The Spotlight on Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Gaylord

Comfortable, Modern Stay in the Heart of Gaylord

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Gaylord offers a clean, contemporary base for your music-filled getaway. This 3-star hotel is located in a peaceful part of Gaylord, just a short drive from local music venues and downtown attractions. With free WiFi and a 24-hour front desk, it's a stress-free pick whether you're catching a show or just exploring Northern Michigan.

Why Concert-goers love it

After a long night of live music, guests appreciate the quiet location that’s still within easy reach of key venues. The 24-hour front desk makes late check-ins smooth, and free WiFi keeps you connected for those post-show uploads. Plus, check-out at 12:00 PM means you can sleep in after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a clean, reliable place to crash after a show
  • Solo travelers attending that once-in-a-lifetime concert
  • Couples making a weekend of it in Northern Michigan
  • Fans needing a quiet spot to re-energize after a late night
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to sacrifice comfort

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel doesn’t have a full-service restaurant, guests love the complimentary breakfast buffet—perfect after a night out. There are also several restaurants within walking distance, offering everything from casual bites to local fare. Late-night cravings? Staff can point you to nearby spots still serving.

Nightlife Options

Though there’s no on-site bar or live music venue, the hotel is just a short drive from local bars, lounges, and pubs in downtown Gaylord. It's easy to grab a nightcap or continue the fun after the show.

What People Say

Reviewers regularly praise the spotless rooms, friendly staff, and quiet setting. Travelers say it’s a dependable and comfortable option for a weekend stay, and many mention the hotel’s great value for money.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests noted that the lack of an on-site bar or restaurant means a short drive is needed for meals or drinks. Others mentioned that while the location is peaceful, it’s not right in the heart of the action—ideal if you're seeking relaxation, but less so if you want to walk to everything.

The Bottom Line

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Gaylord is a reliable, restful choice for concert-goers who want a clean, quiet place to wind down after a big night out.
