Why Concert-goers love it

The 24-hour front desk and flexible late check-in make it easy to arrive post-gig without stress. While the area is quiet, that’s exactly what many concert-goers want after a loud, high-energy night.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a clean, convenient crash pad between gigs
• Solo travelers flying in to see their favorite band
• Couples turning a concert into a weekend escape
• Fans seeking quiet recovery after a night of live music
• Budget-conscious travelers who still want comfort and amenities

Food and Drink Options

The hotel serves a continental breakfast—a lifesaver after a late night. While there’s no on-site restaurant, vending machines with snacks and drinks are available 24/7. There are also several restaurants within a short drive, making it easy to grab a bite before or after the show.

Nightlife Options

This isn’t a nightlife hotspot itself, but its proximity to downtown Scranton and Wilkes-Barre means bars, breweries, and lounges are just a short ride away. If you’re after something more low-key, the shared lounge area at the hotel is a great place to relax and recap the night.

What People Say

Guests consistently mention the friendly staff, clean rooms, and the convenience of being near the airport and major roads. The quiet environment is a big plus for those wanting to recharge after concerts. Wi-Fi is strong and reliable, and travelers love the easy parking and overall value.

Areas for Improvement

This hotel isn’t flashy—and the décor might feel a bit traditional compared to hip downtown spots. There’s no bar or restaurant on-site, and while breakfast is appreciated, it’s fairly basic. Still, when your main focus is the concert, these are minor trade-offs.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a quiet, well-equipped, and affordable stay close to top venues and the airport, the Best Western Plus Wilkes Barre-Scranton Airport Hotel hits all the right notes.
