Worldcon 2015 - Davenport Historical and Parties...I Mean Meetups

As most conventions of any size do, the Worldcon 2015 room parties...I mean meetups...were held in the Davenport Historic. They had to change the name of room parties to meet-ups because the hotel management did not like the connotations.

The Davenport historic is a beautiful place filled with early 1900's charm without the class and racial barriers.

Even the coffee stall looks classy!

There were meetups for book publishers, clubs, and Worldcon bid parties in the rooms. It was fun to climb or descend floor by floor to sample the conversation, food and drink that each meet-up had to offer. They generally started at 8pm and continued till the am.

The convention rate was reasonable for the rooms here as well, only $10 more than our hotel! It was a 15 minute walk away though from the majority of the panels although some panels were here. Above is the Girl Genius ball where earlier there was a two hour class of dances from 1700-1910's.
