Food and Drink Options

Concert nights don’t always follow standard meal times, and this hotel gets that. Guests enjoy a free hot breakfast daily—perfect after a late night—and evening snacks and drinks served in the lobby. Several walkable dining options and nearby eateries offer more flexibility, and with a microwave and fridge in every room, late-night leftovers are always an option.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t have an on-site bar or live music, it’s just a short drive from local bars and lounges around University Place and beyond. After the concert, you’re never far from a nightcap or a mellow wind-down with friends.
