The Spotlight on Sleep Inn & Suites Lincoln University Area

Relaxed Comfort Just Minutes from Lincoln’s Top Stages

Modern, clean, and welcoming, Sleep Inn & Suites Lincoln University Area is a 3-star hotel that delivers both convenience and comfort. Located just 4 miles from Lincoln Memorial Stadium and close to other key attractions like the University of Nebraska State Museum and Bob Devaney Sports Center, it's a smart pick for music fans visiting the city. With free WiFi, an indoor pool, hot tub, and 24-hour front desk, it’s got everything you need for a stress-free concert weekend.

Why Concert-goers love it

Music lovers appreciate how close the hotel is to major venues—just a short drive or ride away, so you won't miss a beat. After a loud night out, the peaceful location offers a quiet retreat for much-needed rest. With a 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM checkout, there’s enough flexibility to fit around late-night shows. Plus, the indoor hot tub is a hit with guests winding down after an energetic evening.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends heading to a show together will love the spacious rooms and communal vibe.
Solo travelers chasing that once-in-a-lifetime performance get a secure, calming place to recharge.
Couples making a weekend of it will enjoy the wellness amenities and quiet surroundings.
Fans needing recovery space will appreciate the peaceful setting and calming hot tub.
Budget-conscious music fans can enjoy quality without breaking the bank.

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel doesn’t offer on-site dining or 24/7 room service, free breakfast is available—a major plus after a late night. There are several local eateries within a short drive, making late-night cravings easy to satisfy. Vending machines and nearby fast food options help fill the gap.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is more of a wind-down zone than a party spot, Lincoln’s lively bars and lounges are a quick ride away. Whether you’re into laid-back breweries or energetic dance floors, you won’t have to go far to keep the night going.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the cleanliness of the rooms, the friendly staff, and the quiet atmosphere. Many reviews highlight the comfort of the beds and the convenience of being close to the university and stadiums. The indoor pool and hot tub also get regular shout-outs.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the hotel is slightly tucked away, so it might require a GPS to find easily. Others note limited dining options within walking distance—but with a car or ride-share, it's no big deal.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers seeking a calm, clean, and comfortable base just minutes from Lincoln’s best venues, Sleep Inn & Suites Lincoln University Area hits all the right notes.

Peggy, Decorah, visiting Lancaster Event Center

The Sleep Inn was a wonderful surprise. Though the price was very reasonable, it never felt like a budget accommodation. The room was comfortable, nicely decorated; the morning breakfast offerings were well beyond what I usually find at the competition. I will definitely come back!

Liked: Friendly staff; immaculately clean; ice water and cookies on offer in the lobby.
Disliked: No complaints!

Liked: Love everything about this place. The guy at night at the front desk is the best. Has the best xostomer service. Breakfast is good. Clean. Smells good. Hot tub and pool are always great. This is our go to when we come to Lincoln to visit family, and our daughter goes to Wesleyan College. Every other weekend.
Disliked: Having to leave at 11 am. And i dont care for the 4th floor. I have vertigo, and the elevator makes me dizzy if im in for too long.

I would recommend this hotel...

Liked: The location was large, open and airy. Plenty of food options. The room was very comfortable. The cleaning staff worked very hard and was extremely helpful. On the down side, one of the elevators broke one week in to our stay and hasn’t been fixed causing crowding especially on weekends. Love the cookies !
