buffet with omelets

... what is this you say about no O's game that weekend?!?!?!

Default National Hotels Baltimore 2012

I stayed at the Days Inn a block away last year $119 per night plus $22 parking per night---not a bad hotel there are many close by---this year I am staying at Sheraton next door to convention $149 per parking $5 per night---too bad the Orioles are not in town--the national was offered this date and couldnt refuse or it would have been a few more years until it came back---see u in August Don Hontz
