FAQ
How can I book more days?
First, book whatever dates you can. Next, call 1-800-648-5080 to request the additional days you need.
Will the con get more rooms?
We already have all the rooms we can get and have a vast majority of the hotel. The hotel always reserves some rooms for contract obligations and high-roller guests. Overflow hotels with shuttle service are actively being negotiated and considered.
Why did I get an email telling me extra people are $30 per night?
Automated systems may send you an email with this message. If you booked in our convention block, this fee is waived. If you booked off-block, this fee applies to you.
How can I avoid elevators?
You can request a smoking room to be placed on the 1st floor, which is now the only smoking floor in the hotel.
How can I room next to my friends?
After booking online, just call 1-800-648-5080, ask to be placed together, and provide your confirmation numbers.
Can I use marijuana?
No. The hotel does not allow consumption or possession of marijuana on-property, in hotel rooms, or even in your car in the parking lot.
What’s the best way to bring in my luggage from my car?
You may not use the front entrance as a loading zone, and you may not use the bell carts. Please park in self-parking, and then hand carry your luggage to your room. We recommend bringing your own folding cart. Or, you can park in the front entrance, and let the valet parking staff and bell staff move your car and luggage. Make sure to carry some cash for tips.
Shipping
To ship things to the GSR, you will send them to their Business Center. You can find their pricing here.
