Gah, THIS.  So much.

Though depending on what cons one is used to, I can see thinking the Fanime hotels expensive (I don't, but I'm used to thinking in terms of California hotel rates).  I remember looking at the rates for NDK and being shocked at how cheap they were -- though I think they're roughly on par with Fanime's this year.

Really, you want 'expensive' hotels, look at AX.  Fanime's are more than reasonable, especially given the timing and location.
2012 Plans:
  • Gypsy Queen / Kaya Syokka (Trinity Blood)
  • Risai (Juuni Kokki/Twelve Kingdoms)
  • Shusui (Saiunkoku Monogatari)
  • others TBD

The room rates are very reasonable and fair, and I'm very glad I booked early because the San Jose Hilton is now booked solid.  Dang, I knew it would go fast but that's crazy! Anyhoo, question - I got my confirmation back from the Fanime Housing but the hotel itself has not directly contacted me yet about my reservation - should I be concerned or is this the norm?  Sorry if this is a newb question, my first Fanime and my first time booking a room this way.
FANIME 2010 COSPLAY PLANS!

Friday - Wander (Shadow of the Colossus)
Saturday - Xellos (SLAYERS NEXT)
Sunday - Reimi Sugimoto (Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 4)
           - Hitokiri Battousai (Rurouni Kenshin)

That's totally normal. The hotel hasn't got your individual booking info yet, they usually transfer it all from the Fanime housing to the hotels much closer to the con. In past years, I never even got direct confirmation from the Hilton, only the CMR Housing group.

Sooo....... I'm hoping there is going to be more rooms opened soon?????
Pretty much every hotel is booked solid except for the fairmont v_v I remember vaguely that last year this same thing happened.... I ended up booking my room in March or so.... I wonder if I'm to expect the same???

Many thanks to the FanimeCon 2010 Housing team for quickly resolving the issue I had with my reservation.
I appreciate your help!

If you want suicide Hotel Rates AX is nothing.  Try the Convention Hotels of the San Diego Comic Con.  Once you look at this you might as well jump into a rapid waterfall because they love to wash away your monies.  Have a look at this.

Not to mention only ONE HOTEL is open for AX ever since THEY STARTED TO TAKE RESERVATIONS.
In contrast, when Fanime opened up their hotels all of them were available from the start.
