The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Express and Suites Merrimack By IHG

Comfortable Convenience Near Merrimack's Music & Entertainment

Modern and unfussy, the Holiday Inn Express and Suites Merrimack By IHG offers a laid-back stay with everything you need just minutes from the action. Set right off the highway and only 5 miles from central Nashua, this hotel is a practical choice for concert-goers who want comfort, value, and easy access to both venues and local attractions. With free Wi-Fi, an outdoor pool, and guest rooms equipped with work desks and coffee makers, it’s a low-fuss home base for your music-filled getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

You're just a short drive from several popular live music venues in the Nashua and Manchester areas, making this a smart pick for fans who want to stay close without the downtown noise. The hotel offers free parking and quick highway access, plus check-in starts at 3:00 PM—perfect if you're arriving in town the day of a show. It's also far enough from the nightlife buzz to give you a quiet space to recharge post-concert.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends road-tripping for a show
  • Solo travelers catching a once-in-a-lifetime artist
  • Couples turning a concert into a weekend escape
  • Fans who appreciate a quieter, more relaxed post-show space
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want solid value

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the hotel offers a free hot breakfast—a lifesaver after a late night. You’ll also find fast food and sit-down spots just a short drive or walk away. While there’s no full room service or bar, the in-room coffee makers and nearby convenience stores mean you won’t go hungry late at night.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is on the quieter side, you’re only a short drive from Nashua’s downtown bars, local breweries, and lounges. After your concert, head into town for craft cocktails or a low-key nightcap, then return to your peaceful room away from the crowds.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, spotless rooms, and convenient location. Many mention the great value, especially considering the free breakfast and reliable Wi-Fi. Travelers also appreciate how easy it is to get on and off the highway, making it ideal for regional concert trips.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel doesn’t have a bar or restaurant on-site, and late-night dining options are limited without a car. While the location is great for drivers, it’s not the most walkable spot if you’re relying on rideshares or public transit.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a show in southern New Hampshire and want a clean, quiet, and affordable place to crash after, the Holiday Inn Express and Suites Merrimack By IHG has you covered.

Superb

Liked: The room was comfortable and clean loved the fact we had coffee Machine and refrig. The breakfast area was comfortable with lots of tables and the food was a good variety. The lady who served the breakfast was very friendly and was there to help with anything. We used the breakfast area to read our books in the afternoon. I left my jacket there, and someone was kind enough to give it to the front desk where I retrieved it.
Disliked: The curtains in the room did not close and the lights from the stores across the way and on the bldg made it hard to sleep and early in morning like 6 am was as bright as noon.

Your hotel is beginning to...

Liked: Breakfast was great. The employee managing the breakfast did a great job.
Disliked: The cooling system did NOT work properly. When requesting cool, warm air spewed out of the unit. The occupant in the adjoining room left his tv on most of the night (4:30 am). Between the ac not working, the temperature rising with rising humidity in the room and the tv noise kept me up most of the night.
