Cherry Valley Hotel

The lodging this guide bases on: 200 rooms in Newark, Licking County — the same county as The Virtues — 15.21 road miles from the course by Long Drive, SR 146 Nashport Road, the SR 16 Newark Expressway, Thornwood Crossing and Cherry Valley Road. It is one of the five hotels the course's own Stay & Play form names, and the only one of them with a readable operator site. The operator lists guest rooms averaging 365 square feet with king beds and a patio or balcony in every room, executive suites at 600 square feet, an on-site restaurant and bar, complimentary parking, a 24/7 front desk and snack shop, free Wi-Fi, dog-friendly rooms at a $75 cleaning fee, a heated indoor pool and exercise facility open 9 AM to 9 PM, and over 50,000 square feet of event space. At its centre is "our flourishing botanical garden and the country's only hotel arboretum," which the operator says displays over 2,000 varieties of flora and fauna. Check-in 4 pm, check-out 11 am; telephone 740-788-1200. No street address is published here: the operator writes "Rd SE" while the Census street file and OSRM both give "NE," and the operator's own string geocodes into a different village. No nightly rate is published either — the hotel advertises conditional percentage offers rather than a dated rate.
