Hotel Information:

There are many Hotels in the Allentown area and you should have no problem locating suitable accommodations.

COMFORT SUITES
: We will be staying at the COMFORT SUITES (3712 Hamilton Blvd, Allentown PA 18103, 610-437-9100; www.comfortsuites.com/hotel/pa117) which is located only a few miles away from the K.D. Smith Auction Center. The Comfort Suites is located directly across from Dorney Park, which is a major Allentown Amusement and Water Park. They quoted us a rate of $109.99 … $98.99 with AAA or AARP … and this price includes a Breakfast Buffet for two. Directions: I-78 Exit 54 & 54B, US 222 North (Hamilton Blvd), ½ mile to hotel. Just opposite Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom.

HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS & SUITES: If you prefer a Holiday Inn, this hotel is located next to the Comfort Suites, also across from Dorney Park. (3620 Hamilton Blvd, Allentown PA 18103, 610-437-9255; www.hiexpress.com/abe.dorney). Their rate was comparable to the Comfort Suites.

Although there were several other Hotels closer to the Auction Center … and cheaper … we felt more comfortable recommending these two hotels as being cleaner and more accommodating.
