Detroit Hotels… Motels… Holiday Inns… say what!?
If you’re going to Oakaloosa, then you may want to stay overnight close to Historic Fort Wayne. We get it. You may be coming as far as Chicago, New York or Florida.
Or you are a grown person who does grown person things and want to be responsible. Either way, you may need some help for finding the right place for the night.
Fortunately, Detroit has a lot of options. The city has everything from cheap by-the-hour motels to lavish, palatial suites. There is a place for every kind of person and budget.
We have produced a list of all the options which are close to Historic Fort Wayne. Hopefully, you guys will extend your financial impact and patronize one of Detroit’s many establishments. When you check-in, make sure to tell them you are there for Oakaloosa Music Festival!
Please note some of these hotels may already be booked on the night of the festival. Unfortunately, we cannot keep tabs on that. We are too busy ensuring the festival rocks!
Detroit Bed & Breakfasts
Honor and Folly
Located in Corktown, right about Slows BBQ, Honor & Folly is “a small-scale, design-focused Detroit inn”. Decorated with arts and crafts from local artists, a bedroom can be booked for $165 per night. You can book both rooms for $215.
Inn on Ferry Street
The Inn on Ferry Street is an elegant, storied experience. Many on our team like to stay here for a Detroit stay-cation. You can book a room as low as $159 per night, but it looks like they may not have any vacancies.
Detroit Hostel(s)
Hostel Detroit
This hostel, opened by Emily Doerr, has been in opened since April 2011. It is a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit. A part of the mission of the hostel is to ensure patrons truly experience Detroit and not just limit themselves to where they are resting their heads. You can stay at Hostel Detroit for as low as $30 per night.
Downtown Detroit Hotels and Motels
There are too many hotels and motels in downtown Detroit to give each hotel a review. We have linked to each one and tried to list them in descending order in terms of price. The hotels at the top of this list tend to be more expensive. The ones towards the bottom of this list are less expensive.
The ones in the center will likely be where festival goers will gravitate. We definitely recommend you do your homework, if you’re picky about your hotel stays. Yet we feel most will have a decent stay at the places we list here.
Hi, I’m Hubert and I’ll be your social resource for all things Oakaloosa. Any tweet or status update you see, it is likely I am behind it. When I’m not managing Oakaloosa’s social channels, you can find in most places on the web as “HubertGAM”.
