Rates include the taxes and fees we can read.

The property may take a card at check-in for incidentals.

This property does not accommodate bachelor(ette) or similar parties. Please inform of your expected arrival time in advance.

Guests under the age of 18 can only check in with a parent or official guardian. A deposit may be required at the property.

What we’d check for you here

That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.

Questions about The Foveran

What time is check-in and check-out at The Foveran?

Check-in is from 4:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does The Foveran allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at The Foveran?

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.

Does The Foveran have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does The Foveran have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book The Foveran?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.

Where is The Foveran?
