The Spotlight on Econo Lodge

Affordable Comfort Near Tupelo's Music Scene

Modern yet simple, the Econo Lodge in Tupelo, MS offers a no-fuss stay just minutes from downtown and key local attractions. Located along Mississippi Drive, it’s a convenient pick for concert-goers wanting to stay close to the action without stretching their budget. Bonus: it’s within walking distance of shopping and just a short drive to major music landmarks and venues.

Rooms come well-equipped with flat-screen TVs, microwaves, coffee makers, pillow-top mattresses, and even whirlpool tubs in select rooms. With free Wi-Fi, a seasonal outdoor pool, and pet-friendly rooms, it’s a solid choice for travelers who want comfort without the frills.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel’s location makes it a quick and easy ride to live music venues and downtown hotspots. While it’s not right in the middle of the nightlife buzz, that means peace and quiet after a loud show. Free parking and good highway access make late-night returns simple. Check-in starts at 3:00 PM, and check-out isn’t until 11:00 AM — ideal for sleeping in after a big night out.

  • Solo travelers chasing a legendary live performance
  • Couples planning a relaxed, music-filled weekend
  • Fans who want a quiet place to crash after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who’d rather spend more on tickets than lodging

Food and Drink Options

While the Econo Lodge doesn’t offer on-site dining, there are plenty of eateries nearby — including diners and fast-casual spots that stay open late. Coffee is available free in the lobby, and many rooms have microwaves for late-night reheats. You’ll also find breakfast options within walking distance, perfect for a post-show fuel-up.

Nightlife Options

There’s no bar on-site, but you’re just a short drive from downtown Tupelo’s bars and lounges, including several with live music. Whether you’re in the mood for a quiet cocktail or a second round of tunes, the local scene won’t disappoint.

What People Say

One of the worst hotel...

Liked: The location.
Disliked: I had a lot of allergy issues with this room. I left the next morning feeling like I couldn’t breathe well and my nose stopped up. The room had a lot of water damage which made me think there was mold. There was clearly dust on some surfaces. Even though I booked a non-smoking room clearly someone had smoked in there. The room had a strong unpleasant smell. The floors were sticky. The sheets on the bed were really thin. The pool wasn’t available. The breakfast was completely carbs and sugar. No protein at all.

Trashy.

Liked: There wasn't much to like about this place. It was kinda sketchy.
Disliked: There were cigarette burns on the beds. Burns on the shower. All the locks were broken and kicked in. Even the bathrooms. Everything was dirty. There weren't any blankets. The free breakfast was 2 boxes of cereal and no milk. My kids were afraid to stay here. My wife and I had to split up so we could stay in there room.
