Important Note
Reviewers who stay outside the Star’s Edge room block are required to pay a $300 production fee. Staying outside the room block includes not only staying elsewhere, but also staying at the host hotel and not being included in the Star’s Edge room block, as when you book through some other discount program or travel agent. Reserve early to avoid the production fee. Star’s Edge has reserved a large block of rooms but cannot guarantee reviewers will have a room in the room block. Reservations made after the deadlines will be accepted on a space available basis.
