I called the Arena Hotel (next to the whole foods store where the skaters hang out) next to the Arena in San Jose about room availability for US Nationals in a year. They told me a few months ago to call back in Late December (fat chance...they dont know yea olde coyote:thumbsup:...but they did remember my email)
They are now taking reservations that can be canceled up to the day before the event. YOU MUST CALL THEM TO GET RESERVATIONS. 408-294-6500, hit 0 for front desk.
If you book a week or more, the rate is STILL $150 a night, like the last two times we were there, for one king bed. I am sure there will be state and local charges.
The Arena hotel has 89 rooms, IIRC and 89 only. I wonder how long they will last once word gets around?
For me, the advantage of the Arena hotel is its close to the arena and has a whole foods store next door and a CVS or like store on the other side. There is a free breakfast buffet with protein. There are hot tubs in every room.
But there are lots of other nice hotels a half mile away and some inexpensive ones a block or so west of the Arena Hotel.
The ride share that rymes with goober is a great way to go to the secondary venue, which is very nice and very big and very cold. I expect only practices there.
see you there!
