Las Vegas - Jan 21, 2009 - Many of the NAB Show's official partner hotels in Las Vegas have lowered rates by 20 to 40 percent below earlier offerings during peak show dates between April 19 - 22, according to Expovision, the NAB's housing-management partner. Nights before and after the peak dates have also been discounted.

According to the NAB, the sluggish economy, reduced tourism and higher inventory have allowed the hotels to reduce their rates. The rates are available through NAB housing, and may require booking by Jan. 30.
