By Home Furnishings Business in High Point on November 2007 The High Point Market Authority has secured sub-blocks of hotel rooms at discounted rates for Spring 2008 High Point Market. In addition, airline and rental car discount codes have been finalized for Spring Market which will be held April 7-13.

Thirty-six hotels in the Piedmont Triad region, all with easy access to the High Point Market, are participating in the hotel program for Spring Market. Market attendees can book the rooms, many at substantial savings, at www.highpointmarket.org/hotels

Some restrictions and minimum-night stays apply, and discounted rates will be available until Jan. 31, or until sold-out.

“Many of the hotels taking part in the program are located in Greensboro and Winston-Salem,” said Tammy Covington Nagem, vice president of operations. “Both cities are great options for accommodations when visiting the High Point Market. For one thing, our free, comprehensive transportation system serves all of these properties and you’ll save considerably on parking and rental car fees. For another, there are plenty of dining options at area restaurants which tend to be less crowded in the adjoining Cities.”    

Airline and rental car discount codes are also confirmed for High Point Market. In addition to the Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO), there are discounts for travel through Charlotte, N.C. (CLT), and Raleigh/Durham, N.C. (RDU), each about 90 miles of High Point.
