Win a week in a downtown Austin hotel for SXSW
The kind folks at SXSW are offering the opportunity to win a sweet place to bunk during the 2009 event, and all you have to do to enter is make sure you’re registered for the event—film, interactive, music or the whole deal—by November 14. One lucky registrant will receive five complimentary nights at the downtown Residence Inn Austin, just footsteps from the Convention Center headquarters.
Rooms there in the SXSW block go for $217 a night plus taxes, which means the prize is valued at over $1,200. Some of the Baby-sitters have stayed at the Residence Inn in the past and it’s a fine crib to use as a home base for the conferences and festivals. Every room has a queen bed, a sleeper sofa and a full kitchen area for those extremely rare times you might tire of Tex-Mex. There’s also free internet access, tasty, free hot breakfast buffet and a downstairs Starbucks.
