I finally signed up for the Mountaineer HIM today and called the host hotel. They will only take reservations for two nights right now so I would have to stay over Sunday which I don't think will work for me. Last year I stayed at the Holiday Inn which was OK but a litte far. Where is everyone staying and does anyone have any recommendations?

Danielle and I are staying at the Host Hotel. It is are first time down at Mountaineer so we figured why not. We'll be staying there Saturday and Sunday night.

Okay everybody, I just called and booked reservations for (3) rooms for 1-night only. The general reservation line shows the hotel booked, but if you call 304-296-1700 directly, ask for reservations and explain to them you are there for the triathlon they will accomodate you. I believe the rooms were blocked off by the hotel and race director specifically for competitors, so again be sure to indicate you are there for the triathlon. Hope this helps.

Hey thanks for that update and phone i just booked a room. Apparently the first person i talked to didnt realize there was a block of rooms for the tri.
As far as the reason given to me by the first person I talked to about the two night minimum, I was told they wanted to limit the number of people checking out on Sunday because there were going to be so many.
