Hello! A couple of reviews talk about how you can leave your car with the valet and that the hotel's shuttle service will 'take you places', I'm hoping someone can clarify this! We have six of us that are thinking of going to dinner at Grace (6 miles away) and we do not want to have to drive. A taxi is always an option, as I'm figuring the shuttle is only for airport service. Thanks for any responses.
Thank you for your question.
Grace is actually a few blocks away from our hotel (just a 5 minute walk).
We offer complimentary shuttle service to and from the airport. We give priority to this service.
In the event that the shuttle is available, we will take guests to local (downtown and Old Port District only) locations.
Our vehicle can accommodate about 4 or 5 adults.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thank you everyone! I did end up calling the hotel, and they told me if it is available to use, they will shuttle you within a reasonable distance. I was thinking the restaurant we are going to was miles away (as shown by mapquest), but the staff at the hotel told me it is under a mile...So problem solved, as long as the weather cooperates, we can walk!
They have a no charge car service. I think it's in-town only, though they could surprise you. By all means call the hotel. There may be a fee if you go further. You are wise to get a lift to your dinner. Have you tried Petite Jacqueline?
Cheers

We left the car with the hotel and walked everywhere close by. If we used the car it was for a road trip to see the covered bridges. But, they were so helpful, I wouldn't be surprised if they said yes. I would call and see what they have to say.
Please tell them in advance to reserve a shuttle but airport shuttles have priority
I think that the shuttle is used for more than just airport runs, but I suggest that you ask the hotel, as they probably reserve the shuttle based on demand including transport from the airport.
No. The porter just meets you at the main door and parks your car in the hotel's parking facilities. When you leave the car is brought back to the main entrance for you. As someone from out of town (out of country actually) this was much appreciated.
