Tomorrow the host hotel block opens for booking! So today I wanted to take the time to tell you a little bit about the Crowne Plaza Atlanta Perimeter at Ravinia.
1. Either valet or self parking is available on site. In the past, the hotel has offered a reduced daily rate for JordanCon attendees. Parking is in a garage under the hotel. In 2024, an alternate parking garage was available as well, around the corner from the hotel.
2. Food is available on site. The Crowne Plaza offers a grab-and-go convenience food selection, a coffee shop, two bars (upstairs and down), light eats upstairs, and a full-service restaurant open for breakfast and dinner. With JordanCon in the hotel, breakfast that in the past consisted of a buffet meal, usually eggs, potatoes, meat(s), and a breakfast bread like pancakes or waffles, plus the usual continental items as well.
3. If you smoke or vape, there’s an area to the far left of the hotel entrance (turn left as you go out the hotel doors). There are at least three picnic tables there, along with butt cans and a trash can. Remember to help keep this area clean!
4. Behind the hotel is a beautiful park area. It’s a great place to take your food delivery (no eating in the hotel lobby), or to get away from the bustle of the con for a bit with a book. The park has some great places to take photos, and you can bet all the pro photographers at the event know the best spots!
5. If you’re a mermaid, there is a pool. It’s indoors on floor 2 and heated, so if you want to take a dip, you have that option.
6. The area surrounding the hotel boasts a ton of places for you to grab snacks and beverages for the room (Target and Publix are close by), or to go out to have a meal outside the hotel. UberEats, Grubhub, and the like are also available should you just want to chill in your room with some Chinese food.
7. Lastly, staying at the host hotel enhances your JordanCon experience. You have a place to store purchases from the Vendors Hall, a place to escape the crowds, a room to go back to with your ConSuite lunch, and a bed to stumble toward when you’re exhausted from a long night of dancing or gaming.
Tl;dr? The host hotel is the place to be for JordanCon 2025. The link opens November 2 at noon, so watch social media and your email to book.
