The Spotlight on Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Kalamazoo

Comfortable Convenience Near Kalamazoo's Music Scene

Modern, clean, and quietly tucked away just a few miles from the heart of Kalamazoo, Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Kalamazoo delivers a balanced stay for music fans. With easy access to downtown venues, free WiFi, and free private parking, this hotel is a smart base for concert nights and relaxed mornings. Located just 1.9 miles from Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport, you’re in for a stress-free arrival and departure.

Guests enjoy access to an indoor pool, a 24-hour front desk, and a cozy shared lounge for winding down after a big night out. Plus, you're within reach of major local spots like Miller Auditorium and Waldo Stadium for shows and events.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel’s location is a win for fans—about 15 minutes from most major Kalamazoo music venues and a straight shot from the airport. The free private parking means no late-night street searching after the encore. Thanks to the hotel’s suburban setting, noise levels are low, making it a great place to crash post-show. The 3:00 PM check-in and generous 12:00 PM check-out give you plenty of flexibility before and after your event.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for affordable comfort near the action
  • Solo travelers flying in to catch their favorite artist
  • Couples planning a music-filled weekend escape
  • Fans needing a quiet space to recharge after a loud night
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want solid amenities

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the hotel serves a free breakfast—perfect if you're recovering from a late night. For other meals, several eateries are just a short drive or rideshare away. Late-night food seekers may want to plan ahead, as in-hotel dining options are limited after hours.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself keeps things chill, the location puts you within easy Uber distance of downtown Kalamazoo’s bars, breweries, and live music spots. After a concert, head into town for a craft cocktail or local beer before calling it a night.

What People Say

Guests love the clean rooms, friendly staff, and quiet environment. Reviewers on Booking.com and TripAdvisor mention the easy check-in process and comfortable beds as highlights. Many also note the hotel’s convenient location and airport proximity as major pluses for out-of-town concert-goers.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel doesn’t have its own restaurant or bar, which could be a downside if you're looking to keep the night going on-site. It’s also about 6–7 miles from downtown venues, so you'll need a car or rideshare for most concerts.

The Bottom Line

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Kalamazoo is a clean, quiet, and convenient launchpad for music lovers looking to enjoy the Kalamazoo scene without the downtown price tag.

It was nice

Liked: The property is clean and nice and quiet , the front desk girl was very nice and sweet.
Disliked: I don’t like the fact you have to turn in wash rags and towels to get some new ones it need to be more than 2 rags and 2 towels you cannot use the rag you wash your body with to wash your face thats very nasty. The pool was very dirty it look like it wasn’t clean at all , the place is nice but i feel like if you paying all this money for these you should’ve have enough face rags and towels next time i come i will bring my own wash rags and towels

Overall Positive.. but our bed

Liked: The overall stay was excellent. Staff was available, kind, and able to answer any questions we had. The breakfast was good, as well. They offered a good variety of Bacon, Sausage, Croissants, Bagels, Cereal, & more. I would say it was slightly better than average, because they offered lots of cold options & only a few hot cooked options (Bacon & Sausage); As a side note, they did have Spinach Quiches which were honestly a huge surprise to see. I believe they served those on Friday Morning.
Disliked: Our bed was Really stiff. We ended up cutting our 4-night stay short, seeing as we were only a couple hours from home. This truly was our only complaint; our backs couldn't take another night in that bed.

Disappointing

Liked: Cleanliness, convenient location.
Disliked: Bed very hard. Kids slamming door and running up and down the halls constantly. Worst part I produced a card when I checked which was different from the one I booked with. I asked them to use the card I provided them in person. They already charged even there was no prepayment needed and used the card I presented to them in person for a whole other fee. Very upsetting.
