Indeed. Not only is it small, it isn't where corporate bean counters
put their attention, which is air fare, hotel, and per diem.
this is not universally true. With cheaper air fares and not staying
...
Understood, but you are fortunate to find cheap airfares from where
you happen to live. Also note that the meeting rooms have to be paid
for,
either by filling our room block at the main hotel, or with hard cash.
Oh. This is the 'what if everyone does it' argument.
Given that they "everyone" doesn't go to the cheaper place now, what makes you
think that reducing the meeting fees will cause those (types of attendees)
currently staying in the conference hotel will not continue to do so?
There are multiple factors that come into the choice of hotel. For some, price
dominates. For others convenience to the event and comfort in their room are
more important.
That won't change.
