WHERE TO STAY

Top hotels near Memorial Stadium

Bloomington offers a solid range of accommodations, with most hotels clustered along State Road 46 east of campus or near the downtown square. Booking early is essential for football weekends, as inventory is limited and prices can double or triple for marquee matchups. Downtown hotels put you within walking distance of both the stadium and Bloomington's excellent restaurant and bar scene. Budget-conscious fans can find chain hotels along the SR 46/I-69 corridor, though you'll need to drive or rideshare to campus on game day.
