The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Express & Suites Northwood By IHG

Comfort and Convenience Just Minutes from Diamond Jo Casino

Modern, relaxed, and ideally located, the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Northwood is a top pick for concert-goers heading to events at Diamond Jo Casino—just a mile down the road. With cozy furnishings, free Wi-Fi, and a welcoming vibe, this hotel makes it easy to unwind after a night of live music.

Why Concert-goers love it

Being only 1 mile from Diamond Jo Casino makes this hotel a no-brainer for anyone attending a show there. Guests love the quiet atmosphere that’s perfect for winding down, yet still close enough to the action. The 24-hour front desk means you won’t stress about late arrivals, and free parking is a bonus for road-trippers. Plus, the jacuzzi and indoor pool are perfect for post-concert relaxation.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking for a comfy base near the venue
Solo travelers chasing bucket-list performances
Couples enjoying a weekend escape with a concert highlight
Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery space
Budget-conscious music fans who still want modern amenities

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, guests rave about the free breakfast, which is perfect for those groggy mornings after a late night. There are also casual dining spots nearby, including options at the Diamond Jo Casino. Coffee makers in the room and quick bites in the lobby make it easy to grab a snack any time.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is more about comfort than clubbing, you're just a short hop from the casino’s bars and entertainment venues. Whether you're catching a live show or grabbing a drink post-concert, everything you need is close by. Back at the hotel, the quiet ambiance is ideal for winding down.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the clean, spacious rooms and the friendly service. The pool and jacuzzi are favorites for relaxing, especially after standing in a crowd all night. The location is consistently praised for being super convenient to the casino while offering a peaceful stay away from the noise.

Areas for Improvement

Some travelers mention that the breakfast options are basic, and the area is a bit quiet if you're looking for non-casino nightlife. But for a restful night after a big concert, that can actually be a plus.

The Bottom Line

If you're headed to a show at Diamond Jo Casino and want a comfortable, quiet, and affordable place to stay just minutes away, Holiday Inn Express & Suites Northwood hits all the right notes.

Good - 3.5 out of 5

A place to sleep.

Liked: Our room was on the first floor near the lobby. Beds were comfy, pillows were not.
Disliked: Breakfast offerings were very hit or miss. Coffee was good. Pillows had no body/support and just went flat. Pricing was on the high side, most we had to pay on this 7 night trip.
