Transportation Information 

Upon request, the Homewood Suites offers transportation to guests interested in visiting the University of Arizona. One day in advance, you must request transportation at the front desk of the establishment and they will notify you when the service is available and if they are able to fulfill the request. 

The Marriott at University Park does not offer direct transportation, as it is within walking distance to the main campus. However, the University of Arizona provides a bus service, known as the Cat Tran, which offers transportation services free of charge. The Cat Tran has several routes and makes stops every 10-15 minutes at each stop. The stops are scattered throughout campus as well as in the surrounding area. There are two stops located directly outside of the BIO5 Institute, on Cherry Avenue, that will take you to the Marriott.
