I stayed at the Hyatt this year when I went and even used award points and it was fine. They even had the shuttle buses that take you to the event. I'm with you and usually like to stay at the show's Host hotel but these prices are just crazy!

Nice one Marriott. Increasing pricing to $2067 for 2 nights while the event is on. It’s not that I can't afford it, I won't pay extortionate rates.
