Jon, while that hotel looks lovely, I'm not sure it has everything we want. It doesn't look like they have suites, for the hospitality suite, or any kind of meeting room/ballroom we could have prom in.

I've been doing some looking, though, while waiting to get my hands on the RFP, and I don't think we'll have any trouble getting a place in our price range. Harvard Square is a wonderful, idea, though.

And may I throw an idea in? if we like a city but the central hotels are too expensive, if there's good public transit outlying areas might be a possibility.

Yeah, we did well going to Evanston for Chicago.

Like Salem! Heh. Well, I gotta check on room rates and stuff.

This is why Harvard Square and parts of Somerville, etc. would work really well for the Boston area, 'cause they'd all be T-able.

I've fired off a couple of inquiries... anyone have the number of rooms booked and the number of room nights for SF or DC?

Heh, my perception is that these areas rock on their own and it took me a minute to think about how people would want to go to Boston!

Well, yeah, there is that, Nora!

I'd love to see the surrounding area, myself. I managed to spend one good day in Boston and saw a lot of the highlights. The only thing I really want to go back to is the MFA. You know museums, you can never see everything in just one visit.
