I know you guys are all pumped up on Shmoocon right now however with RSA/Metricon right around the corner I thought I'd share my recent booking experience. Once again this year I was able to "beat" the RSA conference pricing on hotels for RSA using Hotels.com (see receipt below.) This year I'm staying at the Hotel Fusion which is a 2.5 star hotel (free high speed internet.) If you are like me and rather spend your per diem on steak, sushi and lobster this is a good bet, else I might suggest staying at the Prescott Hotel - a Kimpton Hotel for $178 a night. I did last year and it was very nice. Here is the location of the Hotel Fusion in proximity to the Moscone: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=140+Ellis+St ,+san+francisco,+ca&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=54.005807,53.964844&ie=U TF8&hq=&hnear=140+Ellis+St,+San+Francisco,+California+94102&z=17 <http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=140+Ellis+S t,+san+francisco,+ca&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=54.005807,53.964844&ie= UTF8&hq=&hnear=140+Ellis+St,+San+Francisco,+California+94102&z=17> Just as an FYI, I had a snafu with hotels.com where I had to call the hotel directly to verify my reservation. While I had the guy on the phone I asked him if I could directly people in "my group" directly to him and he said he'd gladly take reservations directly. His name was Al and his number is 1-415-568-2525 you can also book on their website at www.hotelfusionsf.com <http://www.hotelfusionsf.com> (Same pricing as hotels.com) And lastly, here is a fabulous "bar style" (not too fancy) sushi restaurant Sakana - 605 Post St. (415) 775-7644 Link: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&gl=us&hl=en&q=sushi&ie=UTF8&r adius=0.5&sll=37.781807,-122.41647&sspn=0.01238,0.018346&rq=1&ev=p&hq=su shi&hnear=&ll=37.787624,-122.416749&spn=0.011955,0.018346&z=16&iwloc=A&c id=10916611084149385937 <http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&gl=us&hl=en&q=sushi&ie=UTF8& radius=0.5&sll=37.781807,-122.41647&sspn=0.01238,0.018346&rq=1&ev=p&hq=s ushi&hnear=&ll=37.787624,-122.416749&spn=0.011955,0.018346&z=16&iwloc=A& cid=10916611084149385937> See you all in March! safe travels!
