Residence Inn by Marriott Lexington North

Spacious Suites and a Laid-Back Vibe Close to the Action

Modern comfort meets Southern charm at the Residence Inn by Marriott Lexington North. Just over 2 miles from downtown Lexington’s top concert venues, this all-suite hotel offers a relaxed atmosphere, ideal for music lovers who want convenience without the downtown noise. With a seasonal outdoor pool, sun terrace, and family-friendly suites featuring full kitchens, it's a great mix of comfort and flexibility.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything—and being just 2.2 miles from Rupp Arena and other downtown venues means you’re never far from the main stage. After the music ends, head back to your quiet suite for some well-earned rest. Late-night arrivals are no problem with a 3:00 PM check-in and generous 12:00 PM check-out. Free WiFi and a 24-hour front desk mean you’ll stay connected and supported, no matter how late your encore runs.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for roomy suites with kitchens to share
• Solo travelers catching their dream show
• Couples enjoying a weekend of music and relaxation
• Fans wanting a quieter space to wind down post-show
• Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort and space

Food and Drink Options

The hotel offers a complimentary buffet, continental, or American breakfast—perfect for those sleeping in after a late night. While there’s no on-site restaurant, each suite includes a full kitchen and fridge, making late-night snacks easy. You’ll also find several fast-casual and sit-down dining spots within a short drive for pre- or post-show bites.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself keeps things low-key, you're just a brief drive or ride-share away from Lexington’s buzzing bar and club scene. Whether you're in the mood for a craft cocktail lounge, a local dive bar, or another round of live music, downtown nightlife is easily accessible.

What People Say

Guests love the spacious, apartment-style rooms and the convenience of having a full kitchen. Many mention the helpful, bilingual staff and the peaceful location. Reviewers also praise the cleanliness and value, especially for extended stays or group trips.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that while the hotel isn’t right in the heart of downtown, the short drive or ride-share makes up for it. Others wish there were more on-site dining or nightlife options, but the in-room kitchens help fill the gap.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a quiet, spacious place to crash after a big show—without sacrificing proximity to Lexington's top venues—Residence Inn by Marriott Lexington North hits all the right notes.
