One thing I have not seen mentioned is parking arrangements while checking in.
Can one park temporarily at the lobby to check in and drop off bags, and then go park in the Miracle Mile parking structure?
Or should one just go directly to MM parking, and huff stuff over to Elara?

Thanks for any input - tried asking Elara front desk this, but they just didn't seem to get it :(

I want to say we've historically parked directly in the garage. You can grab a parking ticket when entering the garage, then when you check in at the front desk they will give you a pass that allows you to exit the garage without paying.

Elara parking no longer free for owners? Valet parking price doubled.
Just looking on the HGVC website (not Hilton hotel site).
Says parking $18, and $30 for valet

You're right! Wow, free parking has been going extinct on the strip for a while now, I suppose the Planet Hollywood garage has succumbed to the same fate. $18 for self-park is steep, at that rate it's almost worth it to just valet it!

HGVC reservations still get free parking. From the resort details of my next Elara reservation it states that self parking is free:

Not sure what the $18 being referred to is - but it isn’t for HGVC owner stays.

On the HGV app Elara HGV Club (HGVC) says "self parking for a nightly fee."

On the HGV app Elara Hilton Club (HC) says "complimentary self parking."

Only way to know for sure if HGV Elara still has complimentary self parking is to call the Elara directly and ask them. I know for sure HGV Elara used to say complimentary self parking. Now it doesn't.

We were at Elara 2 weeks ago and self parking was free. They give you a card to exit and enter the property.

Would the free parking apply to more than one car? We're in a three bedroom in August and we will have two cars.
