Note: We had a secret operative at the Waldorf-Astoria on Monday night when Madonna was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Said spy, AllBeachy, gives us the full report of what went down. Madonna fans listen up. Enjoy.

The normally somewhat-staid Waldorf-Astoria was rockin’ on Monday night as the annual Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction dinner crowd took over the ballroom. Beautiful People abounded, as a mix of luminaries from the worlds of entertainment, publishing, and business table-hopped and schmoozed it up. ]]> juliana 2008-03-13T17:44:29-05:00 PM Linkage: What Your Favorite Annoying Celebrities Are Doing This Week at Hotels http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/3/12/14255/7763

Thus we have begun scoping out some prices for the hotel.<p>The best deal we can see right now is directly through the <a href="http://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/content/NYCWAWA/index.jhtml;jsessionid=PSETG4PEE4LAOCSGBI12VCQ">hotel's website</a>.

Usually this means more space but could also mean funky shower heads.<p>Other sites like Hotels.com are offering rooms starting at $369 a night, not including tax. But this way you have more flexibility as far as bed choices.

No, the sales and marketing people want you to enjoy the fall weather from their hotel properties across the country. And to entice you into doing so they have created several fall packages strung with pretty little orange and brown bows and with a couple of leaves placed in the knots.<p>Below we are listing some of the latest packages.
