Hotel Reservations and Directions

Travel and Transportation Information

From the Airport

The Courtyard Cleveland University Circle Hotel is 16.5 miles from Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. It is possible to take the Red Line train directly from the airport to the Little Italy-University Circle stop, which is 0.3 miles away from the hotel. For more information, you can consult the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority or your preferred navigation app. Taxis and rideshare companies also operate in Cleveland.

The Courtyard Cleveland University Circle Hotel’s Local Shuttle

The complimentary hotel shuttle operates within a 2-mile radius of the property. The shuttle runs Monday through Friday from 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM, and on Saturdays from 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM. It departs approximately every 30 minutes and can be scheduled through the front desk.

Getting to the Conference Sessions

To get from the hotel to the conference presentations at the Tinkham Veale University Center, attendees can walk 0.2 miles (estimated 5 minutes) to the event or can request the hotel's local shuttle. SaraJean Petite at Case Western has created a video showing a shortcut path from the hotel to the conference locations.

The opening reception will be held in the Case Western Reserve University Ben C. Green Law Library, practically across the street (0.1 miles) from the Tinkham Veale University Center. To return to the hotel from the reception, attendees can walk 0.3 miles (estimated 7 minutes). Since the end of the reception will be later than 7pm, if you will require assistance returning to the hotel, please note this in the accommodations section when you register for the conference.

Parking at the Hotel

The hotel offers valet parking only, at a cost of $26.00 per day. Parking rates are subject to change.

Parking at CWRU (not available overnight)

For attendees who will be driving to the conference and who will not choose to park at the hotel, the CWRU law library can facilitate the acquisition of CWRU parking passes for you at a cost of $10 per person per day. These do not allow for overnight parking so they cannot be a substitute for the hotel parking for hotel guests. If you need this parking, please select it as an add-on ticket when you register for the conference.
