Transportation

Airport & train travel:

Reagan-National Airport is the closest to the our hotel (~15 minute drive). Washington Dulles & Baltimore/Washington International Airports are also options, but you should account for additional travel time and cost as they are respectively at least 45 and 55 minutes away from event venues. For those travelling by rail, the Amtrak Union Station is a 10 minute walk from the hotel.

Parking:

Self-parking is available onsite at YOTEL. It is on a first come basis. Autism Speaks guests will receive a discounted rate of $45 for overnight parking and $35 for daily parking.

There are additional nearby parking garages as well. Please note that DC parking can fill up during the week so plan ahead, note when garages open/close each day, and give yourself plenty of time if you choose not to park at the hotel. 

Union Station Parking Garage (101 H St NE, Washington, DC 20002) also allows for weekend and overnight parking. It is a 15 minute walk away from the hotel, and the daily parking rate is $25. 

Taxis, rideshare & DC Metro:

Uber and Lyft are readily available rideshare options in the DMV area. When in the district, specifically around Capitol Hill, flagging down a taxi is often the fastest way to catch a ride. The subway/metro is also an efficient way to get around DC. A map of the subway system is below.

We will provide a rideshare credit for you to use in traveling between DC locations during the event.
