Reservations for rooms at the Hope Hotel will open June 16th, 2025 at 9:00 am EDT.
Do not call them before that time. You can get room reservations by phone only. If you try to book online, you will see that there are no rooms for those dates. Every room in the Hope Hotel has been blocked for Contesters and DXers for Hamvention week. Starting Tuesday, June 16th, 2025 at 9 AM EDT, you can call 937-879-2696 and ask for a reservation in the Contest University 2026 room block. There is no minimum night commitment. The room rate is $161 per night plus tax and that includes a hot buffet breakfast each day of your stay. The room rate is the same for a single queen, two queens or a single king with a pull out.
We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday night, May 13th, 2026 for the first night of the 2026 Contest Super Suite at the Hope Hotel.
