Guest Transportation Help!!

Guest Transportation Help!!

So a lot of my guests will be staying in a hotel by my RH. The hotel provides a shuttle for up to 15 guests and the rest are on their own... The hotel told me they can credit what they pay for the shuttle for me to book a bus for the guests to take them back and forth to the RH, but the credit is next-to-nothing, so I would have to pay about $800 for the shuttle. There's plenty of parking at the RH, and it's about a 10-15 minute drive.

Both our families are drinkers and I want to make sure everyone gets back safely, but they're all adults and should know their limits... (and although their safety is more important than anything the $800 is not helping me with my budget).

What do you think we should do- is this our responsibility to take care of?? Would you consider footing the bill for a bus for your guests?? help!!!!

Re: Guest Transportation Help!!

How many above the 15 people are you thinking? Maybe instead of trading in what the hotel gives you for a bus you could just rent an additional van at a lower cost?

I have a good number of guest staying in the hotel and I will definately try to figure out a way to get my guests to the hotel. even if it boils down to me getting them a way to the RH and then having people double up and split cabs to the hotel. and that's if i ABSOLUTELY cannot afford it. I'd much rather them all be safe. yes they are adults and should know their limits.. but thats also a bit scary. I also kinda feel like they wont have as good a time knowing they will have to drive for 15 minutes in an area they dont know. i know i would feel that way.
