DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Claremont
This is the hotel where we have booked a block of rooms for our guests! It's an incredibly convenient location, only 0.25 miles from our ceremony and reception venues. Rooms with two double beds or one king bed are available. Two important things: 1 - The discount code only applies to the nights of October 3rd and 4th. If you will be arriving earlier or staying later, you can still apply the discounted rates on those nights, but will need to pay full price on the other nights of your stay. 2 - The discount code EXPIRES on September 12, 2025. You MUST book your rooms before this date, or you will not get the discounted rate!
Discount Code - CDT905
Flight
Ontario International Airport (ONT)
Claremont is a very walkable college town, so if you'd rather not rent a car, flying into Ontario is definitely the best option. While the cost of your flights may be more expensive than flying into LAX, you can take a cab or ride share for $30-$50 (one-way) from Ontario to Claremont and skip the rental car.
Flight
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
As a big hub, LAX is the most likely to have direct flights to/from wherever you're traveling. It's about an hour drive (without traffic) from LAX to Claremont, but you should plan for a trip upwards of two hours if you're traveling during rush hour. Would definitely recommend renting a car if you fly into LAX, although it is possible to take transit (about a 2.5 hour trip one-way; see travel note).
