The Hyatt Rosemont Hotel

As we are now sold out of sleeping rooms at the Hyatt Regency, we are booking additional rooming space at the Hyatt Rosemont instead. This luxurious hotel is located just five minutes from the Regency and features comparable sleeping accommodations and amenities. It is also reachable by means of the same shuttle that takes guests to the Hyatt Regency, and the same shuttle can be used to move between the two hotels at no charge.
