The Spotlight on Horizon Inn

Affordable Comfort Just Minutes from Lincoln’s Top Music Venues

Modern convenience meets homey charm at Horizon Inn, a no-frills, all non-smoking motel in Lincoln, Nebraska. Located just 2 miles from downtown and Pinnacle Bank Arena, this budget-friendly stay is ideal for travelers looking to be close to the action without sacrificing comfort. With free WiFi, expanded cable TV, and free parking, Horizon Inn keeps things simple and stress-free.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re just a quick drive (or rideshare) from the biggest shows in town—only 2 miles from Pinnacle Bank Arena and the University of Nebraska, making it super convenient for catching your favorite artist. Despite its proximity to venues, guests often comment on the quiet, restful atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a high-energy night. With a 2:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM checkout, there’s a bit of flexibility to make your concert experience smoother.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends road-tripping to a show
  • Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list concert
  • Couples making a romantic weekend of it
  • Fans seeking a quiet, no-fuss recovery spot
  • Budget-conscious music lovers needing value and location

Food and Drink Options

While Horizon Inn doesn’t offer on-site dining, it does provide continental breakfast items—ideal after a late night out. There are several local diners and takeout spots within a short drive. If you’re craving something quick post-show, you’ll find plenty of late-night eats nearby.

Nightlife Options

You’re just 2 miles from downtown Lincoln, where you’ll find a solid mix of bars, lounges, and live music venues. Whether you want to keep the party going or enjoy a chill nightcap, you won’t have to go far.

What People Say

Guests love the cleanliness and value of the rooms, and the friendly, helpful staff gets consistent praise. Many reviewers mention the convenient location for events at the arena and the airport proximity for easy travel. The free WiFi and cable TV are also appreciated perks.

Areas for Improvement

This isn’t a luxury stay—and that’s okay! Some guests mention that the decor is a bit dated, and amenities are basic. There’s no gym or pool, and the breakfast is light. But if you’re here for a concert, you’re likely not spending much time in the room anyway.

The Bottom Line

Horizon Inn is a smart, affordable choice for concert-goers looking for a clean, quiet place to crash—just minutes from Lincoln’s top music venues.

Pleasant

Liked: Comfortable bed. Easy access to interstate and downtown Lincoln. Friendly and helpful staff. Dorm fridge worked well.
Disliked: Insufficient hot water for showering. Shower head not properly attached to stem (had to wrap a wash cloth around it to keep water from spraying all over). Shower pressure inadequate. Body towels threadbare, small, and rough. Bathroom sink had no stopper -- couldn't fill sink to wash face.
