The Spotlight on SpringHill Suites by Marriott Albany-Colonie

Comfort and Convenience Near Albany's Top Music Venues

Modern and relaxed, SpringHill Suites by Marriott Albany-Colonie is a comfortable 3-star hotel just a short drive from downtown Albany and some of the city’s most iconic entertainment spaces. Located only 5 miles from The Egg Center for the Performing Arts and other major venues, this all-suite hotel offers spacious accommodations, an indoor pool, and a quiet, suburban setting to recharge after a night out.

Perfectly positioned between the airport and the city center, it's a reliable choice for both flying in for a big show or driving up for a weekend of music and fun.

Check-in starts at 3:00 PM, and with a generous 12:00 PM checkout, you’ll have time to sleep in after a late night.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel hits the sweet spot for music fans — it's just 5 miles from downtown venues like The Egg and Albany City Hall, making for quick rideshares or drives before and after a show. The quiet neighborhood means you can actually rest after the encore, and the late checkout gives you a relaxed morning after. With free bike rentals, getting around is even easier during the day.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking for roomy suites and a chill base
Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list concert
Couples planning a relaxed music weekend
Fans who want to unwind somewhere quiet post-show
Budget-conscious travelers who still want comfort and convenience

Food and Drink Options

While there's no on-site restaurant, the hotel offers a free breakfast — ideal after a late night out. For other meals, you’re just minutes from a variety of local eateries and casual dining spots in the Colonie area. Though there’s no 24/7 room service, the hotel’s suites include mini-fridges and microwaves for quick bites when you get back late.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t feature a bar or live music, its proximity to Albany’s nightlife means you're never far from an afterparty. Downtown bars, lounges, and music clubs are just a short ride away — and you can return to peace and quiet once it’s time to call it a night.

What People Say

Many love the location — close to the airport, the highway, and music venues
Travelers appreciate the indoor pool as a great way to relax before or after a concert
Free parking and easy access to downtown Albany are major pluses

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention limited dining options within walking distance
The hotel doesn’t have an on-site bar, so evening drinks require a short trip
If you're looking for a party vibe, this hotel leans more toward quiet comfort

The Bottom Line

If you’re heading to Albany for a concert and want a quiet, comfy place to crash that’s close to the action but away from the chaos, SpringHill Suites Albany-Colonie is a top pick.

Overall Great but a little...

Liked: Overall the room, the staff, the breakfirst are great
Disliked: A little bit too expensive

Superb

I hate to sound negative...

Liked: Location close to UAlbany
Disliked: AC was broken, loose tiles in the bathroom and toilet seat was broken. There were renovations going on, but that room should not have been given to a guest. It was unexpected and disappointing.
