So about the Omni Shoreham...

....I just booked an amazing rate at the Omni for April 4 - 8 ($127 for our family of four...and, yes, I know, that somebody is going to jump in here %26amp; say ';I%26#39;m staying those same nights for $66 a night via Priceline'; but I';m still proud of this rate. LOL

Anyway, I remember hearing something like there%26#39;s an old, charming part of the hotel...and a new motel-like part...is that true? And is there a great view/area that I should specifically request?

many thanks to all of you smart travelers.

According to one of the recent reviews on TA, apparently the motel-like part of the hotel is called the ';Park View wing'; so I%26#39;d probably request a room that is not in that part of the hotel.

Good luck and have a nice trip.

mopsydog, many thanks!

That is a great rate. If you have time give them a call and ask if they will give you the Travelzoo rate for a couple of your nights for $109. It never hurts to ask.
