If you are using a GPS or some kind of mapping device to find your way to the St Regis, please use the following address to enter into your mapping/GPS device:

St Regis Deer Valley Resort
2300 Deer Valley Drive East
Park City, Utah 84060

The Summit Conference Meetings are held in the Grand Ballroom of the St Regis which is along the left (southern) edge of Deer Valley Ski Resort. The hotel is actually up on the hill to the left so you have to valet park your car and ride the funicular up (It’s the trolley-looking car that runs from the resort to the lower check-in area.)

Lower Check-In Area for St Regis Deer Valley Resort (Valet parking is required)

Aerial View of the Funicular (the views are awesome)

The check-in desk personnel will direct you to the funicular and give you directions to the meeting space. Once you have ridden the funicular up from the lower check-in area you will find the upper check-in desk that can provide further assistance if you happen to lose your bearings from the breathtaking views as you ride up the funicular. After crossing through the upper lobby, you descend a series of steps. At the base of the steps you will turn to the right to find the Grand Ballroom where the Conference Meetings will be held.

If you have any additional questions, please reply to this post and I will update and respond.

Thanks – Kevin
