Visitor & Driver Tips
During major city celebrations—such as the annual Pueblo Chile & Frijoles Festival, holiday boat parades, or regional conventions—nearby parking fills rapidly; arriving early ensures the most convenient space close to the lobby. Guests staying at the hotel should confirm parking validation at the front desk upon check-in. If driving a larger commercial van or towing a trailer, verify space availability with hotel management prior to arrival to ensure appropriate accommodations.
