The Spotlight on Motel 6-Portsmouth VA

Simple Comfort Close to the Stage

Modern essentials meet budget-friendly rates at Motel 6-Portsmouth VA. Located in Portsmouth, just off London Boulevard, this 2-star hotel keeps things easy and accessible with clean, air-conditioned rooms, free WiFi, and a no-frills vibe. It’s a practical home base whether you're catching a show in downtown Norfolk or heading out to the Virginia Beach scene.

Why Concert-goers love it

If you're chasing live music in Norfolk or Virginia Beach, this hotel puts you within a short drive of several top venues. The 24-hour front desk means late check-ins after a long night are no problem, and free WiFi helps you upload those concert clips in no time. The hotel is also a quick 15-minute drive from Norfolk International Airport—perfect for out-of-town fans flying in for a big night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want a simple, shared space before and after the show
  • Solo travelers checking off a must-see artist on their list
  • Couples making a weekend of it without overspending
  • Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery space just outside the downtown buzz
  • Budget-conscious music fans who'd rather spend more on tickets than lodging

Food and Drink Options

While Motel 6-Portsmouth VA doesn’t have an on-site restaurant, each room features a kitchenette—a big plus for late-night snacks or morning-after coffee. Several fast food spots and local diners are within walking or short driving distance, making it easy to grab a bite before or after your show. Bonus: no overpriced hotel breakfasts here!

Nightlife Options

You won’t find live music or a bar on-site, but the hotel’s location gives easy access to downtown Norfolk’s nightlife, just over the river. Whether you're into craft brews, rooftop lounges, or low-key cocktail spots, you're just a quick Uber or Lyft away from the action.

What People Say

Travelers appreciate the value for money and the clean, comfortable rooms. Many mention the helpful front desk staff and the convenience of a quick check-in. The location is also a win for guests heading to both Norfolk and Virginia Beach events.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel keeps things basic, so don’t expect luxury extras. Some guests note that the area can feel industrial, and while the rooms are clean, the décor is more “function over fashion.” But for the price, most agree it’s a fair trade-off.

The Bottom Line

Motel 6-Portsmouth VA is a smart, no-frills choice for concert-goers who want a clean, affordable place to crash between shows and city adventures.

Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Brice, Dover, visiting The Norva Sun, 10 May 2015

The room was filthy. The microwave was broken - t looked like it had been punched in. There was a huge hole in the wall in the bathroom. Big roaches in the bathroom. The fridge looked like someone had thrwn up on it. The lamps by the bed didn't work. And there was no comforter.

Disliked: Dirty; bugs; faulty electrics.

Reduce the price or fix...

Liked: It’s not worth the money!
Disliked: Because it kept like an old rooming house. There is no color or picture on the walls. The maid doesn’t do a good job cleaning. It is cheap motel with hotel prices.

Liked: The manager is an exceptional man. He is always friendly and presents himself as one who is working within a particularly sect of location that is exceptionally hit by social inadequacies of our economic downturn.
