My husband and I began our trek on Route 66 at this historic hotel. The official beginning is very close to the hotel and marked with a Historic Route 66 street sign. We also walked to the beautiful Buckingham fountain. We only stayed one night felt very upscale but not stuffy. We had a reservation and arrived around 2:30 PM, had a short wait at the registration desk and got right to our room. That left plenty of time to explore the area. The elevators were a bit slow and usually very full at peak times. Plan ahead for the wait if you need to be somewhere in a timely manner. If you drive in to the city like we did, be aware that parking at the official hotel garage is $42 per day. However, I booked a room with a parking package at a very reasonable $179 for a very nice downtown hotel. We would definately return.
