Other suggestions for those arriving at a New York area airport are to rent a car and drive or to take a taxi or public transportation to New York City's Penn Station and then the NJTransit train to Princeton Junction and then a taxi from the Princeton Junction station to your local area hotel. (Sorry, we are only able to provide our own free shuttle service from the Princeton Junction station to the workshop for those commuting from the city daily.)

Getting Here From New York City:

By Car:

Drive south on the New Jersey Turnpike to Exit 8-A. Then follow your Google, Mapquest, or personal GPS directions, or refer to this local map on which "A" marks the spot.

By Public Transportation:

Take NJTransit Northeast Corridor Train # 3821 to Princeton Junction. This train departs New York City's Penn Station at 7:14 AM and arrives at Princeton Junction at 8:24. You can also board this train at Secaucus Junction, Newark Penn Station, and Newark (Liberty) International Airport.

If you are traveling back and forth daily, a weekly ticket is available for $101. Buy your ticket at the station before boarding the train.

Let us know you will be taking the train and we will meet you at Princeton Junction Station and drive you to the workshop — free.

Lodging:

Workshop participants who will not be commuting to the workshop daily are responsible for arranging their own lodging. The closest hotel to the workshop (just a few minutes drive) site is the Crowne Plaza Monroe which is recommended.

Several hotels and motels in the area are listed below. Less expensive lodging (such as Motel 6) are a greater distance from the workshop but, if you have a car, the travel time is still quite minimal.

Before attempting to make a booking directly with a hotel, we suggest that you explore the availability of discounted rates that may be available through travel websites.
