The Spotlight on Travelodge by Wyndham Gaylord

Easy Comforts in the Heart of Gaylord

Modern and laid-back, Travelodge by Wyndham Gaylord is a reliable and budget-friendly choice in northern Michigan. Located right on West Main Street, it's perfectly positioned for a relaxing stay whether you're in town for a concert, outdoor adventure, or just passing through. With cozy rooms, essential comforts like hair dryers and toiletries, and a refreshing indoor pool, this hotel keeps things simple while ensuring a restful time.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert attendees love this spot for its central location in Gaylord, making it easy to reach local venues without the stress of downtown parking. After the show, you’ll find the atmosphere peaceful—ideal for winding down post-gig. The 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out offer a bit of flexibility. While public transportation is limited in this small town, the area is easy to navigate by car or rideshare.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable, comfortable base
  • Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list show
  • Couples making a music-filled weekend getaway
  • Fans seeking quiet recovery after a loud night out
  • Budget-conscious music lovers not needing luxury but still wanting comfort

Food and Drink Options

You won’t find on-site dining at the hotel, but it’s a quick walk or drive to several casual spots along Main Street. Great for grabbing a bite before or after a show. While there’s no 24/7 room service, rooms with mini-bars make it easy to stash your own snacks or drinks for late-night munchies. Breakfast options are nearby and easy to access the next morning.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel doesn’t offer on-site nightlife, you’re close to downtown Gaylord’s cozy pubs and local bars. Whether you're into live music, craft beer, or just want to unwind, you'll find a few welcoming spots within a short drive to keep the night going.

What People Say

Guests often highlight the clean rooms, friendly staff, and good value for money. Many appreciate the quiet environment—especially after a high-energy concert—and the heated indoor pool is a fan favorite for relaxing the next day.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel could benefit from some modern updates in room decor, and a few guests have noted occasional noise from neighboring rooms. There’s no on-site restaurant or bar, so you’ll need to head out for meals and drinks—but that’s part of the small-town charm.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a no-fuss, comfortable place to crash after a show in Gaylord, Travelodge by Wyndham Gaylord is a solid and affordable pick.

Friendly staff but filthy, badly maintained accommodations.

Liked: The staff was very friendly and accommodating, allowing us to check in a little early so we could dress for a wedding that started at check-in time. Also helped us get into our room door with a hearty shove!
Disliked: The place was a shambles: corridor door didnt lock, door to the room stuck badly, bathroom ceiling paint was falling down, bath tiles stained and damaged, hallway carpet filthy and smelled of (I dont know what - urine? - but it wasnt good), hallway carpet was dirty and unswept, ice machine out of order, television was sketchy (channel 3 only one that formatted correctly), and no hand soap! Im read the hotel is being remodeled (and I saw a pallet of countertop debris in the parking lot) but they either have a long way to go or are doing the bare minimum to keep the doors open in this place. Sad about what $130 buys you these days, but we just needed a place to crash.

Being Renovated

Liked: Amazing staff. But they were few and overworked. I appreciated that I actually GOT a room, as the motel is being renovated and some reservations were not honored.
Disliked: Room had dead bugs, unswept floor, and water damage. To be fair, the entire motel is being remodeled and will be quite nice once the work is done. And there were only 8 staff doing everything. They worked very hard to accommodate me.
