ROOM HOPPING
Room Hopping is back at the Hyatt. The idea of “Room Hopping” may be new to some of you. Room Hopping is where some sellers, collectors or groups open up their hotel room to anyone stopping by. This is how you might get a first shot at pipes for sale, vintage tobaccos available, meet up with old friends or make new friends. Share some of your favorite blends or drinks. Once you register for your room, leave the information on the room hopping easel found in the registration desk in the lobby or the smoking tent.
