Please help with motel information close to Commonwealth

Can anyone recommend motels close to the stadium? Thanks in advance

Hilton Suites at Lexington Green is nice, that's at Nicholasville Rd and New Circle a couple of miles south of the stadium. . . . a cheaper alternative is the Red Roof, also on N'ville Rd just inside of New Circle. . . I think there may be a fairly new Holiday Inn Express near campus, off Limestone.. . .

The Holiday Inn Express is at Virginia Avenue and Export Street, phone 859-389-6800. Waller Place Inn, at the corner of Limestone and Waller is closest (you can see Commonwealth from there), phone 859-278-6625. Crowne Plaza Campbell House is at Waller and South Broadway, 859-255-4281. There's also a small suites-type hotel next to the Crowne Plaza, but I can't recall the name just now.

The Springs Inn at the corner of Harrodsburg Rd and Lane Allen. It's 2 miles from the stadium.

Actually, proximity to the stadium should not be a concern. Virtually everything in Lexington is close to the stadium or an easy drive.

There is a cluster of about a dozen hotels at one of the exits off 64 just north of Lexington. I used to stay there all the time. When I was alone and going cheap, I'd stay at the Knights Inn. When I had my girlfriend with me, we would stay across the street at the Hampton. And, It was only 15 minutes or less to the stadium.

That is where I stay when not driving back to Louisville

We stay at the SpringHill Suites (Marriott) on Broadway and Virginia Av. Close to the Red Mile. Very nice and less than 4 yrs old. Less than 4 miles from Commonwealth

I wouldn't have recommended that place to anyone, what a dump!

That used to be Yocum's. Just called the number and they answered "University Inn". Didn't ask the physical address.

It's the same place. I had forgotten that the name changed. Note, Yocum's was demolished and a new facility built on the site several years ago.

sorry i am late with this response. I would recommend you stay downtown at the Hyatt, Radisson or Gratz Park Inn. There is a very cheap shuttle bus service from downtown to the game with express service (no lights).

All the great restaurants and bars are downtown too!
