The Spotlight on Travelers Inn Gainesville

Affordable Comfort Just Minutes from Gainesville's Music Scene

Modern convenience meets no-fuss charm at Travelers Inn Gainesville, a laid-back motel-style stay just 2.9 miles north of downtown. With a location ideal for catching shows across Gainesville, this budget-friendly spot offers essential amenities like free Wi-Fi, a relaxing outdoor pool, and rooms with microwaves and fridges for easy late-night snacking.

Whether you're in town for a stadium concert or a smaller local venue, this simple stay keeps you close to the action without breaking your budget.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert-goers love the easy 10-minute drive to downtown Gainesville venues, as well as the stress-free 24-hour front desk for those late arrivals after a show. Rooms are equipped with cable TV (including HBO) for winding down, and the quiet, off-downtown location helps you actually sleep after a night of loud music. Free Wi-Fi lets you stream your favorite artist’s setlist before heading out.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to split a room and save
  • Solo travelers chasing their favorite artist
  • Couples on a budget-friendly music getaway
  • Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery space
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who prefer to spend on tickets, not rooms

Food and Drink Options

While there's no on-site restaurant, each room comes with a microwave and fridge—handy for leftovers or quick bites. Vending machines are available for late-night snacks, and several casual eateries are just a short drive or ride away. Planning a late morning after a show? Grab breakfast nearby, as the location puts you close to multiple diners and cafes.

Nightlife Options

You're only minutes away from Gainesville’s downtown nightlife, including live music bars, craft breweries, and student-friendly pubs. While there’s no bar on-site, the motel’s location makes it easy to catch an Uber or Lyft to the action and back.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the affordable rates and the convenience of the location. Many mention the friendly, 24-hour front desk staff and the cleanliness of the rooms. The quiet setting away from the noise of downtown is also a plus for those looking to unwind after a concert.

Areas for Improvement

This is a motel-style property, so don’t expect luxury or trendy decor. Some guests have noted the furnishings are a bit dated, and the pool area could use a refresh. That said, for the price and proximity to venues, most concertgoers feel it’s a great value.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers looking for a no-frills, budget-friendly stay near Gainesville’s music venues, Travelers Inn Gainesville delivers comfort, convenience, and value.

Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Kara, Brandon, visiting Alachua County Fairgrounds

I had to pay when I checked in. There was blood on one of our pillows. One of the light switches didn't work. I don't care how much money I would save staying there - I would never go back.

Liked: Close to the Alachua County Fairgrounds.
Disliked: Blood on a pillow.

Very good

Liked: Great location, local to downtown or UF. Owner was very nice, and check-in was very easy. The rooms are simple and old-styled but very comfortable and clean. AC worked amazingly!!!
Disliked: A major improvement would be to include a coffee maker! Overall though, amenities were sufficient.
