Hotel FAQ

How many smoking rooms are available?
The Hyatt Regency is now a smoke-free facility. There are no smoking rooms available.
How much is parking?
It's FREE! We have a 3-story parking garage and there are no gates to fight with!
Does the hotel have Internet access?
Yes. In-room wired Internet access is free. There is also a wireless service but there is a charge for that.
How can I get a refrigerator in my room?
Every room in the hotel is equipped with a small refrigerator.
Is there a secure place to store my laptop/jewelry/special edition Nerf ball?
Yes. Every room has a safe which even includes a plug for you to charge your laptop while you secure it.
How do I get a room on the party floor?
Make a normal reservation and contact the BayCon Hotel Division at parties13@baycon.org to have your room moved to the party floor. The party floor sells out early so make sure to reserve your room soon.
Can I bring my cat/dog/iguana/drama llama?
No. The Hyatt Regency is a Pet Free Zone, though documented and jacketed service animals are welcome.
Can I get there on public transit?
Yes; VTA's Great America Station is across from the Convention Center. This is served by the Mountain View-Winchester Light Rail line. (This is not the same as Amtrak/ACE's Great America Station, which is closer to VTA's Lick Mill Station.) If you're coming from Caltrain, you'll most likely want to transfer at Mountain View.
Is there a shuttle from the airport?
The hotel does not provide a courtesy shuttle. The least expensive way to get here from SJC is to take the free Airport Flyer to the Metro/Airport Station, then transfer to a Mountain View train.
Whom do I contact with questions or problems?
E-mail hotel13@baycon.org and our elite team of troubleshooters will help answer all of your queries, ponderings, or problems.
