The Spotlight on The Blake Hotel

Upscale Comfort Steps from New Haven's Music Scene

Modern, elegant, and effortlessly cool, The Blake Hotel brings boutique luxury to the heart of downtown New Haven. Just a short walk from Yale University and top concert spots, this design-forward hotel blends sleek style with warm hospitality. With an on-site restaurant, rooftop bar, and plush rooms, it's an ideal base for music fans coming to town for a show.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and The Blake delivers—just a 9-minute stroll to City Hall and a mile to Yale University venues. The area is walkable and safe, making post-show returns easy even late at night. While the hotel is in a lively area, the rooms are known for being peaceful and soundproofed, offering a quiet retreat after a high-energy night. Check-in starts at 4:00 PM and checkout is at 11:00 AM, but the friendly multilingual staff are happy to help with local tips and flexible arrangements when possible.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish base near the action
  • Solo travelers catching a once-in-a-lifetime gig
  • Couples making a romantic weekend out of a concert
  • Fans who want a serene, upscale space to unwind post-show
  • Budget-conscious fans willing to splurge a little for 4-star comfort

Food and Drink Options

Craving a bite after the encore? The Blake’s on-site restaurant and rooftop bar have you covered. The lobby snack bar is perfect for quick late-night grabs, and breakfast is available for those who need a slow start after a big night. While 24/7 room service isn't listed, the on-site dining and walkable food scene nearby offer plenty of delicious options.

Nightlife Options

Whether you want to keep the night going or wind down, the rooftop bar provides a chic setting with drinks and city views. You're also just steps away from downtown New Haven’s buzzing nightlife, including cozy lounges and local bars where the music keeps playing long after the concert ends.

What People Say

Guests rave about the modern decor, friendly staff, and spotless rooms. The rooftop bar is a particular favorite, with many praising the views and cocktails. Reviewers also highlight the hotel’s walkability and close proximity to Yale and downtown venues as a big plus for concert-goers.

Areas for Improvement

Parking is available but not included in the room rate, which might be a small downside for drivers. Some guests mentioned that while the rooftop bar is a highlight, it can get busy—so plan ahead if you want a spot with a view.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to New Haven for a concert, The Blake Hotel is a sleek, stylish launchpad that puts you near the music—and gives you a restful, upscale place to recharge after the show.

Liked: Lobby very nicely laid out. Room was nice.
Disliked: The greeting at the lobby was very random when checking in. Seemed my booking had come through as ambiguous name - not my fault - but it felt very much like my fault. Strange but could have been handled better. It was almost embarrassing Room was nice but very very cold temp on entering. Also, room was very very sparse. Felt uninviting. Not a great view for the price. Could have reviewed this a little on check in

Liked: Stylish rooms, clean, with good design and decently sized. Lobby was large with a nice ground floor restaurant. Our car was very close at hand for a quick retrieval.
Disliked: Room AC was broken and the room was absolutely sweltering all night. It was also noisy and made a regular thumping sound, like someone was dropping a big box on the floor again and again.No assistance with baggage by valet or hotel staff, despite one of our party being in a wheelchair. They just gave us a cart and left us to our own devices.Bottled water was $3 each, where many places we've stayed at a similar price point offer free water (especially in summer!).
