The Hotel Baker does NOT have on-site parking. Guests are welcome to pull into the area in front of the hotel to drop off guests and luggage. Guests may use the 24-hour parking located on floors 2-5 in the First Street parking garage across the street from the hotel. Part of 1st Street is blocked (can't get to 1st St. from 64) and is pedestrian only between Route 64 and Illinois Street. Cars must enter the garage on 2nd Street or Illinois Street (please see map). There is also 24-hour street parking on Route 64 in front of the hotel. Please use caution when crossing Route 64 to go into the hotel! This is a very busy town, and we have lots of traffic! There is a crosswalk with a light and using that is highly recommended.

...

Uber/Lyft is a good option if you are not staying at the Hotel Baker and do not want to drive/park!

There is a lot of free parking available in downtown Saint Charles. Please see the attached link to access the City of Saint Charles parking website for further information.

The best and easiest way to drop off guests and luggage at The Hotel Baker:

1) You must be heading west on 64 towards the hotel in order to pull into the drop off area in front of the hotel (see picture of the drop off area).

2) When pulling away from the hotel to go the parking garage you will need to immediately merge into the 2nd lane from right.

3) Turn left at light onto 2nd Street and stay in the inside lane (2nd from right). You will see an entrance into the parking garage on the left, however this entrance is very difficult to use because of traffic! Continue to the next light and turn left onto Illinois St.

4) Go to the next light and turn left onto 1st St.

5) You will dead end into the easiest entrance to the parking garage on the left.

6) Floors 2-5 are 24-hour parking.
