Q.  How can I get to the Hilton Salt Lake City Center Hotel from Salt Lake City International Airport?
  A. 

There are several possibilities.

TRAX (Light Rail)

TRAX trains depart the airport every 15 minutes on weekdays and every 20 minutes on weekends. The Green Line (which is the one that goes to the airport) will take you to within two blocks of the hotel with no change in trains. You board TRAX at the far end of Terminal One and take it to Gallivan Plaza (at 200 South Main Street). It is about a 20 minute ride. Once you exit TRAX, walk west (right) on 200 South one block to West Temple, turn right and walk a half block to the Hilton. The one-way cost is $2.50. The senior fare (over 65) is just $1.25. (Down side - if you arrive at terminal 2, it is a long walk to the far end of terminal one. And, city blocks are bigger than those you may be used to . So, if walking is a problem, take a shuttle or taxi.)

Shuttle

The Hilton contracts with Haroon Transportation for shuttle service door-to-door from the airport to the hotel. Call Haroon at 855-316-6888 once you retrieve your bags at the airport and they will come and get you. The one way fare is $12 per passenger

Taxi

A taxi will cost $20 to $25 for any number of passengers and so is a good alternative to the shuttle for 2 or more people

Q.  I am driving and will need to park. What are my options?
  A. 

Parking at the Hilton is normally $14 per day. However, it is complementary to Conference registrants who are staying at the hotel.

Q.  What are my options for getting from the Hotel to the Family History Library?
  A. 

Most will walk the two long blocks north from the hotel to the library. The Hotel is on the east side of West Temple between 200 South and 300 South. The Library is on the west side of West Temple between South Temple and North Temple. However, an alternative is to leave the rear of the hotel and walk less than a block to the TRAX (light rail) station at Gallivan Plaza and take TRAX two stops north to Temple Square Station. It will let you off close to the Library and is free. There is no charge to use TRAX in the downtown area.

Q.  What's the most convenient way to get around in Salt Lake City and the Salt Lake Valley?
  A. 

The UTA TRAX light rail and Bus System are convenient, clean and have extensive routes across the city and the entire Salt Lake valley. The Green Line will take you from the Airport to Gallivan Plaza, where you would get off for the Conference Hotel. It will also take you from the hotel to the Family History Library. The Red Line will take you to the University of Utah and its J. Willard Marriott Library. If you want to go farther afield, the Frontrunner will take you to Ogden in the north or Provo in the south.
