Transportation:
If you are flying into Atlanta, you can easily catch a cab from the airport. If you don’t mind walking a little, you can also take MARTA directly from the airport. Hop on either the Red or Gold Line going North on MARTA to North Avenue. A one-way ticket is $2.50. Once you exit the station, make a left on Ponce de Leon and then walk up Spring Street to 5th Street. The hotel will be on the corner between Spring and 5th St, near the Barnes and Noble.
During the event, you can hop on a GA Tech Stinger shuttle that stops in front of the hotel. It is free and will take you to local destinations. If you’d like to go further, we recommend Checker Cab or Uber (see special first-time Uber rider Summit promo information below).
