Situated high atop the town of Hershey, Pennsylvania, THE HOTEL HERSHEY is a getaway in itself. This is a place to awaken your senses, soothe your soul, and experience the finest in elegance and service. It's Milton Hershey's ultimate expression of grandeur.
THE HOTEL HERSHEY has received the AAA Four-Diamond Award for 27 consecutive years, the most of any resort or hotel in Pennsylvania. The Hotel has also earned the Mobil Four-Star distinction for more than 16 years.
More hotel information can be found at the Hotel Hershey web site.
Hershey Park will be open for a private group event on Sunday, April 20th. PANA Spring Symposium attendees can purchase tickets at the Spring Symposium registration table to enjoy the park that day. The park is not yet open to the public, this is a special event for a private group, so the park should not be crowded. The entire park will be open except the Boardwalk. If the temperature is above 70 degrees the water rides will be open. The park hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Cost for tickets is $26.50 for ages 3 and older. Tickets will be on sale throughout the weekend at the PANA Spring Symposium registration desk.
