Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center

[RedlightG20]

Haven't seen any topics on this yet.

This place is huge, and is apparently hiring thousands of people for jobs, including hundreds of bartenders and barbacks. It's set to open later this year, making it the largest hotel and convention center on the east coast.

What is everyone's opinion on this place? Will it serve to bring prominance to that area of PG county?

The original hotel in Nashville is known as 'NashVegas' and includes a river that has paid boat tours, all inside the hotel.

It's the only hotel I've stayed in where it's important for you to check how far the walk is from your room to the various conference centers. It's that big.

Maybe this one will be 'WashVegas'.

When I see this I think of

I just went to the one in Nashville right before New Years.

It's huge, but almost to the point where its ridiculous. Sort of overkill.

The rooms in the hotel were average, and the restaurants as well. Not to mention pretty much any drink was 10 bucks. Not that I typically mind, but I was thinking, hell this is Nashville.
