accommodations

We've found a variety of places for our guests to stay, ranging from inexpensive chain hotels to decadent bed and breakfasts. We hope you'll find something here to suit you. If you don't, please let us know so we can help you find something just right!

If you're flying in, you might like to know that the Edgewood Club and our house lie to the east of the city, and the airport lies on the other side. In other words, unfortunately there's not going to be any lodging that'll be convenient to both the airport and to us. Sorry :( But we'll do all we can to help you with transportation once you're here.

I've colored bed-and-breakfast or inn rows lighter to help you spot what you're looking for more easily.

The Name column is, I hope, self-explanatory: the name of the facility.

The Price column gives a price range as of the last update (check the bottom of the page). It's just to give you an idea, of course, of how the different accommodations compare price-wise to one another, not to give quotes. I'll probably reserve a block of rooms at one hotel, and I'll indicate that one both in the Name and in the Price columns.

The Travel Time column indicates the driving distance between the accommodation and the ceremony and reception site, the Edgewood Club, at least according to Rand McNally (which appears, in my opinion, to be merely a factor of distance and speed limit, not traffic).

If you want the scoop on where you're considering staying, just ask--we'll be happy to help you find just the right place.

The closest accommodation, the Holiday Inn Parkway East is about 1.25 miles, or five minutes, away from the ceremony and reception site, so we've reserved rooms there. The hotel will release the Price-Bernard block on August 25. The next closest hotel is the Comfort Inn (information below) the Inns on Negley is a nearby bed and breakfast in Shadyside (very close to the rehearsal dinner restaurant), and the Sunnyledge is a boutique hotel a little bit further west. (See events for a reference map.)

Below are the accommodations within a 10-minute drive of the Edgewood Club, where the ceremony and reception will be, without traffic or construction, assuming you drive at about speed limit.

For the complete list with maps, including countryside bed and breakfasts, see the complete accommodations list--but it may take about three minutes to load over a 28.8kbps dial-up modem.
