Kentucky Wildcats quarterback Kaiya Sheron scrambles from South Carolina Gamecocks linebacker Jordan Burch (5) during football game against South Carolina at Kroger Field in Lexington, Ky., Oct. 8. Here’s how much you can expect to pay for a hotel room in Lexington on a home game weekend.
The Wildcats will take on Mississippi State University at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at Kroger Field, and depending on how much you’re willing to spend, you can still snag a game ticket.
If you’re visiting from out of town and will need a hotel room, you may be stuck paying premium prices. We’ve rounded up pricing for eight Lexington-area accommodations, starting at $114.99 and going up to $549 for Saturday night.
Prices are current as of Oct. 13 through each hotel’s direct website and reflect rates for standard two-person rooms, pre-tax. Prices vary based on when and how you book and whether you’re a rewards member with a particular chain.
Here are single-night prices for Lexington-area hotels for this weekend, Oct. 18 to 19 and Oct. 29 to 30 so you can compare with weekday and weekend rates (though Oct. 29 and 30 could be more expensive than other weekends because Halloween is the following Monday).
