The Spotlight on The Kindler Hotel

Stylish Downtown Stay Steps from the Stage

Modern, upscale, and perfectly placed in downtown Lincoln, The Kindler Hotel blends boutique luxury with walkable access to the city’s top concert venues. With a chic lounge, 24-hour service, and polished design touches throughout, it’s a favorite for travelers who want comfort without sacrificing style.
You're just minutes from the Pinnacle Bank Arena, Lied Center for Performing Arts, and Sheldon Art Museum—making it easy to soak up the city’s vibrant cultural scene.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is a short stroll from Lincoln's biggest music venues, so you can leave your car behind and enjoy the night. The 24-hour front desk and luggage storage mean no stress if you're arriving late or checking out after a show. Plus, rooms are well soundproofed—ideal for catching up on sleep after a loud encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish and central base
  • Solo travelers catching a dream concert
  • Couples planning a romantic music-filled weekend
  • Fans who want to unwind in peace post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers seeking value in a boutique setting

Food and Drink Options

The Kindler’s sleek on-site bar serves up craft cocktails and small bites perfect for a pre-show warm-up or nightcap. While there’s no full restaurant, you’re surrounded by walkable dining options, and room service is available for late-night cravings. Rooms also come with a fridge, minibar, and coffee machine—ideal for those post-show snacks or lazy mornings.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no live music on-site, you’re close to some of Lincoln’s buzzing nightlife—from cozy lounges to energetic bars. The hotel’s own bar offers a relaxed vibe, perfect for recapping the night over a local brew or cocktail before heading to bed.

What People Say

Guest reviews praise the stylish interiors, friendly staff, and exceptionally clean rooms. Travelers love the location—especially how walkable it is to venues and restaurants. The vibe is upscale without being stuffy, with many calling it a hidden gem in Lincoln.

Areas for Improvement

There’s no full-service restaurant on-site, so if you're craving a full dinner without leaving the hotel, you may need to rely on local delivery or nearby eateries. Also, parking is not always included in the room rate—something to double-check if you're driving in.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want boutique luxury just minutes from Lincoln’s top venues, The Kindler Hotel delivers style, convenience, and comfort in equal measure.

Great Hotel, amazing rooms, great...

Liked: The staff at Kindler are amazing. There were very accommodating. If we ever find ourselves in Lincoln we will stay there again for sure.
Disliked: The bathrooms have motion lights and the bathroom doors are frosted glass so if you go to the bathroom in the middle of the night you get very bright lights right in your eyes but it wakes up others sleeping in the room as well. Completely unnecessary and disruptive if you are traveling with a spouse or family. They need to disable the motion lights.

Perfect weekend escape to Lincoln

Liked: Kindler is a great experience— beautiful rooms, spotlessly clean, great staff, perfect location for Lied or other UNL venues. Their bartender even makes fabulous cocktails — including a perfect Bee’s Knees!
