If I get a suite with a kitchen can I use a hotplate then?

they probably wouldn't realize because many people cook there. The first clue they get that someone is using unapproved appliances is the cooking smell so i would say your pretty aafe to be cooking in a suite with a kitchen (not just a kitchenette)

Don't know if this has been mentioned before but after spending dozens of shabbosim in hotels we never thought of this before.

We packed along a timer for the lamp so we can turn it off at night.

It was so simple and brilliant.

So you never heard about the Kosher lamp?

a tad larger than a timer

You are comparing shlepping a kosher lamp to bringing a little timer?

Getting back to the title of the thread...where is a good getaway for shabbos? Something with nature, walks, peaceful. Not a 5k IHG on the highway (although I wouldn't mind that price)

Sheraton Parsippany could be a good option for you. There's is a nice walking trail around a lake behind it. Weekend prices are reasonable (it usually doesn't make sense to use points). There are often minyanim at the hotel on shabbos and it's walkable to a shul. There is an outdoor and indoor pool.

For an alternative, consider the Hyatt House across the street where you'll get a suite with a full kitchen
(though service is considerably better at the Sheraton)

Chalet is a real dump not upkept and food isn't good, went once and never again
Raleigh is old but they take care of it, new mattresses, parts are renovated and the food is amazing.

yg99 · « **Reply #334 on:** July 23, 2015, 11:23:39 PM »

I heard they fixed up part of it and they have a new chef this year.

That's why I'm asking.

Anyone have experience this year?

looking for someplace to go to this shabbos does not need to be hotel specifically. vrbo property is fine as well as long as its walking distance to minyan and not longer than two hour drive from monsey. anyone?
