Hotel
BayCon is returning for our sixth year at the Hyatt Regency Santa Clara, located at 5101 Great America Parkway, Santa Clara, California, 95054. The room rate is $103 a night for either a single king or a double double room plus applicable state and local taxes. All convention space is accessible from inside the hotel. There are a number of food options available for your convenience in the hotel itself and a wide variety of restaurants in the vicinity.
Reservations for the BayCon room block are now closed. Rooms may still be available but there will be a higher per night charge than shown above. Please contact the Hyatt directly by going to http://www.santaclara.hyatt.com/en/hotel/home.html or calling 1-888-421-1442. You can still mention you are with BayCon and ask about a discount but there is no guarantee it will be available.

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 parties14@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 hotel14@baycon.org and our elite team of troubleshooters will help answer all of your queries, ponderings, or problems.
