Navy Lodge Perfect for Families on PCS Orders
With spring around the corner, many military families may soon be receiving permanent change of station (PCS) orders to move to a new duty station. Navy Lodge is the official government lodging when on PCS orders. Navy Lodge offers guests value with room rates at an average of 45 percent below comparable civilian hotels.
“Navy Lodges are a comfortable and safe place to stay for families on PCS orders,” said (NAME, TITLE). “In addition to being a friendly and inviting place for one night or an extended stay, Navy Lodges offers spacious rooms, comfortable lobby and free Wi-Fi, breakfast, newspaper and weekly manager’s reception. Most Navy Lodges also allow pets under 50 pounds to stay in the room with their family.”
Navy Lodge family suites offer guests oversized rooms with living and dining area, fully equipped kitchen and flat screen televisions with cable and DVD player. On-site amenities include guest laundry facilities, vending machines as well as children’s outside play area and workout room at many locations. Every Navy Lodge is handicapped accessible.
Authorized Navy Lodge guests on PCS orders can take advantage of a scratch-off card offering a 10, 15 or 25 percent discount or a free stay up to 20 nights. The discount is valid at all Navy Lodges in the continental United States until February 28, 2019. Guests may use only one discount per stay. Guests can pick up their scratch-off card on base at PSD, the housing office, household goods, the personal property office or NEX Customer Service desk. Scratch-off cards can also be sent to a guest by calling the Navy Lodge Reservation Center at (800) 628-9466.
