Staybridge Suites Auburn Hills by IHG

Your Home Base for Michigan's Best Live Shows

Modern and welcoming, Staybridge Suites Auburn Hills sits just outside Detroit, offering concert-goers a cozy stay with a residential vibe. Located 30 miles from downtown and only a short drive to major venues like Meadow Brook Music Festival and DTE Energy Music Theatre, it's a quiet yet convenient spot to crash after a big night out. With spacious suites, free parking, and an indoor pool, it’s a solid choice for music fans looking to unwind.

Why Concert-goers love it

One of the biggest draws here is the free shuttle service, making it easier to get to nearby venues without stressing over parking. The hotel is just 4.5 miles from Meadow Brook and 14 miles from DTE Energy Music Theatre—ideal for catching that headlining act. Plus, the 24-hour front desk and late 12:00 PM checkout mean you won't be rushed after a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a suite-style stay with plenty of space
• Solo travelers chasing bucket-list shows
• Couples making a weekend escape out of a concert
• Fans needing a quiet post-show spot to recharge
• Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort and perks

Food and Drink Options

While there's no full restaurant on-site, free daily breakfast (including buffet and American-style options) makes mornings after the show a little easier. The in-room kitchenettes let you whip up late-night bites, and there are BBQ facilities if you want to grill with friends. Local restaurants are just a short drive or shuttle ride away.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t offer live music or a bar, you're just a quick trip from Auburn Hills' casual lounges and neighborhood bars. It’s a quieter scene, which is perfect if you’re looking to chill after the concert rather than keep the party going.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the spacious rooms, friendly staff, and clean, quiet environment. Many love that it feels more like a home than a hotel, especially with the full-size fridge and seating areas in some rooms. The indoor pool and fitness center are also appreciated extras.

Areas for Improvement

The vibe is more laid-back than lively, so if you're looking for an on-site party scene, this might not be your jam. Some guests mention that the immediate area is better navigated by car or shuttle than on foot.

The Bottom Line

If you're catching a show and want a comfortable, convenient, and low-stress base with helpful amenities, Staybridge Suites Auburn Hills hits the right note.
