Level Up Your TwitchCon San Diego Experience: Why Gaslamp Hostel is Your Best Spawn Point!

Hey, Twitch fam! Mark your calendars because TwitchCon is heading back to San Diego on October 17, 2025. For all you streamers, viewers, cosplayers, and gaming enthusiasts gearing up for an epic weekend, you're probably already thinking about where to stay to make the most of the experience. If you want to optimize your TwitchCon adventure without breaking the bank, Gaslamp Hostel is your ultimate choice!

We've proudly hosted TwitchCon attendees in previous years, and we're hyped to welcome you back. Here’s why we’re the perfect home base for your TwitchCon San Diego journey:

The San Diego Convention Center is just a short walk down 5th Avenue from Gaslamp Hostel.

Proximity: Walk to the Action!

San Diego's Convention Center can feel like a world away if you're stuck in traffic or waiting for ride-shares. But imagine this: rolling out of bed, grabbing a quick bite, and then taking a leisurely stroll directly to the convention center which is only 5 blocks from Gaslamp Hostel.

We're located right in the vibrant Gaslamp Quarter. No expensive Ubers, no battling for parking, and no wasting precious time commuting. You'll be able to pop back to the hostel to drop off your swag, recharge, or even change into your next cosplay with ease. More time at the Con, less time in transit – it’s a no-brainer!

And if you are driving in, Gaslamp Hostel has several parking passes that will save you $$ and the hassle of finding street parking or an expensive garage.

Save money and enjoy the coloful Gaslamp Hostel full of original artwork.

Game On for Your Wallet: Economical & Smart

Let's face it, between tickets, exclusive merch, and all the amazing food San Diego has to offer, TwitchCon can get pricey. Why spend a huge chunk of your budget on an overpriced hotel room when you can get a comfortable, secure, and social stay at a fraction of the cost?

Hostels are renowned for being budget-friendly, and Gaslamp Hostel is no exception. Our rates mean more money in your pocket to spend on meet-and-greets, limited-edition drops, or that delicious San Diego craft beer. Plus, with a communal kitchen, you can save even more by preparing some of your own meals, fueling up without constantly hitting expensive restaurants. The hostel also includes a light daily breakfast with your stay. Think of it as investing in your TwitchCon experience, not just your bed!

More Than Just a Bed: The Gaslamp Hostel Experience

Beyond the unbeatable location and wallet-friendly prices, Gaslamp Hostel offers an atmosphere that perfectly complements the TwitchCon spirit. You'll be surrounded by fellow travelers, many of whom are likely attending the same event! It's a fantastic way to meet new people, share your hype, and even find new stream buddies.

And because we love our TwitchCon guests, we go the extra mile! This year, we're not only bringing back our special welcome gift for all TwitchCon attendees staying with us, but we're also adding exciting prize giveaways !

So, when you're planning your TwitchCon San Diego adventure, don't just book a room – book an experience. Choose Gaslamp Hostel and make your TwitchCon the most convenient, affordable, and fun yet!

See you in San Diego!
