Hi All,
Well we have an official BrickFest PDX hotel, the Red Lion. Details and photos
are on the BrickFest PDX web site (http://pdx.brickfest.com/hotels.php). The
Red Lion is located across the northeast corner from the Oregon Convention
Center, about a 3 minute walk (maybe a 1 min walk actually) from the OCC front
doors. It is also directly on the MAX (PDX light rail) train line; which comes
directly from the airport (less then $2.00). Newly remodeled, this is one of the
nicest hotels in the area, and includes a big lobby with online PC free to
guests (20 minute limit courtesy).
Special BrickFest Rate: $69/night (regular $110/night). I have heard that others
have found other hotel rates for slightly cheaper (~$5/night) but they are
either farther away or much lower quality (according to Steve Barile who has
personally been to all of them!). We aren’t getting any kick backs from the
hotel, I just think it would be a lot of fun to all be in the same place…
midnight lobby parties etc…

Sounds great! Can international attendees also get this rate? Do they have
internet bookings? If so, could you please post a link on that page? If not, is
there anyone going that would like to share a room?

The Red Lion has just extended their $69
rate until 15 days prior to the event. So, make your reservations before the
29th.
As of right now 21 days till BrickFest PDX !!!!
I can’t wait. This is going to be a blast.
