The Spotlight on La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Bakersfield South

Comfort and Convenience Steps from the Stage

Modern, budget-friendly, and ideally located, La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Bakersfield South is a smart stay for travelers heading to a show. Just a 5-minute walk from Buck Owens Crystal Palace, this laid-back hotel offers clean, comfortable rooms, free Wi-Fi, and an outdoor pool and hot tub to recharge after a night out.
With pet-friendly policies and practical perks like free breakfast and a guest laundromat, it's a solid pick for music fans looking for value without giving up on comfort.

Why Concert-goers love it

Being just steps from one of Bakersfield’s top venues means you can skip the rideshare drama and stroll to your show. The hotel’s quiet residential setting makes it easy to relax after the encore, and the outdoor hot tub is a welcome treat for tired dancing feet. While the hotel doesn’t offer late check-out by default, the 11:00 am departure gives you enough time to ease into the day after a late night.

Nightlife Options

Pleasant - 3.0 out of 5

Judith, Camarillo, visiting Dignity Health Arena

Not in a very good part of town. Hard to get into the driveway - very sudden turn. Had to wait for the room to be ready. The price of the room was good but I won't stay there again.

Liked: It was fairly close to the Rabobank Arena.
Disliked: Hotel is old. Room had an order to it. Bathroom almost impossible to move around it. Very small toilet.

I would stay here again.

Liked: Location was good. Staff were professional and friendly.
Disliked: Pet fees are a daily fee instead of a one time fee. It would be more reasonable for a responsible pet owner to pay a 25.00 to 50.00 one time fee.
