just thought i'd share because i thought it was prety durn ridiculous.. i went to the sheratonr four points.. ya'll know the one on the LIE service road around NOTHING.. ... and asked for a quote for a block of rooms in febraury.. well the manager wasn't available but i figured the block group rate is a slight discount off of the reg room rate.. so i asked her what twas the reg room rate for feb.. and she told me.. $255 a night..

i stopped and said what? okay no.. not the sheraton manhattan.. i want this sheraton.. in plainview long island.. on the service road of the LIE next to a fabric shop.. with a view of absolutely NOTHING...

the lady at the counter shrugged her shoulders and said.. it's coming in at $255 a night..

i was in awe..

they actually were very very decent.. for that time of year it was just over a $100 a night. and the hotel was really nice rooms were nice, there is a bar and restaurant on site and they said they will keep the bar open after my reception.. .. i was just looking for options.. doesn't look like theres gonna be any.. lol.

sorry that s*cks that they raise the prices so much, it is alot for guests no matter where they're from. Even ppl from the NY going to a wedding would be like uhmmm thats a bit much.

Definitely keep looking though

Re: hotel quote..

I'm from Plainview and although it does sound high, there are 2 other hotels in the same area that are probably even higher. If you want cheaper you need to look in another area. Or look into a hotel that is not a chain. What area is your wedding in?
