Comfortable Convenience Near Albany’s Top Venues

Modern and welcoming, Homewood Suites by Hilton Albany Crossgates Mall offers a laid-back, all-suites stay just a short drive from Albany’s biggest music and entertainment spots.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel strikes the perfect balance between convenience and calm. It's just a quick drive to major performance venues, yet far enough to enjoy a quieter night's sleep after the encore. The 24-hour front desk and late 12 PM checkout are lifesavers for late-night returns, and free parking makes it easy to come and go. Getting around is simple, with easy highway access and rideshare availability.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for spacious suites to crash together
• Solo travelers on a music pilgrimage
• Couples turning a concert into a romantic weekend
• Fans craving a quieter spot to unwind post-show
• Budget-conscious music lovers wanting value and comfort

Food and Drink Options

The hotel provides a complimentary American breakfast buffet — perfect after a late night out. While on-site late-night dining is limited, you’re right next to Crossgates Mall, packed with restaurants open late. Each suite's in-room fridge lets you stash snacks and drinks for those post-concert munchies.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself offers a more chill vibe, you're just minutes from Crossgates Mall's bars and lounges and a quick drive from downtown Albany's vibrant nightlife. Prefer a low-key nightcap? The shared lounge area is a comfortable spot to wind down with friends.

What People Say

Guests rave about the clean, spacious rooms and friendly staff. The location near the mall and major highways is a big plus, and many appreciate the quiet atmosphere after a night out. The indoor pool and fitness center also get high marks for being well-maintained.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that while the hotel is close to venues, you'll likely need a car or rideshare to get downtown. Room decor is a bit traditional rather than trendy, but the comfort level more than makes up for it.

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking for a comfortable, convenient, and quiet place to stay after seeing your favorite artist, Homewood Suites by Hilton Albany Crossgates Mall is a top pick.
