Run of house is usually "Room Assigned at Check-in" IE No guarantee on 1 or 2 beds ect. Although if they ar sold out of Std rooms when you check-in you could get a free upgrade to a suite or executive room at the ROH rate.
Rates seem nice, no unexpected leaps in price. I'm still interested to see how the discount affects them, though.
It does have suites several in fact, but I hearby call DIBS on behalf of the convention.
So ya know.... their ours.... OK?
:P
*blinks* yowsa
1 room with 2 beds and 2 adults (more spendy with 3 or 4)
209 per night + 12.5% tax per night
totaling over 700 bucks
(checking in the night before the convention and staying until the last day of the convention)
Cant wait to get the attendee/convention code and see what that does to the prices

This is the attendee rate. As posted above the rate for a 2 bed room at standard price is over 200 a night. Other then the exec tower it is 5 bucks more then last years attendee rate. I have not seen the interior yet but I will take pictures when I tour.
SWEET MERRY KWANZZA! That place is beautiful! I'm REALLY loking forward to next year now. Ijust hope that they have better elevators...
And EveoftheAbyss is right, splitting the money between several people is the best way to go.
We have the elevators of tomorrow! They'll talk to us and open our bottles of ramune while we ride in them! XD
Seriously though, that is some great news. I can't wait to see these smarty-pant elevators, heh.
hmm better reserve a room soon ._. if i recall the hilton has small rooms... (last one we were at at least did)
Might get a suite, not sure...
lets see, 4 girls, 12 diffrent cosplay outfits, wig heads, and stock for our AA table...
depending on the room size,
how soon does the main hotel fillup?
I want to book the room but I'm not sure when it is yet. I would assume it is the weekend before labor day again, but I could be wrong.
How many blocks out should I make the area map? I was thinking of making it big enough to stretch down to the waterfront to include Saturday Market.
In the lobby, there's a panel of like, twelve buttons with key holes and little read outs of what floor each elevator is on. If the Hilton feels like it, they can lock an elevator so it ONLY goes to the hotel rooms or ONLY goes to the con space. Wicked cool.
With an extra elevator car (4 instead of 3), the fact that they are much faster, and possible extra logic to optimize them, I would say the 2009/2010 elevators could easily work much better. But we'll have to see.
once they give us the "convention code" it will reduce prices MASSIVELY!
Those stairs... I really want to have someone take a picture of me going down them in my Yuna Wedding dress... with either lady-fiancee, a Seymour, or a Tidus in tow. XD
So total for the con for a room for $119 would be... $476 dollars for four days. $516 for the $129 rate, $556 for the $139 rate, and $596 for the $149 rate. But three days it would be...
$119*3=$357
$129*3=$387
$139*3=$417
$149*3=$447
Start saving up!
I have a question, if we book our room before the con code comes out can we add it in later?
codes arnt out yet but you can reserve them and then use the codes when they come out, something along those lines.
Hey everyone with the gigantic costumes and props. Remember that no one is forcing you to use those props and costumes, it is your choice. There is nothing that can be done about the size of the upstairs hallways.It should also be noted that props that are two large to occupy a 2'x2'x4' or a 6"x12"x7' region* will not be checked in at Gaming's bag check or allowed in gaming.
The main two floors and the lobby should be fine for you, also the building across the street should be ok.
The Third Floor will not be ok, there will not be room for that giant hammer to go past people into the various rooms (probably something like viewing rooms or workshop or tabletop gaming). I've already referenced my video of the third floor. I'll make sure that my next one actually goes upstairs and we can see what the hallways are like.
So that last picture is from the Executive Tower Salon right? Our new Karaoke Lounge?
Ooooh, a Karaoke Lounge with an under 21 bar would be so cooooool.
so i have a question ouo; ~ .You'll need a credit card, which usually implies that you're over 18, but you don't have to be 18 to book a room at most places.
how are all you underaged people/groups booking into the hotel ?
isn't someone over 18 required to check in , let alone stay in the hotel ?
cause i've just turned 17 & the friend i want to get a room with is still 16 .
but already i've read lots of people who are younger than me saying how they got their rooms & so on :'D .
stupid question , y / n ?
i still need a answer xD; .
Actually, for legal reasons you do have to be 18+ at pretty much any hotel. A lot are even 21+. Best to just call the hotel and ask.so i have a question ouo; ~ .You'll need a credit card, which usually implies that you're over 18, but you don't have to be 18 to book a room at most places.

I don't think this has been answered, but I'll be taking the MAX, and was wondering the best stop?Yeah, you can get off at Pioneer Courthouse and just walk up 6th ave several blocks and the hotel is right there.
I'm guessing the stop at Pioneer Courthouse square and then walk down Broadway Ave. to the hotel...Is this the closest/best???

If I ever get an appointment with the hotel for that tour I'll make sure the "check in age" is on my list of things to verify.

Single rate mean 1 person staying in the room, double would be two people staying in the room and so on. These rates are per night so if two people are staying in the room then you could split the cost.
Thank you so much that helps alot
As for room types:
Std King would be one king sized bed in a room
Std Dbl/Dbl would be two beds in the room probably queens but could be kings
ET Double Double is in the Executive tower across the street and would also have two beds. (These are suppose to be the nicer rooms thus the price. I am not sure what they come with yet)
Run of house is what ever they have. You could end up in any of the above, or a suite if that is all they had left.
They don't have any rooms with more than two beds. Though the exspensive suites do have a couch.
do you have a link to it I could use?
wait, I think you posted one earlier, I'll just go find it.
Unless you want to post another
*cough* please *cough*
How's access for someone eight feet tall?
I'm working on the new maps and once I've got them finished you'll see another update here. Cheers!
Nice I like it. Did you find out how much parking is a night? I would like to add that in with my total, so I can charge my friends >:3
And just to verify, on the events schedule it says live 1 and live 2. I'm assuming that "live 2" is the "events 2" room on the map in the pavilion on the plaza level?
We still do not have parking information. We are trying to get some more information on that. The hotel parking is not going to be available except for guests of the executive tower. The hotel parking is probably not going to be discounted.
If we have any discounts negotiated they will be with the parking lot to the south of the hotel on 6th and Salmon.And just to verify, on the events schedule it says live 1 and live 2. I'm assuming that "live 2" is the "events 2" room on the map in the pavilion on the plaza level?
The Pavilion Room is the Live Events room.
The Live Events room is going to be one room for registration, two rooms for the first half of the con, then one room again for the last half of the convention. I can never get the times right of when it switches.
I don't know where the reg desk will be set up on Friday night, but it will probably be right outside the Pavilion room. Next to the big stairs.

Does that mean that if you're staying in the main tower you can't use hotel parking? o.O
Actually I would absolutely love if we could have a staff assisted photoshoot on the stairs several times a day. Like after a big event gets done lining up we get all the cosplayers from X on the stairs, take a picture with a set number of cameras (10 sounds good if it's just one photographer) and then the people clear out and open the stairs up to the public.
People are going to WANT photoshoots with that marvelous staircase, we may as well have a staffer assigned to take care of it so that the inevitable inconvenience to other attendees is kept to a minimum. I think some photoshoots on the stairs is better than NO photoshoots on the stairs.
We'll see what happens though.
Hmmmm, well what if we don't completely block it? Like we line up single file next to one railing? People could still get through that way, so we wouldn't technically be blocking anything.
Can we get a moderator in here?
This is a Q&A thread not a complaint thread.
Thanks.
Then consider it official. Please use this thread for just hotel Q&A, which is what it was created for months ago.
:/ i wish you would have moved the con back over to vancouver so all the minors could go to the dances instead of having to go back to our rooms like we were told to do so ://

Portland Convention Centerrr, oh how I want you to host KCon.That would be nice and make more sense =D
Is parking still $20 PER night??
As long as the parking lot was secure so I'm not going to have to spend the weekend fretting over my car, and it's a better deal, I'm sure there's a good chunk of us who could care less about in/out privileges. :)
Since I'm completely hotel illiterate...
Are the room rates per person per night, or are they per room per night?
Basically I'm trying to understand what my husband and I will be paying per night to stay. And I couldn't find a 2010 update in here, so I wasn't sure what all had changed.
Kylite i think that car escort by the youjimbo for scared car owners is a swell idea and should be OFFICIALLY sanctuioned. Youjimbo are after all security. So why not officially have that?

Konnichi wa!
The current $35 registration is for all 3 days. It goes up as you get closer to con and hotels get booked up so you will want to register and book hotels as soon as you can. Saves you alot of money and worries about arrangements.
Yes, you can register online and there is great info and links on this page: http://www.kumoricon.com/registration (http://www.kumoricon.com/registration)
The staff here is always happy to help you. Have a great con ne.
