    Hi, I have been going to Hershey for about 15 years or so and the last time I got a room for under 75 bucks was the first time I went!, This year we got the first night for $89 and the other 3 nights are $116. We stay in Harrisburg usually, about 40-50 minutes from Hershey Park. If you don't have reservations yet, It's time to set them up, the place is just nuts with people for the show. Unless you have pockets deeper than the Grand Canyon, you can forget about staying in Hershey proper (if there's even a room left). My BIL sets up the logistics for our trips and he has tried to get us closer to the park but it turns out that the hard core guys book their rooms a year in advance and stay at the same place every show just to be near the park. Good luck, I'll see you there!

    Days Inn Lebanon, PA. Pretty close and probably as cheap as it's gonna get at $75/night. Stayed there last year and it was over $100, but I booked it just this week at $75

    I have stayed in Elizabethtown for the last three years. Rented a cabin at the KOA just outside of town. We rent a three bed cabin and split the bill three ways. I think there is a 3 night minimum. Not a bad drive to Hershey-but we hit the road early.
