how exactly does one go block hotel rooms. do you call? do you go by there? we want to do that probably next week. probably either the wingate garden city, holiday inn westbury, four points sheraton plainview, or the garden hilton whatever it's called. we just don't know how to go about it. will they let us check it out? we want to compare rates also.

Re: blocking hotel rooms
When I did it the 3 hotels showed us the regular rooms and the bridal suite.. they give you a price there so you can walk away with that. I think the min. for most blocks are 10 rooms. We went with the Marriott in Melville - great price and great customer service.

Re: blocking hotel rooms
Just a little piece of advice before you go........ If you're having OOT guests or family/friends staying at the hotel so they don't have to drive home after the wedding, look for a hotel that provides a shuttle bus to/from RH.

Re: blocking hotel rooms
You definitely dont have to go in person. In fact, I found it easier to do it over the phone because I think over the phone negotiations are easier than in-person ones.
Negotiate? you ask.. ?
Check out my link from way back when with a tip on getting great rates for room blocks: Link on blocks
