Hotels & Travel Information
We have arranged a block of rooms at the Hyatt Regency, 350 N. High Street. This hotel is connected to the convention center, so is about as convenient as you can get. The special rate is $119 per night, up to four per room. Great news! While we still recommend booking as early as possible, the hotel has agreed to keep our special rate right up until the event. Call 1-800-233-1234 and ask for the "Heartland Havoc" hotel rooms.

As as note, this is the Hyatt Regency, not the Hyatt Capitol Square in case there is any confusion.

There are several other hotels located in the vicinity of the convention center and in the downtown area. Columbus International Airport (CMH) is a mere 15 minutes away, and is accessible by bus, cab ride, or in some cases, hotel shuttle.

Columbus Information
The Greater Columbus Convention Center is located just south of the Short North neighborhood, in downtown Columbus. The bout venue is located within walking distance of many hotels, bars, restaurants, shops and galleries. Our guide to Columbus will be posted soon, with after party locations, and lists of businesses with special Heartland Havoc discounts. View our Guide to Columbus (pdf) or our area map to see all the places we recommend visiting while you're here.
