2008 Z06Fest Hotel Information
May 09, 2008 - 7:44 AM - by mdickie
As usual, the Baymont Inn and Suites will be the host hotel for the 2008 Z06Fest. The Baymont will be ground zero for all Fest activity, things like the MM WART tour, the Welcome BBQ, nightly raffles, nightly dinner excursions, and all around frivolity.

If you have made reservations at another hotel, you might want to rethink your choice, the Baymont will be the place to be, period.

To book a room at the Baymont, call the Bowling Green hotel DIRECTLY at 270-843-3200. Group Rate Code: Z06Fest

The national reservation center has no visibility into the room blocks at individual hotels and they will not be able to offer you the Group Rate.

Here are the details:

We currently have a block of rooms, as follows:

Sunday - Sep. 7 - 15 Rooms
Monday - Sep. 8 - 15 Rooms
Tuesday - Sep. 9 - 30 Rooms
Wed-Sun, Sep. 10-14 - 50 Rooms

The block and group pricing is good until July 15, 2008, after that you are on your own...

Group Rate pricing is as follows:

Standard room - $79 per night
1 Room Suite - $99 per night
Jacuzzi Suite - $149 per night
