If you are looking to stay somewhere else, check out your favorite travel website (hotels.com, kayak.com, etc.) for more options! There are numerous hotels in close proximity to downtown. Stay at a hotel slightly further away and use the CBUS Circulator for free and easy transportation to to the Hyatt Regency and Greater Columbus Convention Center. It runs every 10-15 minutes 7am-9pm Mon-Thurs, 7am-12am Fri, 9am-12am Sat, and 10:30am-6pm Sun. You could also use Columbus’ bike sharing system CoGo which has numerous stations located downtown for easy transportation to and from your hotel.

As always, check out our Travel & Lodging page for more details.

Want to bring a guest to the reception or banquet?

In response to popular demand, we have now added the ability to add extra tickets for the banquet or reception for your friend or significant other who doesn’t want/need to attend the rest of the meeting. If you’ve already registered, go to the confirmation email you received and Modify Your Registration. Then add your Guest.
