The Spotlight on Clarion Suites Duluth I-85

Affordable Comfort with Easy Access to Atlanta's Music Scene

Modern and budget-friendly, Clarion Suites Duluth I-85 delivers a convenient base just northeast of Atlanta. Located in laid-back Duluth, this 3-star hotel blends clean, practical accommodations with a touch of Southern hospitality. With free WiFi, free private parking, and a shared lounge to relax in, it’s a solid choice for concert fans who want comfort without the downtown price tag.

Why Concert-goers love it

Clarion Suites Duluth I-85 puts you within reach of Atlanta’s major music venues—without dealing with the hustle of city traffic. Located just off I-85, you're around 30 minutes from central Atlanta and key venues. Late-night arrivals are no problem with 24-hour front desk service and smooth check-in starting from 3 PM. After the show, retreat to a quieter suburb for a restful night. Plus, with free parking, it’s ideal for those driving in for a gig.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking for budget-friendly rooms to crash after the show
- Solo travelers catching a must-see tour stop
- Couples turning a concert into a weekend getaway
- Fans needing a quiet place to recharge post-show
- Budget-conscious music lovers who prefer value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, guests will find plenty of walkable and short-drive dining spots nearby. Grab a bite before or after your concert at local grills, fast food chains, or late-night diners. Breakfast is available after your late night, perfect for a slow start to the morning.

Nightlife Options

Although the hotel itself doesn’t offer an on-site bar or live music, Duluth has a growing nightlife scene with bars and lounges nearby. And you’re just a drive away from Atlanta’s buzzing music clubs, breweries, and rooftop lounges if you're up for more post-show fun.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the clean, spacious suites and friendly staff. The free parking and WiFi are major highlights, especially for those traveling in groups. Travelers also mention that the location is quiet and safe, making it great for winding down after a high-energy night out.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviews note that the hotel is a bit dated in places, and while it’s not a luxury stay, it delivers on value and comfort. A few guests have mentioned that the breakfast options could be improved, but it's enough to get you going.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a concert in Atlanta and want a quiet, affordable, and convenient place to stay, Clarion Suites Duluth I-85 hits all the right notes.

Not to be repeated!

Liked: The location -- the sheets, and towels were clean.
Disliked: Where to start? The mattress was lumpy, and the head of the bed was 4" lower than the foot of the bed. The bathtub had rust in it, and the washing machine was not working. They were renovating, so the workmen started at 7:15. The breakfast was represented in pictures with all kinds of wonderful things - NOT! A few slices of sausage and some eggs. Some cereal and milk. NO fruit, no yogurt, no, no, nothing! The lobby looks great but as you walk to your room, the halls are dimly lit with beautiful scones. They are dim because they don't want you to see how dirty and disgusting the hall carpet is. The place is tired. Very, very tired. I now know why it was only $69. I suggest another hotel. Shame on Clarion for its false representation on its website.
