Your hosts in the Central Hudson Valley Chapter have negotiated a special rate for a limited number of rooms at the Grand Hotel in Poughkeepsie, located at 40 Civic Center Plaza, Poughkeepsie, NY 12601. For reservations, please call 1-800-216-1034; or make a reservation online at reservations@pokgrand.com.
If you plan to stay at the Grand Hotel, it is highly recommended that you register well in advance. The special convention rate is $119 per room per night, single or double occupancy. This rate includes both garage parking and daily breakfast. The Grand Hotel has agreed to honor this rate from June 20 to checkout on June 25 for those wishing to arrive early. When calling for reservations, be sure to inform the Grand Hotel that you are attending the 2005 AGO Region II & III Convention. If the reserved block of rooms at the Grand Hotel is filled, you may be referred to other hotels which are not within walking distance of many convention venues, and where rates cannot be guaranteed.
