If you went through the process last year (and even if you didn’t) there are some important things to make note of so you are prepared and more likely to succeed at getting the hotel of your preference for SDCC.
Here is some of the information as posted on the official Comic-Con.org site
As everyone knows from past experience, Comic-Con’s discounted hotel rates means rooms sell out very quickly. This year we have come up with a number of solutions that we think will help the reservation process:
• In an effort to equalize the amount of time each participant spends on the request form, a total of 6 hotel choices will be required. No participant can provide more, or less, than 6 hotel choices.
• There are more hotel rooms available than ever before. Most of them are on the Comic-Con Shuttle routes.
• Once confirmed, all hotel reservations will require a deposit of two night’s room and tax for each room booked. This will encourage people to release unwanted rooms in advance so people on the wait list can reserve them.
• Hotel reservation deposits are fully refundable until April 30, 2013.
• For cancellations received from May 1 to June 1, 2013, a cancellation fee equal to one night’s room and tax will be charged. The cancellation fee will be deducted from your deposit.
• Starting on June 2, 2013, ALL DEPOSITS ARE NONREFUNDABLE.
