Why Concert-goers love it

Post-show, you'll appreciate the quiet atmosphere—perfect for winding down after a loud night.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends road-tripping to Hartford for a big concert
• Solo travelers catching a bucket-list band
• Couples looking for a low-key weekend getaway with a show
• Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery outside the city buzz
• Budget-conscious music lovers who’d rather spend on tickets than a hotel

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel doesn't offer on-site dining, each room includes a mini-fridge, which is handy for keeping snacks and drinks on hand after the show. You're also within a short drive of plenty of restaurants, fast food spots, and diners in Manchester. Breakfast options are easy to find nearby—even later in the morning if you’re recovering from a late night.

Nightlife Options

Nightlife is more about your concert here, but if you're looking to keep the evening going, downtown Hartford is just a quick drive away with bars, lounges, and live music venues. Prefer something more laid-back? Grab some drinks to go and relax in your room with some post-show playlists.
