Hello All, I just tried to make a reservation at the Arlington Hilton for the AMSAT Symposium, the Web site is saying that there aren't any rooms available at the AMSAT rate. Is anyone else seeing this problem? Mike KB2GHZ

Did you use the correct link / reservation code?
https://www.hilton.com/en/hi/groups/personalized/D/DCAVAHF-RAS-20191015/inde...
Group code is "RAS".
I used this and set the dates for 17th - 20th, and was able to view a room at $150/night.

Yep I used group code "RAS" It replies with: The requested rate is not available. View other available rooms and rates below.

I had the same issue for last year’s symposium in Huntsville. I needed up just staying across the street from the host hotel and, by doing so, saved about $100 and in a newer property with better amenities. It’s not just a problem with AMSAT events, I travel frequently to many events where I have to self-book and almost 50% of the time the ‘special’ codes don’t work. I would just give the hotel a call or look for less expensive options within a reasonable distance. Best of luck and 73!

I always do the same checking around myself and sometimes find a better deal. The AMSAT group rate at the Hilton is $149. Except for the B&B's (Bed and Bugs) I can't imagine a much cheaper rate in the DC area for a decent hotel.

The hotel has had all kinds of problems with this. I initially managed to get Wed-Sun nites at the rate, but not the 15th so I could go to the start of the board meeting. Martha has been in contact with them and I got the rate for the 15th. But that was last Weds.
I do suggest calling them directly at the hotel, not the central reservation line. Push to talk to the group person if the first person can't help. If that does not work, check with Martha (I hate to say that since she is probably flooded with these kinds of calls!) It's possible the block is sold out, but given the trouble, I'd be surprised. BTW, do not take the prepaid rate (which is about double the AMSAT rate, but is the next cheapest thing) until all other avenues are covered. Getting out of that is REALLY difficult.

I just finished booking my symposium room using the online chat function with a Hilton customer service rep.
The AMSAT rate is only good through Saturday night. If you plan to stay Sunday night, you'll have to book that night separately (at a much higher rate).
The CS rep said the AMSAT block of rooms was filling up quickly.

Did you use the correct link / reservation code?

Group code is "RAS".
I used this and set the dates for 17th - 20th, and was able to view a room at $150/night.

The AMSAT rate is only good through Saturday night. If you plan to stay Sunday night, you'll have to book that night separately (at a much higher rate).

The hotel has had all kinds of problems with this. I initially managed
to
get Wed-Sun nites at the rate, but not the 15th so I could go to the
start
of the board meeting. Martha has been in contact with them and I got
the
rate for the 15th. But that was last Weds.
I do suggest calling them directly at the hotel, not the central reservation line. Push to talk to the group person if the first person can't help. If that does not work, check with Martha (I hate to say that since she is probably flooded with these kinds of calls!) It's possible the block is sold out, but given the trouble, I'd be surprised. BTW, do not take the prepaid rate (which is about double the AMSAT rate, but is
the
next cheapest thing) until all other avenues are covered. Getting out of that is REALLY difficult.

Did you use the correct link / reservation code?
https://www.hilton.com/en/hi/groups/personalized/D/DCAVAHF-RAS-20191015/inde...
Group code is "RAS".
I used this and set the dates for 17th - 20th, and was able to
view
a
room at $150/night.

The AMSAT rate is only good through Saturday night. If you plan to
stay
Sunday night, you'll have to book that night separately (at a much
higher
rate).
The CS rep said the AMSAT block of rooms was filling up quickly.

The hotel has had all kinds of problems with this. I initially
managed
to
get Wed-Sun nites at the rate, but not the 15th so I could go to the
start
of the board meeting. Martha has been in contact with them and I
got
the
rate for the 15th. But that was last Weds.
I do suggest calling them directly at the hotel, not the central reservation line. Push to talk to the group person if the first
person
can't help. If that does not work, check with Martha (I hate to say
that
since she is probably flooded with these kinds of calls!) It's
possible
the block is sold out, but given the trouble, I'd be surprised.
BTW,
do
not take the prepaid rate (which is about double the AMSAT rate, but
is
the
next cheapest thing) until all other avenues are covered. Getting
out
of
that is REALLY difficult.
