Otakon 2010 Hotel Information

Have questions about hotels? Check the hotel section of our FAQ page. Failing that, ask the hotel directly; their policies always trump whatever we might tell you.

After receiving a generally positive response from this last year, we have signed up with Visit Baltimore to manage our members’ hotel reservations for Otakon 2010. Because of this we get to keep some of the better room rates that we had from last year, although due to the economy we couldn't keep them all at last year's rates.

Once there fill out the form and it will give you the most up to date list of rooms in a single hotel that meet your request.

Note About "Sold Out" Hotels: Just because the Otakon room rate is sold out, it never hurts to call once in a while to confirm whether or not the room block *REALLY* is sold out. You can occasionally get lucky with someone dropping their reservation. Also, a sold out room rate doesn't necessarily mean the hotel is completely sold out. However, rooms booked OUTSIDE of the Otakon room blocks are subject to standard hotel pricing. We cannot secure or guarantee any prices outside of our room blocks : this means that while a room might normally be $169 under the Otakon rate, it might be $250+ if booked outside of the Otakon room block.

Room rates generally do NOT include parking fees. Please check with the hotel for the exact rate. Parking will run anywhere from $10 to $30 per night, depending on the hotel and the lot used.

Please refer to the map of hotels around the convention center if you're not clear where a particular hotel is located.

Alternatively you can check out this map for hotels that we may not have arrangements with.
