The Spotlight on Econo Lodge Scranton

Budget-Friendly Convenience Close to the Action

Modern, no-frills and focused on comfort, Econo Lodge Scranton is a practical choice for concert-goers looking to stay near Montage Mountain. Just a short drive from Scranton’s top music venues, this hotel keeps things simple while offering everything you need for a smooth stay—like free Wi-Fi, 24-hour vending machines, and easy parking.

Why Concert-goers love it

Thanks to its location near Montage Mountain, getting to and from concerts is quick and easy—especially with the hotel’s handy taxi services available. The free Wi-Fi is great for sharing concert memories, and express check-in/check-out means less waiting and more time enjoying the music scene. After a loud, energetic night, you’ll appreciate the quiet, laid-back atmosphere for winding down.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for affordable shared rooms
  • Solo travelers catching a bucket-list show
  • Couples making a weekend of it
  • Fans who want a calm space to recharge post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

Start your morning with a complimentary on-site breakfast—a welcome perk after a late night out. While there’s no full-service restaurant, 24-hour vending machines offer light snacks and drinks whenever hunger strikes. Plus, several casual eateries are just a short drive or cab ride away.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music or a bar, you’re never far from the action. Popular bars and lounges in downtown Scranton are just a quick drive away, making it easy to keep the night going—or find a quiet spot to decompress.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the low rates, convenient location near concerts and shopping, and friendly staff. Reviewers mention the rooms are clean and simple, with comfortable beds and helpful front desk service. It’s a solid choice for those who value function over frills.

Areas for Improvement

This isn’t a luxury experience—some rooms could use updates, and the décor is dated. There’s no on-site restaurant or bar, and you’ll need to head out for a full meal. But for the price, most guests agree it’s a great deal.

The Bottom Line

If you’re heading to a show at Montage Mountain and want a reliable, budget-friendly place to crash, Econo Lodge Scranton delivers exactly what you need—no more, no less.

Liked: Getting out of the filthy joint.
Disliked: 3am and I wake up to a tickle on my arm. Turn on the lights and cockroaches scuttle back into the crack between mattress and wall. The hotel is the worst I have ever stayed in, and that includes Third World slums when I was young. Filthy and stinkin

Liked: Leaving
Disliked: There was a smell of rot in the building - the wallpaper was stapled to the walls in places - there was mold and mildew in the bathroom ceiling and tub - the laminate floors were soft and squishy. This property needs to be condemned and rebuilt.

Do not stay here!

Liked: (I'm not sure why this is posting with a smily face - I was NOT smiling!) We arrived, and the exterior was completely run down - the roof looked like it was going to fall off in areas, etc. But I went ahead and checked in. I got in my room, and it was filthy! Dirty cracked tiles, little bits of trash on the floor, just gross. The only thing good about this place was the person at check-in was very kind and refunded my money. Fortunately, the Hampton Inn on the other side of the freeway is pet friendly, and we were able to secure a nice clean room there. Do not stay at this econolodge!
Disliked: Everything was dirty, run-down, and uninhabitable.

Liked: Absolutely nothing! The location is convenient to the highway is about the only thing that was good. It is down in a dark hole especially if youre coming in late at night.
Disliked: The hotel is extremely dirty. The room I stayed in had mold on the ceiling tiles in the bathroom. The room wasnt clean at all. There was a finger nail on the bathroom counter, the bed doesnt look like it had been changed. The end table was sticky.
