The Spotlight on Sumner Motor Inn

Comfortable, No-Frills Stay Close to the Action

Located in the heart of Sumner, the Sumner Motor Inn offers a simple, budget-friendly base just 30 minutes from the White River Amphitheater. This modest, air-conditioned motel is perfect for travelers looking to keep things low-key while staying within easy reach of great live music, Mt. Rainier, and local dining.
Each room is cozy and functional, with classic floral decor, a microwave and mini-fridge, and free Wi-Fi to help you plan your night out or stream your favorite playlists. Plus, with vending machines and parking on-site, you’ll have everything you need right at your fingertips.

Why Concert-goers love it

The biggest draw? Proximity. Just a short drive to major venues like the White River Amphitheater, Sumner Motor Inn puts you close to the music without the downtown price tag. The vibe is quiet and laid-back—ideal for unwinding post-show. While there’s no late-night shuttle service, parking is easy and local ride-shares are available. Check-in starts at 3:00 pm, perfect for arriving before a gig, and 11:00 am checkout gives you a bit of time to recover the next day.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable crash pad after the show
  • Solo travelers making the most of a bucket-list concert
  • Couples on a weekend music getaway
  • Fans seeking a quieter space to wind down after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want to save on lodging and spend more on tickets

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the motel is within walking distance of the East Side Shopping Center, which offers a variety of restaurants and takeout options. Great for grabbing a quick bite after a show. Though there’s no 24/7 room service, the in-room microwave and fridge make midnight snacks easy. Ideal for sleeping in, though note there's no breakfast available on-site.

Nightlife Options

Though the motel itself doesn’t offer nightlife, it’s just a short drive from local bars and lounges in downtown Sumner and Auburn. Whether you’re chasing one more drink or a chill wind-down, you’ll find a few solid options nearby.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the clean rooms, friendly staff, and great value for the price. Many highlight the quiet atmosphere—a major plus after a loud night out. The location is also a common highlight, especially for those heading to concerts or exploring Mt. Rainier.

Areas for Improvement

This is a no-frills motel, so don’t expect luxury extras. Some guests mention the décor could use an update, and there’s no lobby lounge or on-site dining. But for a spot to crash between gigs or hikes, it gets the job done.

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly, quiet spot close to White River Amphitheater, Sumner Motor Inn is a smart and simple choice.
