New/Old Hotel & Directions

Hilton Pix If you attended MarsCon 2002 you'll be familiar with the Hilton Minneapolis / St. Paul Airport Hotel. The Airport Hilton is three miles from the Minneapolis / St. Paul Airport, and only one minute away from the mall of America. They offer complimentary shuttles to both locations.

The Airport Hilton website includes a map and interactive driving directions.

Driving EAST from Bloomington, etc: Take I-494 to the 34th Ave exit. Turn south -- away from the airport -- and drive to 80th Street, the first light. Turn east -- left -- and drive all the way past the "Park 'N Fly" ramp. The Hilton driveway will be on your left and the MN Valley National Wildlife Refuge driveway will be on your right.

Driving WEST from St. Paul, Wisconsin, etc: Take either Highway 5 (St. Paul) or I494 (Wisconsin) to the 34th Ave exit. In either case turn south -- away from the airport -- and drive to 80th Street, the first light. Turn east -- left -- and drive all the way past the "Park 'N Fly" ramp. The Hilton driveway will be on your left and the MN Valley National Wildlife Refuge driveway will be on your right.

Folks using mass transit are probably best off getting to the airport or to the Mall of America and catching a shuttle to the hotel.
