Geez, already?!? Wow! I need to join one of those Facebook groups to keep up with this information. It would be nice to not have to walk a mile back and forth to and from the convention.
Are there any host hotels left for next year? The DC webpage that I keep periodically checking says the Hilton and the Sheraton are "TBA," but curiosity got the best of me so I called the Hilton and they said they're sold out. The rep I spoke with said that they haven't updated the site yet. I assume that it's the same for the Sheraton and they haven't updated the site as well.I stayed at the Omni for the last two years, which was okay, but the shuttle is too slow and inconsistent. There's only one shuttle along the route, so if you miss it, you'll be waiting for at least 40 minutes. The walk isn't that far in civilian clothing, but in a costume, it's brutal.
I still haven't bought my membership but I will once I have all the SDCC stuff squared away. I'm also set in a friend's room but me and two of my other friends are waiting to see if another friend is gonna come then we're gonna check and see if any of the host or close overflow hotels open up. The Westin just opened up a block but we aren't too fond of that one so we're waiting to see if Hyatt, Hilton, or Aloft pop up.
I would also suggest joining the dragon con rooms facebook page. As it gets closer people will be letting go of rooms left and right.I thought I was for sure going this year but now I don't know. Its so close to SDCC that financially I don't know if I can do it. The good thing is that I can buy a badge later on (even if its more money) and I already have a room. Although it was difficult to get said room so it hurts the think about letting it go!
Which hotel [member=1240]Angie[/member]? If you're looking for roommates, I have friends I can vouch for that are looking and if you do eventually feel like you can't go, do you mind messaging me? I'm helping them look for a room period. I'd love to be able to link up with you either way if you do come!And we're all a part of the Rooms group but it seems nobody is messaging off the list properly anymore
I have some potential roommates already but even with that it still might be too much money. Yeah it seems the facebook group is more of a free for all when someone posts something.
Ain't that the truth. Nobody's properly striking anything out or making updates.
My friends and I are considering attending DragonCon for 2019 and I've heard trying to get a room at one of the host hotels is crazy competitive. When do hotels for DragonCon normally go out and is it like a lottery like SDCC?
