The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Express & Suites Lexington Midtown By IHG

Comfy, Convenient, and Concert-Ready in Lexington

Modern and welcoming, the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Lexington Midtown By IHG offers a relaxed stay just outside downtown Lexington. With fresh, functional rooms, an indoor pool, and easy highway access, it’s a smart choice for travelers looking to be close to the action without the downtown noise. Located off Buena Vista Road, you're just a short drive from Lexington’s top music venues and nightlife spots.

Why Concert-goers love it

You'll love how easy it is to get to and from your show—most live music venues are within a 10–15 minute drive. After the encore, retreat to a peaceful, quiet room with blackout curtains and a comfortable bed. Late check-in at 3:00 PM and a convenient 11:00 AM checkout give you flexibility around your concert schedule. Free parking and proximity to major roads make it even easier to plan your night out.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking for a casual and affordable place to crash
Solo travelers on a music pilgrimage
Couples planning a fun weekend escape
Fans needing a chill, quiet place to recover after the show
Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort and convenience

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the hotel offers a free hot breakfast—perfect after a late night out. Each room includes a microwave, fridge, and coffee maker, making late-night snacks easy. Nearby fast-casual spots and diners are just a short drive away if you're hungry post-show.

Nightlife Options

You won’t find live music at the hotel, but Lexington’s vibrant music and bar scene is easily reachable by car or ride-share. Whether you're looking for local brews, low-key lounges, or late-night bites, you're never far from the action.

What People Say

Guests often praise the clean, spacious rooms and the friendly, helpful staff. The indoor pool and overall value are big hits, especially for travelers in town for events. Many reviewers highlight the hotel's quiet location that's still close to major attractions and venues.

Areas for Improvement

This isn’t a luxury or boutique spot—think practical over plush. While there’s no bar or restaurant on-site, the nearby dining options and in-room amenities make up for it. You’ll likely need a car or ride-share to get to shows, as it’s not walkable to most venues.

The Bottom Line

A clean, convenient, and budget-friendly base for concert-goers who want comfort and quiet after a night of live music.

Booking.com are thief’s.

Liked: The property was great. Would stay again. Clean, friendly staff.
Disliked: Our problem lies with Booking.com. We accidentally booked a room through them in another state prior to this booking and they have stole our money. Refuse to give us a refund stating the hotel won’t allow it. We’ve spoken to Hampton NC and they never had our cc info and would have refunded us had we not used BOOKING.COM. This was our last time using booking and advise anyone else to not do so either. We called immediately after booking when we put in gps and realized it was not Lexington KY but Lexington NC. And $574 later……nothing. Even though cancellation policy stated they would keep 1 night. We never received our other 2 night stay refund.
