Courtyard by Marriott Akron Downtown

Modern Comfort Steps from Akron’s Music Scene

Courtyard by Marriott Akron Downtown offers a clean, modern stay right in the heart of downtown Akron. Just a mile from the University of Akron and the Akron Civic Center, it's a convenient and stylish base for your concert weekend. With a sleek design, welcoming vibe, and thoughtful amenities like free WiFi and in-room microwaves and fridges, it’s easy to settle in before or after the show.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and this hotel nails it. You're just a short walk or quick ride from the Akron Civic Center and other local venues, making it easy to catch your show without the parking stress. After the concert, retreat to a quiet room thanks to solid soundproofing and a relaxed downtown atmosphere. Flexible check-in from 3:00 PM and a generous 12:00 PM checkout mean you can sleep in and recharge.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends – Spacious rooms and common areas make it easy to hang out pre- or post-concert.
• Solo travelers – Safe, walkable location and comfortable rooms for a stress-free stay.
• Couples – Make a weekend of it with nearby attractions and cozy rooms.
• Fans needing downtime – Quiet environment for a good night’s sleep after a loud night.
• Budget-conscious – Reasonable rates without sacrificing quality or location.

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Bistro serves up drinks and bites, perfect for a quick snack before heading out or a nightcap after the show. There's also a 24/7 convenience store in case late-night cravings hit. While room service isn’t 24/7, there are plenty of walkable spots in downtown Akron, and the in-room microwave and fridge let you stash and reheat your faves. Breakfast is available the next morning if you’re slow-moving after the encore.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more chill than wild, you're just minutes from Akron's downtown nightlife. Bars, lounges, and breweries are easily walkable or a short ride away—ideal for grabbing a drink before or after the concert. The hotel bar in The Bistro offers a quiet option for winding down with a local craft beer.
