WHERE TO STAY

Top hotels near Delaware Stadium

Newark offers a manageable hotel scene with options ranging from budget-friendly chains to comfortable boutique stays. Most accommodations cluster along Route 896 and near the I-95 interchange, putting fans within a short drive or rideshare of campus. For a walkable experience, look for lodging closer to Main Street, which provides easy access to both pregame dining and the stadium. Book early for homecoming and rivalry weekends, as inventory is limited in this small college town. Wilmington, about 15 minutes north on I-95, offers additional options if Newark fills up.
