Hotel
We have reserved a block at the Holiday Inn Roslyn
Thank you for the signed contract, the Georgetown Debate OR GD6 block is now active in our reservations system.
Guests can call into 703-807-2000 OR 800-368-3408 to speak with our in house reservations staff,they will need to mention Georgetown Debate OR GD6 in order to receive the discounted rate of $130.
This hotel is directly across the street from the Marriott the Georgetown tournament has used in the past. I did try to get rooms there, but they would only agree to $199/night because the tournament is now on a holiday weekend.
Please reserve early and please don't take more rooms than you anticipate needing.
