Hotel Counts...o.O
« on: September 05, 2006, 02:14:52 am »
Ok so I know that to get the cheapest room stay you have to have more people correct? But at what point does the room become so crowded you want to strangle people? At what number do you think is max for a room? And of course on your most crowded night just how many people were in your hotel room?

Strangulation came at about 9+ people
Maxing out a room at 7 is about right.. then... after that just get two rooms
As for max # in my room... 13... We had 13 people in our room one night...

Well, each hotel actually suggests how many people are allowed to be staying in a room at any given time.

I shared a room with 4-5 people, depending on the night, + tons of stuff.

But in the past, one year we had about six people all staying in a room, and that was crazy making, especially since none of them shared in the cost like they said they would.

Once a long time ago (Sakura Con 2001) I ended up staying in a pretty small room with 8 people. That was a "share a room or don't get to go at all" situation, though, as we'd waited until the last minute and ended up sharing with some friends who already had a reservation.

The worst I've ever had for one night was 9 people, (at Sakura Con again, several years ago). However, that's because there were some minors (17 years old, each of them ><; ) who had been foolhardy enough to come to the con and plan to spend three full nights AWAKE with no room to stay in. It was 1am and no one else was still up, so our choice was to allow them stay in our room or let them be forced off of the hotel grounds without transportation.

Fortunately(?), they were embarrassed enough that they wedged themselves in a corner and didn't take up any real space. And we had a pretty big room, to begin with. It was only for one night.

This year at Kumori Con I wasn't in a terribly overstuffed room. The main problem with room-sharing, besides the mess, is people waking up and going to bed at different times. I wish I didn't have so many friends who insist on arranging groups of more than 6 people.

wow :shock: i'd think i would start strangling people after 8, but 20!!???? can i assume they didn't all stay the night?

next time have 2 people get 2 rooms just in case and that way if a room is not needed then they always cancel a reservation

Next year I am gonna try for one of the second floor left side suites. Better view and so much bigger than regular rooms... We started out in a room with a queen and 4 people. We switched rooms to a room with two doubles and kept to 4 people till the last night when we had 5 people and thats just cause we were lucky enough to have a sexy Sanji that was too tired to go to his hotel! We had to use one of the hotel carts to move our stuff..... the entire thing was full..... the horror the horror! Then the elevator tried to kill us....*shivers in remembered terror*

We had six people in our room Friday and Saturday night. We then went down to five cause a guy had to leave. *shrugs* We all got beds that night. ^_^ My friend Bre and I were in the couch bed, Jenova and Cid were in one bed while Man-Yuna and crossdressing Sasuke(Hikaru.Maxwell) were in the other bed. Hehehehe...

Interesting nights.

Did they all sleep in there or were just in and out of there? We had 13 people actually try to sleep in the room and mind you the oxford rooms are tiny in comparison to most of the redlion rooms I saw. Now really people if you are gonna stay in a hotel where the convention is being held.. close your doors.. I saw alot of people randomly walk into hotel rooms thinking they were more con viewing rooms and such XD... oh and sorry Kylite for making you walk around with me at the second dance to find my guardian. -.- :P silly guardians... just two more years and I can go as an adult... :P... stupid october bday XD

I stayed with some friends, seven in a room, and was fortunate to sleep in a bed. I would have had no problem sleeping on the floor if need came to it, though. But we almost always had at least two or three people over hanging out at one point or another. One even left us a party pack of 7-up!

This is a rumor I heard about the mini-fridges in the Red Lion. They have devices in the fridges that know when you put something in to keep cool, and the hotel will charge you for using the fridge. Does anyone know if this is true or not?

I wasn't at a convention or anything, but I have been in a room with 40+ people. There was five beds in there too. This was in the philippines and everybody that was there was a relative of some sort.

O.o

Well, my room didn't even have a mini-fridge in it.  I don't know if that was the case for everyone else though.

And something tells me that's not true.  I've stayed in a lot of hotels and I've never heard about that before.
