The Spotlight on Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Wilkes-Barre Scranton

Comfort and Convenience Just Minutes from the Action

Modern, clean, and casual, the Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Wilkes-Barre Scranton is a great mid-range hotel in Wilkes-Barre, offering a peaceful retreat just a short drive from local concert venues and nightlife. Located right on Kidder Street, this hotel is close to shopping, dining, and outdoor activities, making it a smart pick whether you're here for a show or a weekend escape.

Expect well-kept rooms, a friendly staff, and amenities like an indoor pool, hot tub, free WiFi, and complimentary breakfast — all designed to make your stay easy and affordable.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert fans appreciate the hotel’s easy access to major venues in the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area — you're roughly 15–20 minutes from most shows. Late-night arrivals are no problem with the 24-hour front desk, and the no-fuss check-in at 3:00 PM and generous 12:00 PM checkout make planning around performances a breeze. Though not in the middle of the nightlife, its location offers a quieter atmosphere for winding down after a loud night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a budget-friendly stay near the music scene
  • Solo travelers in town for a must-see show
  • Couples planning a concert-filled weekend getaway
  • Fans who want a restful post-show space
  • Budget-conscious music lovers seeking value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

Start your day right with a free American-style breakfast buffet — perfect after a late night. While there’s no on-site restaurant for dinner or late-night eats, you're within walking or short driving distance to multiple restaurants and fast-food spots on Kidder Street. The hotel also offers a shared lounge area if you just want to relax with takeout.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is quiet, you’re close to local bars and lounges in Wilkes-Barre and Scranton. It's a quick drive to the city’s music venues, pubs, and breweries. If you're up for it, downtown areas offer live music spots and late-night fun just a short Uber away.

What People Say

  • Guests love the cleanliness and comfortable rooms
  • Reviewers highlight the hotel’s friendly and helpful staff
  • Many mention the free breakfast as a nice touch
  • Travelers appreciate the quiet atmosphere and easy parking
  • A repeat stay for many travelers attending events in the area

Areas for Improvement

Some guests noted that the hotel is a bit out of the way if you’re looking to walk to nightlife, so be ready to drive or grab a ride. Also, the indoor pool area can get a little crowded during peak times. But hey, after a concert, you might just want your bed anyway!

The Bottom Line

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Wilkes-Barre Scranton is a great value for concert-goers looking for a clean, quiet, and convenient place to recharge after the show.

Good

Disliked: I didn’t like that we expected to be able to use the hot tub that was broken. Also went in the shower. Went to use the conditioner and it was completely empty and there was not any left in them container and then I was the first one to take a shower And when cleaning up the room opened up one of the drawers and there was two old Reed’s cups with a bunch of spoons that evidently it wasn’t clean good and the blankets we want to use the night before we’re really dirty so we went to the desk to get more blankets and they were out so that was a little disappointing

It was good expect for...

Liked: Location, Friendly staff, comfortable room, affordable
Disliked: I paid through Bookings.com and when I arrived I was charged again. I told the receptionist I was already charged and she said I wasn’t but if I was they would take care of it at checkout. Well I did pay through booking.com and had to leave hoping I would not be charged again through my other credit card because the receptionist had to make calls to corporate to fix it.
