What some have been waiting for THE HOTEL BLOCK IS OPEN!!! https://www.furfest.org/attend/hotels
Frankly we are getting to CRUNCH time for MFF and the hotels. Even though the con is still 2 months away. You might think that is crazy since there are 11 hotels on that list. Believe me they will go fast. If your going to try for one of these I am not joking when I say you have to act NOW!!! The more people know about this the more they will want it. Last year I heard 3 hotels sold out with in 24 hours of the hotel block being open. 5 more in 72. MFF is a popular con, I won’t get into the crowd.
Even with 11 hotels there are no guarantees I can not say for certain that a hotel you want isn’t already sold out. Frankly a lot of hotels in the area already are, and they are not on the Hotel Block. Even the hotel where a friend and I are planning to stay is already sold out.
Located near O’Hare airport and also in an area where conventions take place. There are a lot rooms in the area. Doubt it pull up The Convention Center on Google Map and click on that tab for hotels. Go back about 5 miles. That is how many hotels are sold out by Nov 1st. I really wish I was making that up. Last year I spoke to someone who was staying at a Downtown Chicago hotel for MFF because they couldn’t find anything closer.
Seriously the only way to get a room for MFF is book it was early as possible. I made my reservation back in April.
I wish you all Good Luck, you will need it
