Comic-Con Opens Hotel Registration

San Diego's Comic-Con just opened up the "Early Bird Hotel Registration," for the July 21-24 event.  The hotels are requiring a minimum stay of three to four days and a non-refundable deposit.  While I understand the popularity of Comic-Con is driving demand, these conditions seem a little off-putting to say the least.   The least expensive hotel is asking $179 per night, the most expensive starts at $240.  These are not five star locations that compete with the Convention Center hotels such as the Manchester Grand Hyatt.

No wonder Airbnb is becoming a popular alternative to hotels.  In full disclosure, we hope to be competing for your business against these hotels, with our own Airbnb offering.  We plan to provide airport transportation as well as transportation to and from the Con.  Breakfast will be on offer as well. 

My sons have been regulars at Comic-Con for years.  We look forward to sharing our love for this piece of San Diego with out-of-town guests.
