The Spotlight on Howard Johnson by Wyndham Bangor

Affordable Comfort Just Minutes from Bangor's Music Scene

Modern convenience meets classic comfort at Howard Johnson by Wyndham Bangor. Located just off Odlin Road, this no-frills hotel offers budget-friendly rooms, free WiFi, and on-site parking—all within easy reach of Bangor’s top attractions and music venues. With Bangor International Airport only 1.2 miles away, it's a smart choice for out-of-town concert-goers flying in for the show.

Why Concert-goers love it

Music fans appreciate the quick drive to the Bangor Waterfront Pavilion and other local venues, making pre-show planning a breeze. With free parking and a close location to the airport, it’s ideal for travelers arriving late or leaving early. The hotel’s location is just far enough from downtown to be quieter at night, letting you unwind after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a base camp before and after the show
  • Solo travelers catching a bucket-list performance
  • Couples planning a weekend music getaway
  • Fans seeking a quiet space to relax post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value and convenience

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, guests will find local diners and fast food options within walking distance or a short drive. Several nearby spots stay open late—a bonus for post-show cravings. While there’s no breakfast buffet, in-room coffee and nearby cafés make mornings easy.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is quiet, you’ll find bars and lounges in downtown Bangor just a few minutes away. Whether you're into craft beer or casual cocktails, the local scene has something for every vibe. Afterward, returning to the hotel’s peaceful setting is a welcome change of pace.

What People Say

Guests on Booking.com and TripAdvisor often highlight the hotel’s excellent location, friendly staff, and budget-friendly rates. Many mention the cleanliness of the rooms and the convenience of being close to both the airport and Bangor’s entertainment district.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers note that the hotel is a bit dated in style, and a few rooms could use minor updates. There’s no elevator, so if stairs are a concern, request a ground-floor room. Still, most guests agree it’s a solid value for the price.

The Bottom Line

Howard Johnson by Wyndham Bangor is a reliable, affordable choice for concert-goers who want a convenient, quiet place to crash after the show without breaking the bank.

Wouldn't recommend it. Do not stay here. This place is in dire need of upgrades and reno's!

Disliked: Very overpriced! The room smelled like urine. The pool was dirty and looked to be broken down for a long time. There was no hot tub as advertised. The list goes on...
