Comfortable & Convenient Stay Near Bakersfield's Music Scene

Modern, relaxed, and well-equipped, the Holiday Inn Express & Suites BAKERSFIELD AIRPORT offers a quiet retreat just a short drive from Bakersfield’s top entertainment venues. With easy access to major highways and the airport, it’s a smart base for any music lover heading into town for a show.
Guests enjoy free WiFi, a daily hot breakfast, an inviting outdoor pool and spa, and a 24-hour fitness center. The rooms are clean and comfy, some featuring extra space to unwind after a big night out.

Why Concert-goers love it

The hotel’s location near the airport means you’re just a quick ride from many of Bakersfield’s popular concert venues. Soundproofed rooms and a quieter neighborhood setting make it easy to wind down after the show. With check-in at 3:00 PM and check-out at 11:00 AM, there’s enough flexibility to sleep in. Plus, ride shares and late-night food options are easy to come by, even after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends heading to a gig and looking for a budget-friendly base
• Solo travelers flying in for that bucket-list concert
• Couples planning a weekend concert getaway
• Fans looking for a quieter, restful space post-show
• Budget-conscious music lovers who still want solid amenities

Food and Drink Options

While there's no full-service restaurant onsite, the hotel provides a free hot breakfast daily—perfect for those late mornings after a night out. Several casual dining spots are a quick drive or delivery order away. Though late-night dining is limited onsite, the proximity to the airport area means you’ll have access to food options even after dark.

Nightlife Options

The hotel itself is more low-key, geared toward relaxation rather than revelry. However, downtown Bakersfield’s bars, clubs, and live music joints are just a short drive away. It’s easy to catch a post-show drink or keep the night going before heading back to your quiet room.

What People Say

Guests frequently mention the cleanliness of the rooms, the friendly staff, and how convenient the location is for both the airport and local venues. The free breakfast is a consistent highlight, and many appreciate the reliable WiFi and comfortable beds—key for tired travelers.

Areas for Improvement

While most guests enjoy their stay, some note the lack of on-site dining or bar options, especially for those wanting to hang out after a show. The area around the hotel is more functional than scenic—but that also means it’s quiet when you’re ready to crash.

The Bottom Line

Holiday Inn Express & Suites BAKERSFIELD AIRPORT is a clean, comfortable, and convenient choice for concert-goers who want a peaceful place to recharge after the show.
