Ground Transportation: |
Various Transportation Options:
- MetroLink: From the Airport to the Civic Center is the most
economical. Look for the MetroLink signs at the airport.
See their site at
http://www.metrostlouis.org/MetroLink/stationlist.asp and a map
from
Lambert-St. Louis International Airport to the Civic Center stop.
- Taxans Xpress, (314) 427-3311:
The cost of this shuttle service from the airport to our hotel is $15 one way,
$25 round trip, and they have a counter across from the M2 carousel
at the airport. They run every 1/2 hour.
- Taxi Cab: This is the most expensive...expect to pay
approx. $30 one-way.
- No rental car authorized: Lodging is across the
street from the Metrolink Station (Civic Center Stop, just one stop
past Union Station),
so no rental car will be necessary. See map of area.
- Hotel to the Federal Building: The hotel is only 2-blocks from the Federal Building...a five
minute walk.
