SpringHill Suites by Marriott Gainesville

Stylish Comfort Just Minutes from Gainesville’s Music Scene

Modern, spacious, and well-placed, SpringHill Suites by Marriott Gainesville blends comfort with convenience in a relaxed setting just 3.5 miles from the University of Florida. With contemporary suites, free shuttle service, and easy access to local attractions, this 3-star hotel is a smart pick for music lovers looking to stay close to the action while enjoying a peaceful night’s sleep.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert-goers appreciate the hotel’s proximity to major venues like Ben Hill Griffin Stadium and Regal Cinemas Royal Park Stadium 16 — both less than 5 miles away. The free shuttle service is a massive perk for late-night returns, and the 24-hour front desk makes check-in a breeze, even after a late encore. Despite its central location, the atmosphere remains quiet, making it perfect for unwinding post-show.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for suite-style rooms with extra space
• Solo travelers catching their must-see artist
• Couples turning a concert into a weekend getaway
• Fans needing a chill space to recover after the show
• Budget-conscious travelers who still want quality and convenience

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no full-service restaurant on-site, guests can enjoy a hearty American or buffet breakfast — ideal for those late mornings after a big night out. Vending machines with snacks and drinks are available 24/7, and the hotel’s location makes it easy to walk or shuttle to nearby dining spots. There’s also a microwave and mini-fridge in each suite for late-night cravings.

Nightlife Options

Though there’s no on-site bar, the hotel is just a short drive or shuttle ride from Gainesville’s best bars, local breweries, and laid-back lounge spots. Whether you're after a pre-show drink or a post-concert nightcap, you’ll find plenty of options nearby without the noise of staying next door to the crowd.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the friendly staff, clean, spacious rooms, and the convenient location. Many reviews highlight the value of the free shuttle and the generous 12:00 pm check-out, which gives you time to sleep in after a late night. The quiet, relaxed atmosphere is also a hit with travelers looking to unwind.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the breakfast area can get crowded during peak times, and a few noted that the pool is on the smaller side. Still, these are minor issues compared to the overall positive experience.

The Bottom Line

SpringHill Suites by Marriott Gainesville is a comfy, quiet, and convenient base for concert fans who want easy access to venues — without sacrificing rest or comfort.
