With baseball season in full swing, it’s time for fans to make their game-day plans. For those traveling to the game, that can require finding a hotel to serve as a home base.
After all, sports and travel go together like peanuts and Cracker Jack. According to a 2024 American Express survey, of people who travel at least once a year, 58% of respondents said they were interested in traveling for sporting events this year, with 67% of millennial and Generation Z respondents citing interest.
When it comes to lodging, interesting choices for baseball fans include hotels that offer memorabilia tied to local teams or views of the stadiums. Some offer discounts or promotions centered around the team’s performance. Here are some hotels that are a home run for baseball fans.
Baltimore Orioles
Hilton Baltimore Inner Harbor
Located next to Oriole Park at Camden Yards, this hotel makes it easy to get inside the ballpark. But you might not even need to buy a ticket to watch the game, as many of the hotel rooms overlook the stadium.
If you intend to watch from your room, request a higher floor for a better view.
Boston Red Sox
Hotel Commonwealth
Multiple rooms within Boston’s Hotel Commonwealth embody the spirit of baseball. For example, the Fenway Park Suite patio features original ballpark seats. Inside, there’s Red Sox memorabilia, including vintage baseball cards and the “6” from the Green Monster scoreboard.
The hotel also sells game packages, which include an overnight stay and game tickets. Depending on the package, you’ll get extras such as a signed baseball or a personalized message on the scoreboard during the game.
San Francisco Giants
Hyatt Regency San Francisco
The Hyatt Regency San Francisco embraces not just the Giants, but also all the city’s sports teams. Through the end of 2024, the hotel is running a promotion for free valet parking and a room upgrade. Plus, if a San Francisco home team wins, you’ll be treated to two complimentary drinks from the bar in the hotel’s iconic brutalist-style atrium.
St. Louis Cardinals
Live! By Lowes-St. Louis
Located across the street from Busch Stadium and in the heart of Ballpark Village, the Live! By Loews-St. Louis is not only convenient, but its particular location also holds serious Cardinals history. The 216-room hotel sits on the former site of Busch Stadium II, which operated until 2005.
Toronto Blue Jays
Toronto Marriott City Centre Hotel
Toronto Marriott City Centre Hotel, located within the Rogers Centre, offers a unique viewing experience for Blue Jays fans. Book one of the field-view guest rooms for floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic views of the field and stadium.
You can also watch from the hotel’s restaurant, the Sportsnet Grill, which has giant windows overlooking the field, while the restaurant’s speakers stream the game’s audio. Baseball-inspired menu items include the 24-inch Slugger hot dog.
