Visitor & Driver Tips
While self-parking on site is typically complimentary for registered hotel guests and affiliated event visitors, always check in at the reception desk to confirm your vehicle registration if you plan an extended stay. During peak winter months, be mindful of snow accumulation zones and designated plow lanes following heavy New England snowfall. If navigating during morning or afternoon commuter peaks along Route 120, plan for an extra few minutes of travel time when making left-hand turns toward Hanover or the I-89 interchange.
