TRAVEL INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: The hotel is now know as the Hilton St. Louis at the Ballpark, but it is the same hotel we have used the past several years.

There are 3 ways to get from St. Louis Lambert Airport to the Hilton Hotel:

• The "MetroLink" is a train that departs from the airport every 30 minutes. The fare to downtown St. Louis is $3.25 per person. You will need to depart at the Busch Stadium Station. Then walk 1/4 way around the stadium to the north and you will see the Hilton Hotel just across Walnut Street . Return fare to the airport is $1.75. Metro Link ticket machines take coins and cash up to a $10 bill. For additional Metro Link Info, dial (314) 231-2345.

• The Trans Express Shuttle departs from the airport baggage claim area every 30 minutes and costs $16 per person for one-way, or $26 for a round-trip. The shuttle generally stops at more than one location to let other passengers off. Their number is (314) 427-3311.

• Cabs are available in front of the airport baggage claim area. Generally, the fare is between $35 and $45 each way. (NOTE: Due to rising gas prices,
  surcharges may be in effect, so beware!)

• If you drive yourself, valet parking is available for $21 per day. Pull up front on Broadway and leave your car; you can then pick it up anytime at the parking garage which is accessible from the West Tower in the hotel. If you wish to self-park, it will cost you $15 per day. To self-park, pull up outside the hotel entrance on Broadway, and tell the attendant you intend to self-park. Then go to the front desk, check in, and th e desk clerk will give you a ticket with a barcode on it, which you can use to gain entrance to reserved parking within the Stadium East Self-Parking Garage. You may unload your luggage, and leave your car while you check in. The self-park garage is only 1/2 block down Broadway, and is a short walk back to the hotel. You may come and go as you please without incurring additional charges.

If you have any questions, call Jill at (417) 869-9602. After November 13th , call the Hilton at (314) 421-1776 and ask to be transferred to Jill Gunzenhauser.
