The hotel is a six-minute walk from the primary conference venue, the Memorial Union at Arizona State University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hilton.com\/en\/book\/reservation\/rooms\/?ctyhocn=PHXGPGU&amp;arrivalDate=2026-10-18&amp;departureDate=2026-10-23&amp;groupCode=903&amp;room1NumAdults=1\">https:\/\/www.hilton.com\/en\/book\/reservation\/rooms\/?ctyhocn=PHXGPGU&amp;arrivalDate=2026-10-18&amp;departureDate=2026-10-23&amp;groupCode=903&amp;room1NumAdults=1<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Getting there from Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Uber and Lyft are the easiest form of transportation from Phoenix Sky Harbor, the&nbsp;Valley Metro Rail is a feasible and comfortable way to make the trip. Using the Valley Metro Rail, you will only pay $3 for a one-way trip to the Graduate By Hilton Tempe hotel. You can get a Valley Metro Copper Card in person at the Light Rail Station, or even better, download the app for your phone, and add a virtual card to your phone&#8217;s wallet. If you elect to purchase the physical card in person, you will also need to load money onto the card. A virtual card using the app on your phone can be reloaded with&nbsp; Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a debit\/credit card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After arriving to the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport, you will take the free Sky Train from Terminal 3 to the 44th Street Valley Metro Light Rail Station. At the Light Rail station, you can purchase a Valley Metro Copper Card if needed, and load funds to cover your transportation. From there, you will take the light rail five stops southeast from 44th St\/Washington to Mill Ave\/3rd Street. Then you will get on the Tempe Street Car to 3rd Street\/Ash. You will have a three-minute walk to the hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For this and other routes, please download the Valley Metro app and set the translation to your language of choice:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.valleymetro.org\/how-to-ride\/online-tools\/app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.valleymetro.org\/how-to-ride\/online-tools\/app<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hotel: The Graduate By Hilton Tempe A limited number of rooms are being held at the Graduate By Hilton Tempe [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"_joinchat":[],"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2167","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ritaconference.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2167","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ritaconference.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ritaconference.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ritaconference.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ritaconference.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2167"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/ritaconference.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2167\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2181,"href":"https:\/\/ritaconference.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2167\/revisions\/2181"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ritaconference.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2167"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
