I've only stayed in a hotel in the Hershey area a couple of times ago and it was so long ago I don't remember the cost. I do remember the rooms as being somewhat expensive and fairly small.

I know that's not any help, but I wanted to add (in case you haven't been to that area before) that if you have the time, the Pretzel factory in Lititz, Amish Village, and the Strasburg railroad would probably be fun for the kids (assuming they're not too young).
