By Air

Six airports, one hotel

John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana is the closest and the easiest — a small, quick airport about twenty minutes from the hotel. Los Angeles International is the one with the most destinations. Ontario is the quiet alternative and often the cheapest.

SNA
John Wayne, Orange County
12 miles
Closest to the hotel. About 20 minutes without traffic. Roughly 50 nonstop destinations.
LGB
Long Beach
14 miles
Small and fast to clear. A short list of West Coast routes.
LAX
Los Angeles International
34 miles
The most nonstop destinations by a wide margin. Allow well over an hour in afternoon traffic.
ONT
Ontario
34 miles
Inland and uncongested. Often the cheaper fare, and an easier drive than LAX.
BUR
Hollywood Burbank
41 miles
Useful for West Coast connections. Traffic-dependent.
SAN
San Diego International
95 miles
Worth checking if the fare is much better — about 90 minutes up Interstate 5.

Distances are driving miles to the Hilton Anaheim. Southern California traffic varies widely by hour; the times above assume a clear road, so build in a margin for a weekday afternoon.

By Train

Straight into Anaheim

Anaheim has its own Amtrak station. Amtrak Anaheim Station (ANA) sits inside the ARTIC terminal at 2626 E Katella Avenue — 3.1 miles from the hotel, about seven minutes by car.

Amtrak Pacific Surfliner
13 trains a day each way between Los Angeles and San Diego stop at Anaheim. Trains running only north of Los Angeles do not reach it.
From further afield
Four Amtrak long-distance routes end at Los Angeles Union Station — the Coast Starlight, Southwest Chief, Sunset Limited and Texas Eagle. Union Station to Anaheim is another 39 minutes on the Surfliner.
Metrolink Orange County Line
Uses the same station, about 45 minutes from Union Station. Weekend service is much thinner than weekday — the Surfliner is the safer choice on a Saturday.
Station to the hotel
3.1 miles, so not a walk. OCTA Route 50 serves the Convention Center, and rideshare and taxis wait at the front. The station takes no checked baggage and its ticket window is currently closed — Fullerton is the nearest staffed one.

Service levels are current as of September 2026. Confirm schedules at amtrak.com when you book.

By Car

If you are driving

The hotel sits beside the Anaheim Convention Center, just off Interstate 5, in the middle of the Resort District.

From Los Angeles
About 30 miles south on I‑5.
From Riverside
About 35 miles west — the host parish's own drive.
From San Diego
About 95 miles north on I‑5.
Parking
On-site at the hotel. Rates are published by the hotel and are confirmed closer to the date.
