If you’ve received your hotel room block link and clicked it, you may have noticed you have a choice for rooms. Not only between one king bed or two queen beds. But also for location. The Marina Tower is the largest and most conveniently located, and has completely renovated rooms. Lanai rooms are quieter, also completely renovated, and are situated along the marina beside the Marina Tower in the not-as-tall tile-roof covered buildings of the aerial photo on our site. Finally, as of this answer being written, Bay Tower rooms have not yet been renovated, and are a short walk along the marina further into Harbor Island. The Bay Tower is not visible in our photo. We recommend booking early to get a Marina Tower or Lanai room, depending on your preference for location and possible views.

The Sheraton San Diego Resort allows one small to medium sized dog (with maximum weight of 40 pounds) per room. The hotel charges a non-refundable pet fee per stay of $150. No other pets are permitted.

Registration will open at noon on Friday, where you’ll receive your event badge, swag bag, pre-ordered books, and any merch that may have been available to order with your ticket. Our onsite bookstore will also be open Friday afternoon for convenient browsing and shopping. For locals, come anytime that afternoon. For out-of-towners, if you’re flying, we recommend coming in Friday morning or Thursday evening (or even earlier) if possible. Make it a long weekend and give yourself plenty of time to explore and enjoy San Diego. You won’t regret it.
