Where to Stay for Dream Con 2025 in Houston

Coming to Houston for Dream Con?

Dream Con is headed to Houston’s George R. Brown Convention Center from May 30 to June 1, 2025. Started by RDCWorld, this fast-growing anime and gaming convention brings together more than 25,000 fans for three days of panels, cosplay, tournaments, and after-hours events.

This year’s lineup includes a guest appearance by Megan Thee Stallion, who’s hosting a panel on creative storytelling and community-building. Whether you’re showing off your latest cosplay, competing in a Smash Bros bracket, or just here to vibe with the crowd—this is going to be a high-energy weekend in Downtown Houston.

While downtown conference hotels put you close to the sessions, they often create a bubble that insulates you from experiencing the authentic energy of Houston. Why limit yourself to a basic hotel room when you could immerse yourself in one of Houston’s most vibrant neighborhoods?

Lodgeur Midtown offers the perfect blend of convenience and local culture, allowing you to experience the real Houston while attending Dream Con. And you don’t need to book months in advance to secure your spot in this sought-after neighborhood.

Stay Close. Stay Comfortable. Stay at Lodgeur Midtown.

Hotels book up fast during Dream Con. Lodgeur offers a better option: a fully furnished apartment in Midtown Houston, just a short METRORail ride from GRB.

You’ll have space to spread out, recharge, and store all your gear—plus:
