The Hyatt Regency O'Hare in Rosemont, IL, not to be confused by shuttlegoers with the Hyatt Rosemont, is a large conference hotel near the O'Hare airport in the Chicago metropolitan area. It has hosted 3 NAQT HSNCTs, the first 3 NAQT MSNCTs, and every NAQT ICT since 2010. It was thus the site of many famous in-game incidents in quizbowl history. It is also known for being an easy four-star hotel to get for a low price on Priceline during the off-season, and thus a frequent lodging place for visitors to other tournaments in the Chicago area, as well as for hosting a cavalcade of amusing non-quizbowl conferences at the same time as NAQT's championship tournaments, including but not limited to two fetish conventions, an e-cigarette expo, and multiple proms and ethnic weddings.
