Hotels include "host" hotels and "overflow" hotels in the downtown Atlanta area. DragonCon rate room reservation availability varies by hotel. Blocks of rooms may be released at different times or all at once on a scheduled day/time. Again varies by hotel. "Sold Out" or "Not Available" does not necessarily mean all the rooms are taken but that they have not been released to be reserved yet.
It's much too early for any 2017 guest announcements. Don't expect much until after the new year. As this year's con just finished the guest list has not yet been cleared. I'll post the link to the guest page once it has been reset for 2017 so there is no confusion.
John Sheppard - thunkable, whumpable but absolutely NOT shippable - he's mine and I'm keeping him.
I'm so crossing my fingers for Jacqueline, Peter and Suanne back again! They were so so so awesome. I'm sure how DC is for repeat guests, but I sure would go just for them if they came back.
Hotel is booked near Atlanta airport. All other hotels aren't available and the less expensive hotels have already double the rates, especially the ones near the convention.

Thanks, a friend(who I may be volunteering for) already gave me advice. My hotel will take me to the nearest Marta station. This is my first Dragon Con.
Wow...within 24-hour period after Dragon Con opened con hotel reservations, the con hotels sold out. From what I read on the official FB page, people who stayed at con hotels in previous years received vouchers for hotel bookings to make upcoming con reservations. No wonder the hotels filled so quick. Waiting for airlines to open flights between Aug 31-Sept 5.

I suggest looking at the first timer tag at the Dragon-Con Livejournal community.

Some times you get lucky & get something as the con time gets closer because people can't make it and cancel their reservations.

I can't afford those room rates to book on my own. I'm barely going to make it for four nights at my current hotel which is less than $500. Another factor is I don't know anyone to share room costs. I don't have the deposit money either.
