This month on the Dragon Con Report, we’re joined by Russ from the Dragon Con-Connection: Rooms, Roommates & Ride Facebook group. Time to recap some of this year’s challenges in the never ending struggle dealing with Dragon Con hotels.
Booking a room for Dragon Con in downtown Atlanta is no small feat, especially if you are after one of the 5 host hotels. Our discussion delves deep into the challenges, heartaches, surprises and hiccups involved. We navigate through the maze of sudden policy changes, unexpected charges, online waiting room disasters and annual Passkey annoyances that can catch even the most seasoned con-goer off guard.
The Dragon Con Hotel Hunger Games is an annual tradition. It’s full of anticipation, multiple open windows and frustration. We’re here to share our wealth of anecdotes, tips, and cautionary tales. From the adrenaline rush of snagging the perfect room to the pitfalls of Passkey, we try to unravel the shenanigans of the past few months and discuss what changes we hope to see when the next year rolls around.
Russ brings his expertise from the trenches of the Dragon Con-Connection group, offering up some insider knowledge to help fellow attendees make the most of their hotel experience.
So buckle up and get ready for a wild ride as we peel back the curtain on the Dragon Con hotel blocks. Whether you’re a seasoned veteran or a first-time attendee, our discussion will hopefully prepare you to expect the unexpected and perhaps save you from a future headache when it comes time to book your own hotel room.
Or if nothing else, we all can commiserate with each other over the constant frustrations we deal with each time the Hotel Hunger Games come around.
