best bet is to call them and ask.

and soon. booking a lot of rooms at short notice isn't fun i'd assume.

Re: Championship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

Thanks for the advice. But there was a post the other day saying something about not letting any teams stay at the Omni. Its really disappointing because we were ALL really looking forward to staying there!

Re: Championship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

Hm. If that's the case, then good luck to all of you who had planned to stay at the omni, hotels are filling up quick...


We'll probably end up seeing a few of you at the Marquis!

Re: Champion Ship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

YEP. We were there last year too! Same hotel - YES; Same Atlanta Division - Let's hope!

Back at the Westin...AGAIN.

Re: Champion Ship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

The Westin is really a nice hotel, minus the elevator situation. So either you need to be super high (top 1/3rd) to get their own bank, or low enough to use the stairs, we opted for this route.

Re: Champion Ship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

I agree, the Westin is a beautiful hotel, but the elevator situation is a rather HUGE situation after 6:45am and anytime after 7pm. We've been there for the past 2 (maybe 3?) years and it's been nothing but spectacular, but I was hoping for a change. We've been all over the hotel, last year closest to the bottom on the 14th floor. We tried taking the stairs from the 38th floor (where the view is amazing, btw) the year before, but ran into a locked exit. Regardless, I'm sure it'll be a blast again.

now at the Marriott Marquis, anybody wana room up and split costs? please PM me if interested.

Re: Championship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

254 has apparently been relocated from the Omni to the Marriott Marquis.

Re: Championship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

Team 1649 will be staying at the Marriott Marquis...

Re: Championship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

Yeah if you are staying at the Westin the elevators arent really a thing to rely on much. Unless you get lucky and one happens to be near your floor. I remember we had to be in the lobby at around 730 last year and we left the room at 720 the elevator didnt come in five minutes, so we ran down to the lobby. We were on the 40-something floor and at first we ran all the way to the basement. So wear comfertable shoes that you can run in. ^_^

Re: Championship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

Thanks for the warning Elgin. I checked with Kim and we HAVE been booted from the Omni and will now be at the Marriott I believe.

Re: Championship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

Team 39 is happy to stay at Marriott Marquis for the second year.
Can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Championship 2008: Whos staying where?
 

768 will be at the Days Inn downtown, along with 340... in talking to the folks from Steele Meetings, we heard that 40 teams had to be relocated from the Omni - a real shame.

Come on over to Days Inn and visit, everyone!

I love staying at the Westin, the location is very convenient for us. There is a McDonalds about 50 feet away, the Hard Rock is about another 50 feet away and then there is some random mini-mall with a decent sized food court that is about 150 feet away. Also we're about a 7-10 minute walk from the Dome and The Congress Center. If anyone at the Westin wants to hang just send me a PM and I can give you my contact info.

P.S. Anyone staying at the Westin, If you know you need to be somewhere early in the morning leave your room about 10-15 minutes ahead of time because sometimes (morning especially) the elevators will take that long.
