Help me choose a hotel!

If this is for your guests I would give them both options and just do a courtesy block at both.

I am paying for the shuttle...I can only choose 1 hotel for pick up and drop off.

I think it may depend on your guests. What is more important to them — cost, distance or free liquor? I know for me, I’d rather be closer (I’m always teased about being willing to pay for convenience), but some of my friends and family members would rather pay less. And others will make a decision based on the booze.

Well the liquor isn't free. It's just to keep the bar open. I feel like distance is irrelevant when I am paying for their ride to the venue. I don't know. Ugh. I need to decide and get these invites out!

Id go with the one that's closer

I’d say option A. B looks way too far!

I would block rooms at both. Pay for the shuttle for the hotel that is farther away, and guests who stay at the closer one can Uber if they want to stay there. But that way you can shuttle everyone back to the hotel that has the after party and again if guests don’t want to stay there they can Uber to the other hotel. That way your guests have an option.

As a guest, I would choose Option A

Closer is better!
You can direct guests looking to save toward the cheaper hotel , but have the shuttle go to the closer hotel only. I’d generally rather pay for the more expensive hotel with a ride included than save the money and sort of transportation, but, I like to drink at weddings and I like convenience! I definitely had some guests who are frugal and not big drinkers who still might stay at a cheaper hotel and just drive themselves to and from
