PARADES/STREET CLOSURES

There are a number of garages within a few blocks of the hotel. We do not recommend parking on the street, regardless of posted signage, as damage, theft, or parking tickets can occur at any time without notice. The hotel is not responsible for fines, loss, or damage to cars on the street or in the loading zone directly in front of the hotel. Currently, valet parking rates are $67 per night for a sedan, $77 per night for oversized vehicles such as SUVs, trucks, vans, or wagons. Rates are subject to change. This rate is based on a 24-hour period with no in and out privileges.
Cars exceeding the 24-hour period by more than one hour will be charged for a full night. Under normal circumstances, the hotel recommends allowing roughly half an hour to retrieve the vehicle for departure. The hotel and garage are not responsible for personal belongings left in the car or glove compartment. We recommend removing all valuables from the car when you arrive and ask that you leave only the key to the ignition. All claims for loss or damage must be made to the garage attendant at the time the car is returned. After guest departure, insurance regulation states that the hotel and garage assume no liability for loss of or damage to the guests’ property or vehicle.
