"It's just like last year!"
If you attended MarsCon 2003 or 2006 you should remember the Holiday Inn Select by the Mall of America and Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport. Just like last year; the Holiday Inn Select will be our base of operations for 2007. To add to your sense of deja vu, room rates will be just like last year, $89 + tax for a regular room and $99 + tax for suites. Parties will be grouped together on the 13th floor, close to the Con Suite and Krushenko's ( just like last year.)
To reserve a party room, please contact MarsCon directly via mail, email or party room request form. Party room rates are the same as for sleeping rooms. To reserve a sleeping room for MarsCon 2007, call 952-854-9000 or 1-800-HOLIDAY, and make sure to mention "MarsCon" in order to get the reduced rate. Taking a room at the hotel is a wonderful way to enhance your convention experience. It gives you a home base, a place to park your stuff, entertain friends, and land whenever you finish with partying throughout the convention weekend...not to mention it makes the host hotel very happy with our multifarious convention.
The Holiday Inn Select offers FREE HIGH SPEED WIRELESS INTERNET in all guest rooms and a full-service health club with a whirlpool spa, sauna, tanning and massage facilities. There is a Junior Olympic sized pool, gift shop, video arcade, business center, full service lounge and an on-site restaurant which offers daily breakfast buffets. Kids 12 and under eat free. Complimentary shuttles are available to transport you to or from the hotel, the mall, and the airport throughout the convention weekend.
The hotel is at Three Appletree Square, Bloomington, MN 55425. You can find it easily by going to I-494 & 34th Avenue South in Bloomington.
For drivers, free parking is available at the hotel. The ramp has low clearance, but there is an open air lot immediately adjacent to it where you may park your over-sized land speeders.
For folks planning to use LRT to travel to MarsCon, the Hiawatha Line (Route 55) goes right by the Holiday Inn Select. Bloomington Central Station is about a block-and-a-half walk to or from the hotel. Rail fares are the same as local bus fares ($2.00 during rush hours, $1.50 at all other times). No express charges apply. Seniors, youth, Medicare card holders, and people with disabilities qualify for reduced fares during non-rush hours. FFI: 1-800-NEW-RIDER or Metrotransit.org.
