Hello!
I have posted links to the room reservation forms for our two hotel
options in DC: <http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Accommodation>.
The two hotels we have group deals with are the Dupont Circle Hotel
and the State Plaza Hotel. The Dupont Circle is an incredibly cool
hotel with everything a traveling Wikimedian could want. The State
Plaza Hotel is not as awesome, but it is three blocks away from the
venue and costs less. (It's still a good hotel, all things
considered.) With both hotels, you are allowed to have a second person
stay with you for no additional cost—that way, you can split the costs
with someone.
We also have a sizable reservation at Hostelling International, but
due to the many people receiving scholarships we cannot open that
option up to the public right now.
We will be adding more options later, including more low-cost rooms as
well as links to cheap hotels in the suburbs. I understand that cost
is an issue for many attendees, so we are working to find
accommodations that will work for everyone.
Regards,
James Hare
