The UC Irvine campus is about 4 miles from Orange County John Wayne Airport (SNA). UC Irvine has negotiated discounted rates with many hotels near the airport and UCI (in Costa Mesa, Irvine and Newport Beach). Several hotels provide a shuttle to/from the airport, and to/from UCI. Be sure to verify with the hotel whether shuttle service is offered and whether there is a fee for this service. There is a drop-off zone near W Peltason Dr. and Pereira Drive, Irvine, CA, near the UCI Conference Center.

Unfortunately, there's no on-campus housing available to us this year. We'd like to suggest checking out the Atrium Hotel, adjacent to John Wayne Airport and just a few miles from the campus. They offer a free shuttle service to UCI, free breakfast, free WiFi, and free parking.

List of Places to stay

The following are accomodations located nearby the campus; you can find a full list of recommendations from a resource page on UCI website (details subject to change at any time). Anyone visiting the UCI campus for any reason may take advantage of these offers. When making the reservation be sure to let the hotel know that you are visiting UCI and that you chose the hotel from the UCI hotel listing.
