Marriott for me. I've been in the Marriott since 2005 (my first fanime) so I think I'll stay there.

Hilton this year. Normally my friends and I stay at the Marriott, but since it's been renovated we decided to stay there this year and check it out.

awesome? in what way??  Awesome as in standing until your feet walk away without you than rather standing for an endless amount of time just to wait on a full elevator and then having to start the whole insane cycle over again? XD

On the rare occasion where it doesn't stop on every floor, they haul ass. Hilton's are just as fast though. Fun as hell, though.

I found it was faster it just ride the elevator up then try to wait for one that was going down and had room for another.

Stayed there my first Fanime in 2003, very nice hotel.

As for me, Fanime 2004 - upcoming Fanime, I'll continue to book my rooms at the Marriott. I like it mainly because it is connected to the con. The elevator situation is more of a nuisance than an issue, for me that is. My friend absolutely hates the elevators at the Marriott. Not only is it always crowded, but the speed causes him to get nauseous...and then the constant stop at every level. Lawl

Hilton for the first time. I've stayed at Marriot and the Sante Claire before. So i'm looking forward to seeing the differences once more this year. Hope it's worth the price. I might just return to the Marriot or Sante Claire next year if not impressed. :p

I just double checked, I'm staying at the Marriot (first time) and my group is getting a Junior Suite (first time).

The Marriot is on the side where all the anime screenings and maid cafe is right? I prefer the Hilton side myself but whatever works, I'm sure the extra little walk won't kill us lol.

The Marriott is where the Panels will be held. The video rooms are also on that side but in the convention center.  Fanimaid Cafe is on the Hilton side of the concourse.

Yeah, thats right. I usually like having a room at the Hilton due to it being close to the dance, the game room, and Starbucks lol

My friends and I really wanted a suite this year so we'll have to deal with it.

Fairmont~I don't really mind the small walk, it might even be refreshing in the mornings to help get the energy flowing again. 'Course there's always the Starbucks to help with that too xD and general con adrenaline (which I'm already feeling).

I've heard the first few floors can get quite loud in the mornings so it's the exact opposite for me; 7th or above.

Yeah I understand but I just hate the elevators, espcally because getting stuck in a elevator crammed full of people for hours with anime outside would kill me.
