The Spotlight on Motel 6 Peterborough

Affordable Comfort Close to the Stage

Modern simplicity meets convenience at Motel 6 Peterborough, a no-frills, budget-friendly hotel located just a short drive from downtown Peterborough’s live music venues. With clean, functional rooms, free Wi-Fi, and cable TV, it's a smart pick for music lovers who want to save their money for the merch table.

Situated just a mile from The Canadian Canoe Museum and Liftlock Cruises, this hotel offers easy access to the city's attractions and nightlife after the show.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert attendees appreciate the close proximity to local venues, including downtown Peterborough’s bars and performance spaces. After a show, you’ll come back to a quiet, low-key environment that's perfect for winding down. The 24-hour front desk makes late check-ins a breeze, and the free parking is a bonus for those road-tripping in.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable stay near the action
  • Solo travelers catching a long-awaited show
  • Couples making a weekend escape with music as the highlight
  • Fans needing a quiet space to crash and recharge after a late night
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value without sacrificing location

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, guests will find plenty of casual dining options within walking distance, including fast food and local diners. Grab a bite before or after the show—Peterborough’s late-night eateries are only minutes away. There’s also a small dining area in each room if you prefer takeout or delivery.

Nightlife Options

Located close to downtown, you’ll be able to walk or take a short drive to bars, pubs, and lounges that feature live music, DJ sets, and local craft drinks. While the hotel itself doesn’t have a bar, it serves as a quiet home base after a lively night out.

What People Say

Reviews highlight the hotel’s cleanliness, friendly staff, and unbeatable value. Guests mention it’s an ideal place to crash after concerts, with easy access to local attractions and a good night’s rest thanks to the peaceful vibe.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers mention that the hotel is a bit basic, and while the décor is minimal, it’s clean and functional. There’s no breakfast service, so plan ahead for your morning meal. A few guests noted soundproofing could be better—but it’s generally quiet at night.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a simple, affordable stay close to the music scene, Motel 6 Peterborough hits the right note for concert-goers on a budget.

Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

Pamela Mon, 14 April 2025

The price affected my choice...

Liked: Room was clean
Disliked: Couldn’t sleep because of all the noise from adjacent room as well as the room above on next floor due to thin walls, etc. I could hear people walking in the next room and going to the bathroom and flushing the toilet, and the room I stayed in was right beside an exit door left open with a stone which when closed banged against the stone! The bed was lopsided in one side which made it hard to centre the body, and floor was cold.
