Parking

Although we would like to ask you to use public transportation as much as possible, Van der Valk Hotel Nijmegen-Lent has its own parking garage. At the end of the day, the gates will be temporarily opened to allow USH2025 visitors to exit. Hotel guests can provide their license plate number during check-in, which allows them to enter and exit the parking area free of charge throughout their stay. Please note: the square in front of the hotel is owned by the municipality, not Van der Valk. Incorrect parking in this area may result in a fine.
