Hotel information for '09?

[Miha Krysu]

So I heard that Kcon was gonna be at the Hilton next year.  I was wondering which of the Hiltons it was.  This was my first Kcon and I really enjoyed it and wanted to make sure and book a room this far out.  If anyone could help me out, I would most appreciate it.

It's going to be this one, right on Sixth, it looks like.

And I'm in the same boat, I want to book a room for next year right away, but it'd be best to wait until the con staff get the code/con group discount set up with the hotel, that way you don't have to pay the full price for a room for the whole weekend.

actually its best to reserve the room NOW. then when the code is released, call and edit your reservation to use the code.

Ah, I didn't know you could do that! Wow, thanks for the tip, Kylite! ^_^

'09 is going to be fun x3

Holy sheet.... awesome hotel. I'm really looking forward to being there! Looks like there's going to be plenty of room to go around!

Smart elevators or whatever that was that was said...

Looks nice! I'm going to have to bring my Serenity cosplay from 2006 to take some cool looking pics.

[EveofAbyss]

I don't think it will be in the middle of the week like that. It will probably be Saturday, Sunday, Monday like it has been.

Wow, sweet. I'm definitely staying in the hotel this time.

I like the look of that golden staircase. I know it is unlikely, but it would make for some amazing photos. Not that it will be possible to keep it clear for even 1 second though, lol.

Maybe early in the morning...haha
but I agree, looks wonderful for photos!

[EveofAbyss]

Ah, that's an idea!  Late night photo sessions sound epic heh

Oooh I can't wait for KCon '09 information to be released. I want to get a hotel room as soon as possible! : D

[Kimiski]

Yeah we're ready to get our room as soon the dates for 2009 are released. I forgot about that particular fact.

I've created an official thread for more information in the Help section. Stickied and everything for safe keeping. I'll be posting more information once I have a look at the hotel itself.

I'm not going to lock this thread, it's just going to get buried and it's not the place to sticky it.
