Best Hotels To Stay At In Ann Arbor?
We have a block of rooms at the Fairfield Inn, and a few rooms at the Hampton Inn. Every hotel in the area is otherwise sold out (Campus Inn, Bell Tower, Sheraton, Courtyard, Fairfield, Residence Inn, Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn).
Contact me through my company website and I'll be happy to get you set up: http://www.sportspowerweekends.com/michigan-football-sports-power-weeke…
we stay there every year and get to see the team arrive on Friday evening and leave for the buses on Saturday morning.

With the development of powerful acting we may notice an boost of new products, products whose risk has now been completely analyzed. solidremote.com
Residence Inn. No question. Its one of a group of hotels (most of which I have stayed in) near Victor's Way. Large rooms and good service. Try to get a room that's not part of the main building.
I've stayed here before. Great location, had no issues. Plus the rooms ARE quite large, will always have a kitchenette, and have a bed as well as a pullout sofa.
They'll also probably have a pretty decent breakfast (i.e. eggs, bacon, toast, waffles, fruit, etc) and a pretty good parking situation.
Homewood Suites in Brighton in case you cannot get closer. 20 minutes from Ann Arbor.
Only 13 miles north of the stadium. According to their web site, there are still rooms for both Friday and Saturday @ $120 per night.
It's been a while since I've stayed there, so I offer no assurances to the condition of the hotel but I'm sure it will be more than suitable as a place to crash.
Don't go to Brighton. The drive down 23 to AA is horrible. Stay in Chelsea.
There's also a Sleep Inn in Milan, which is 15 minutes outside AA.
No offence bro but, your brother, an alumnus, can't tell you which hotel to stay in (or should I say try to stay in, considering it's May 28th) for the game?
that place is awesome and they have shuttle service to and from the game.

Saty at the Embassy Hotel on 4th and Huron. You will never forget it!
Good lord! I live 1.7 miles from the stadium and would let you sleep in my bed and drop you off at the gate for that! I might even throw in a dog and a beer at my tailgate.
For $120 you can pitch a tent on my lawn and I'll give you bathroom priviledges.
Rather than do that, last year we rented a place on a lake just past Dexter for the Iowa game. I'd consider going that route if you can't find a place on campus.
Weber Inn is great, but its not right in town. You'll need to drive into town or take a cab there and back. And that'll be hell before/after the game. Kensington Place is too, right off of I-94 and I'm pretty sure they shuttle people to the game. There's a Holiday Inn just off of North Campus as well, and you could take the student bus down to State St with all the drunk freshman. Hell, you could try and see if there are any rooms at the B-School. Not sure if that'd work, but its worth a shot.
Shhhh. Don't let out this secret. I've been driving in for games and parking up on Plymouth road for awhile now. Walk across the street. Jump on a bus. Ride it down to State st and enjoy the walk to the stadium.
Good suggestion, though that is also sold out.
In regards to those chains not having a soul, they are reputable, clean, safe and have beds. Never had a problem having stayed there many times and putting many people up there.
And is (confusingly) across the street from what is now the Comfort Inn. I had reservations at the Comfort Inn for UTL 2011 and as the room was disgusting (stains on the blanket and bedspread you didn't need a black light to see) and the hotel refused to clean the room and was otherwise sold out, we opted to drive home.
I've heard bad things
Check the hotels by Briarwood Mall on State and on Washtenaw and 23. Also check Clarion Hotel and Convention center. None of these are exactly walkable, but are a short cab ride and some might have shuttles gameday.
If you can gather up a few people, another idea is gamedayhousing.com and renting a house.
The rooms we have at the Marriott Fairfield and Hampton Inn include gameday shuttle transportation.
Anyone can feel free to contact me through my site if interested: http://www.sportspowerweekends.com/michigan-football-sports-power-weeke…
Stayed at the Regents for the NE game in 2011. Not a bad place but they did have the two night min.
Gets my vote as to where I would stay if I did not live in Ann Arbor
Lamp Post Inn at Stadium & Washtenaw. Cheap and nothing fancy but worked fine for me last time I stayed in AA.

If you're for looking the best business center or nicest lobby, this isn't the place for you, but it's the most convenient hotel location in A2 and the area is much nicer than the Briarwood parking lot complex.
But I'd recommend checking craigslist first to scan the available short-term residential rental options before you go the expedia.com route. You might find something nice downtown or in a neighborhood right by the stadium.
They might also be sold out, but try Weber's Inn. If that doesn't work, there are a ton of B&B's in town that usually have vacancies.
Just make friends with some students during the game and crash out on the floor of their apartment. Problem solved.
At this late date you are going to have a tough time getting within 15 miles of Ann Arbor.
I just booked at Days Inn Ann Arbor literally 7 minutes ago for 2 rooms.
Find somebody near stadium that wouldn't mind you staging car overnight. Get up early, grab some coffee and breakfast and roll out. Safely! With good memories from whopping ND UTL's!
You pay gas anyways so the cost of rental is much less than trying to get that close by at this point. If you can swap with a buddy, even better.
Good luck! Go Blue!!
If you're willing to pay, but want comfort and ease, but can't find a room anywhere close, rent an RV. Sleeping space, facilities, and a place to tailgate. Parking is ridiculous ($) at Pioneer, but for a night game it'd be nice to be able to walk a couple hundred yards back to your tailgate, party all night, then crash right there. And if you're not driving really far (he said Chelsea, right?) and you're not using up a lot of gas, I imagine it's not TOO much more than the jacked up room rates for the close hotels. And you get to go to sleep UTL.
Never done it for a home game, but for the '98 Rose Bowl a bunch of college friends got one and we all crammed into it in the Rose Bowl parking lot. And the night before was a blast.
I do this every couple of years and stay mostly at Michigan League, Campus Inn, and Bell Tower. But I call in a year ahead, and even then, you cannot get a room for the top games unless you are a regular. I had a room at the Inn for the Akron game but then I got the UTL2 game tix and scrambled for the hotel and got a room at Fairfield at $240/night and I feel lucky to get that. At this late juncture, you need to pray for a cancellation or some alternate lodgings.
