To expand on me for the big 3:3 - MMM. Has the best pool! Location is good for Funko Fundays, Video Game stuff, and panel pickups. Beyond that it always felt like a munch longer walk for me. Personal run ins there, Will Wheaton at the bar and Cladio Sanchez in the pool.2 - HBF. Best Views. Location is great for Hall H & Ballroom, FX area, Stadium events and the convention hall in general. Probably my favorite room if you have3+ people in your group for size. Personal run ins there, just Dan Harmon.1 - Hard Rock. Best Atmosphere. Great location for off sites and very easy access to the show floor. Its across the train tracks....but just barely, easy walk everywhere. Rooms are really small for bigger groups....but they are the nicest quality to me. Personal run ins there: Walking Dead cast, Suicide Squad cast, Deadpool cast, Jason Mamoa, Ezra Miller, Chadwick Bossman, Harrison Ford.....and so many more. Bonus points as many big parties are in the hotel and depending on what floor your room is on...you may be able to walk right in to some.
Dang. The one year I got a room at the Hard Rock, I had no run-ins.Also, my views from the MMM have usually been better than the year I was at the Bayfront. Just depends on what side the room is on.
I've only stayed at the Marriot once between the two. I would definitely choose that place again if lucky. My friends and I would always buy alot of stuff so not having to take a shuttle and or walk long distances was a huge plus. The only downside to being that close was that we bought more than we should've ahaBesides being next to the convention center, you're closer to other places in Gaslamp (love going to Ralph's). Plus, I think there seems to be more Con stuff going in and around the Marriot.
I thought the panel swag redemption was at the MGH, not the MMM?
Agreed - I had a terrible view (Dole truck parking lot) every time I stayed at the Hilton Bayfront, bc I don't have Hilton status and I refuse to pay for the upgrade at check-in. But all the Marriott views I've had have been lovely (city side or ocean side).
True, guess I lump everything together on that side of convention center Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk
I do for sure! If I have to walk all the way down there it better be something good!
And as each year goes by the pedicabs look more and more appealing......think this is the year I start using them Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk
