I live in Northern Virginia and want to attend the April 2011 Barrett-Jackson auction in Palm Beach...I'm looking for local lodging recommendations rather than just pick something unseen/unknown form the internet. If the local beaches are not too far away from the event, my first preference would be something nice that puts me on/near the beach and the event. Thanks!

 

Can't beat The Breakers. http://www.thebreakers.com/beachfrontexperience/
They even have a special rate going on now.The auction is at the other end of the county but not that far a drive.

 

i live about 2 miles from where the auction is, pm me if you have any questions, if you want to be near the beach, breakers, or 4 seasons are both great,about 25 min away.

 

We have a hotel about 15 minutes away....all Suite hotel....brand new. Hilton Homewood Suites. I can get you an aggressive rate, just let me know.

 

def stop at Rachel's Steak House after the auction on the way back to the Hotel, best steak around, just west of I-95 on 45th street

 

definitely NOT the best steak around - not even close. Capital Grill and Mortons far exceed, imo, and are in the same market.

But the PSY is the best in town at Rachaels. lol

 

That's what I was talking about,
