The Hyatt is sold out.

Two days after posting to the main Arisia site and this livejournal community (in response to a posted question, not as an announcement post as promised, significantly lacking the "hotel" tag). I just got confirmation from innkeeper@arisia.

I am displeased. This may be the first Arisia I miss since I moved to this area.

I tried the overflow hotel once, and determined that it was not worth doing.

Hotel rooms at the Hyatt and the Courtyard

There have been some issues with blocking rooms in the Hyatt, which we are in the process of getting straightened out.  In the meantime, if you have tried to reserve a room and been unable to, send email to innkeeper@arisia.org to get on the waiting list, and we will do our best to get your reservation sorted out.  If you made a reservation, but did not get all of the nights you wanted, please include the reservation number(s).

Also, please note that the overflow hotel this year is the Courtyard by Marriott near Trader Joe's on Memorial Drive, rooms there are $99, and there will be a shuttle to the overflow hotel from at least 9am to 1am each day.  We are well aware that the shuttle is critical to those at the overflow hotel (and those who just want to get food) and we continue to focus on making that as good an experience as possible.

All hotel information and updates, as well as reservation links, will continue to be posted to http://2010.arisia.org/hotel .
