[Updated Sept 10, 2009: Reflecting the additional $30 off. All prior registrants will see this rate change automatically.]

Attention all Macworld Expo Attendees! TMO has again worked with our friends at IDG and the Hotel Milano to secure you another great deal at this, our preferred Moscone-area hotel! 

TMO readers (and yes, you podcast listeners qualify, too, of course!) can now use this special link to reserve rooms for stays during Macworld Expo 2010 at the Hotel Milano for only $155 per night ($30 off the regular attendee rate) AND get free WiFi thanks to the deal we were able to work out. That saves you almost $40 per night off the regular attendee rate.

About the Hotel Milano

The phrase "Don't judge a book by its cover" -- or in this case, its web site -- is very true here. The Hotel Milano's website doesn't begin to do this place justice, but we know more -- this place is nice.

The TMO staff has stayed at the Milano exclusively for Macworld Expo and WWDC over the past couple of years, and we've really enjoyed it, but that's not by accident.  You see, several years ago we sent our own Bryan Chaffin (perhaps the pickiest of all TMO staffers when it comes to accomodations) to visit a series of hotels in San Francisco, and he chose the Milano. He found the Milano to be the best fit for us, and here's why:

• King Bed rooms are the largest of all the hotels we saw
• Very close to the show
• 3 to 4 bars of AirPort reception in each room surveyed
• Comfortable desks in every room
• Many King rooms have couches, to boot!
• Jacuzzi and Steam Room available (a TMO favorite after a long day on the show floor!)
• Can't beat it for the price

Additionally during our stays I have personally found the accommodations and staff to be fantastic. It's a great location, comfortable rooms, and my last five stays there have had decent Wi-Fi service, even during Macworld Expo and WWDC when the place was packed!
