cbatl32 Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 Hey everyone, taking my fiance to her first Bills game. Coming in from Atlanta for the Colts game. Anyone have any good hotel recommendations for us? Also, I have our tickets, but what's the best thing to do for parking on game day? Do I need to buy anything ahead of time? Any help would be greatly appreciated!! 2
I'm Spartacus Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 The King Edward Hotel in Fort Erie is pretty good. About a half hour drive to the stadium. 😁 3
Behindenemylines Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 The Curtis downtown. Hands down do t bother elsewhere. If it was in Manhattan would be $800/night on a Tuesday in march 1 1

(25-45 minutes away) if you want to see a slice of Buffalo, that is where I would stay, since there is a lot going on within walking distance. The historic Roycroft Inn, in East Aurora, would be another good choice, and would be within walking distance (10 min.) of Bar Bill. (best wings) The Stadium is very close to E. Aurora. (10-15 min.) Wherever you decide to stay, book your hotel reservation, NOW. It is tougher to find a room, the closer that you get, to game day. For parking, the private lots are your best bet, and will usually be cheaper. It's 40 bucks to park in the Stadium lots, and not worth it, in my opinion. There are a few side streets on Abbott Rd., as you enter from Rt. 20a, (If you are coming from East Aurora) and you'll find private parking, that is very, very close to the stadium. Hotel Henry is closed unfortunately. Someone bought it but hasn’t reopened it as of present time. 1
eee1776 Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 I always stay at the Buffalo Airport inn.(Formaly the Holiday INN. Really Great rates, clean room and Resturant and bar attached. Great food also nearby eg. Buffalo brew pub.

I thought the Hotel Henry closed up in March due to Pandemic issues and revenue. Would be cool if it stayed open was a funky place for sure

chris heff Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 I’ve stayed at the Marriott Canalside a couple of times, nice lake view.

Interesting recommendations so far, I'm not surprised... 1 1
eball Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 The Mansion on Delaware. Do it, particularly if you’re bringing a romantic interest. Great hotel. 3

Not the place you would bring your fiance to for their first Buffalo football experience 3
Draconator Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 I would recommend an AirBnB. You can get a whole house to yourself, and you can cook a nice meal for your fiancee after the Bills victory. She may want to drive down to City Hall Monday morning and not want to wait. All depends on what you cook for her. Pro tip: Stay away from grilled cheese sandwiches. But seriously, look into an AirBnb.
Brennan Huff Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 The price for hotels is through the roof right now. I can tell you where not to go, the Red Roof Inn in Hamburg. I didn’t want to pay over 300 for a hotel room so I booked this place for “cheap” last Saturday (was still almost 200 bucks). This place is ghetto as *****. The room smelled like stale cigarettes, hair in the shower, walls were super thin so I could hear everything going on in the next room, etc. First time I’ve left a bad review for a hotel in my life

RyanC883 Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 Either the great recommendation here (Deleware Mansion) or a chain (a hilton, marriott, hyatt). For parking: depends on where you need to be after the game. I park at Bert’s Bike shop to hit 90 west to 79 south.

For those of a certain age , it was a popular strip joint in Fort Erie. I put a few strippers through college I think. 1
