I don't know why but Derek Hatchard didn't want to return to the magnificent Imperial Palace hotel for Mix08 this year. Yep the Imperial Palace is cheap but it feels like a 70's hotel in desperate need of a refresh. One thing for sure, I won't stay at the Venetian. Even with the conference discounted price, it's still $269/night. Derek found a good deal at the Treasure Island hotel @ $119/night and that hotel is located accross the street facing the Venetian. Nice!
He also suggested that the T.I. would be the unofficial offsite hotel for the Canadians attending Mix.
I don't know if it's because of Mix but the Treasure Island even has a show called "Sirens of I.T."
