One of the best parts of attending the American Open is staying where all the action happens—and this year, it’s more affordable than ever.
We’re excited to offer special tournament rates starting at just $169 per night (plus taxes and fees) at the Hyatt Regency Orange County, the official host hotel for the American Open. Whether you prefer a spacious King Deluxe or Two Queen Deluxe room, you’ll experience the convenient accommodations just steps away from the tournament halls. The special group rate is available for both room types, making it a great option whether you’re traveling solo, with family, or sharing a room with friends.
Why Stay at the Tournament Hotel?
There’s nothing like waking up, grabbing breakfast, and taking only a short walk to the tournament hall or maybe be able to take a rest between rounds of the day.
Benefits include:
- Special group rate of $169/night (plus taxes and fees)
- King Deluxe or Two Queen Deluxe room options (Suite upgrades are also available)
- Convenient access to the tournament venue and side events
- Opportunities to analyze games, meet fellow players, and enjoy the tournament atmosphere long after each round ends
- Easy access to nearby restaurants, shopping, and local attractions like Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, and Angel Stadium if you’re extending your stay or for friends and family while you’re playing chess
Reserve Early
Like our Early Bird registration, the hotel room block is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Once the discounted rooms are gone—or after October 31, 2026—rates will increase based on availability.
If you’re planning to compete, now is the perfect time to lock in both your tournament registration (Early Registration for the Main Event ends July 31) and your hotel reservation.
