Adam's Mark Hotel -- Parking and Getting There

From I-40 Business in downtown Winston-Salem, take the Cherry Street exit. If you are traveling from points east, e.g. Raleigh/Durham, Greensboro, Kernersville, the Main Street exit precedes the Cherry Street exit. If you are traveling from points west, the Broad Street exit precedes the Cherry Street exit. There are two convenient parking areas adjacent to the hotel. (Note: East and West Towers of the Adam's Mark are connected by a convenient covered walkway.)

1. The city-owned covered deck adjacent to the Adam's Mark West Tower (available to all
looking for parking, including Adam's Mark guests)
Traveling north on Cherry Street, about half a block after you cross Fourth Street, turn left into the parking deck from Cherry Street. If you choose to dirve out of this deck before ending your Conference stay, be sure to ask the attendant for a 24-hour validation pass. (This locks in
the $6/day maximum.)

2. The hotel-owned parking adjacent to the Adam's Mark East Tower (available to Adam's
Mark guests)
From Cherry Street (which is one-way going north) turn right onto Fourth Street and immediately get into the far left lane of Fourth. Immediately turn left onto Trade Street, then left into Adam's Mark parking.
