From Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
By rideshare or taxi: request a pickup at the designated rideshare or taxi zones at LAX. Travel time to 6131 Telegraph Rd is typically around 20–30 minutes without heavy traffic. One industry listing cites taxi fares from LAX to the hotel in the range of roughly $46–$65, with private sedan services higher.
By car rental: follow I-105 East to I-710 North or local surface streets depending on traffic. The hotel provides on-site parking; the resort fee includes complimentary valet parking for one vehicle per reservation, with self/uncovered parking options also available.
- No scheduled airport shuttle from LAX to the hotel (the hotel’s complimentary local shuttle does not list airport service).
- Allow 30–60 minutes during peak commute hours.
- If you need a lower-cost option, check public transit (longer journey; see the Public transit section).
| Option | Typical time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Rideshare / Taxi | 20–30 min | Convenient door-to-door; fares vary |
| Car rental | 20–30 min | Parking options on site; valet included in resort fee for one vehicle |

From Long Beach Airport (LGB)
LGB is a convenient alternative to LAX for The Commerce Casino & Hotel; the hotel is roughly a 20–30 minute taxi or rideshare ride away depending on traffic and route.
Follow I-710 North or surface streets from Long Beach. As with LAX, the hotel’s resort fee includes complimentary valet parking for one vehicle per reservation and self-parking options are listed by multiple sources.
- Taxi/rideshare is the simplest option for most travelers from LGB.
- If renting a car, the drive is straightforward via I-710 or local surface streets.

| Service | Typical time | Notes |
|---|---|---|

| Car rental | 20–30 min | On-site parking available |
| Public transit | Varies | Requires multiple transfers |
From Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR)
BUR is the farthest of the three airports listed here; drive times are commonly around 40–50 minutes but can be longer depending on traffic through the San Fernando Valley and central LA.
For a taxi or rideshare, expect a longer fare and trip time compared with LAX or LGB. Renting a car can make sense if you plan to visit other parts of the region during your stay.
- Follow I-5 South or US-101 and surface streets — traffic-dependent.

| Car rental | 40–50 min | Good if you’ll drive around LA |
| Public transit | 2+ hours | Multiple transfers; slower |
Public transit and rail options
Public transit to the hotel is possible but significantly slower than driving. From LAX, one option is to use the FlyAway/Metro rail network and transfer to local buses that serve Telegraph Road; Rome2rio-style itineraries estimate a trip of about 2 hours 16 minutes from LAX using public transit.
The nearest heavy-rail station is the Commerce Metrolink station (6433 26th Street), but service is limited — only a handful of peak-direction trains stop there and there is no fixed bus route directly to the station without using on-demand shuttles or transfers.
- Metro Local bus Line 62 stops at Telegraph/Commerce Casino and runs roughly hourly.
- City of Commerce municipal buses and on-demand shuttles can connect you to Citadel Outlets and nearby stops.
- If you choose public transit, check schedules ahead of time — connections and frequency are limited, particularly evenings and weekends.
| From | Common transit route | Typical duration |
|---|---|---|
| LAX | FlyAway/Metro rail + bus/transfer | About 2+ hours |
| LGB / BUR | Local bus + transfers or Metrolink (limited service) | Varies; often 1.5–3 hours |
| Metrolink | Commerce station + local shuttle or bus | Depends on schedule; station served by few trains |

Practical tips for arrival and getting around
Allow 30–60 extra minutes to reach the hotel during LA commute times (roughly 7:00–9:30 AM and 3:30–7:00 PM). If you need an airport pickup, arrange a rideshare or taxi from the airport pickup zones — the hotel’s local shuttle does not state regular airport service.
If you plan to explore other parts of Los Angeles (Disneyland, Downtown LA, beaches), consider renting a car. The hotel lists a complimentary local shuttle within a 10-mile radius by request (7:00 AM–11:00 PM), which can help for short local trips but is not an airport transfer service in the available sources.
- Confirm arrival plans with the hotel if you expect to arrive after midnight (last check-in is midnight).
- If you need mobility assistance or have a lot of luggage, request valet on arrival — it’s included for one vehicle in the resort fee.
- For public transit, check Metro, Metrolink, and City of Commerce schedules before you travel — service frequencies vary and some options are limited or on-demand.
| Tip | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Avoid peak traffic times | Reduces drive time significantly |
| Use rideshare pickup zones at airports | Fastest door-to-door option without renting a car |
| Call the hotel for shuttle/arrival details | Hotel shuttle is local only and runs on a schedule |
