Piggybacking off the restaurant recommendation post, what you got on hotels, casinos or otherwise.
MS Gulf Coast Hotel Recommendations
- Thread starter Braves Dawg
- Start date
What are you wanting to stay near? If the Biloxi Casinos, there's several reasonable priced ABnBs around Mary Mahoney's. To stay at the Beau on a weekend night can get pricy, check our the ABnBs instead.
The Hotel Legends is nice and it's right across the street from the Beau. I've stayed there multiple times and it's a good location. If you're looking a little further down beach boulevard the Whitehouse Hotel is nice as well. The Beau is nice but can be a bit pricey. Those are my recommendations as far as hotels go.
Beau Rivage or Hard Rock if the prices are decent. Casinos are usually reasonable on week night. There is a Doubletree by Hilton about 1/2 mile from the stadium.
Second on Legends good location with a great bar. I believe all rooms are suites.
Was assisted living place that I was told Katrina shut down and has been totally redone
True. And now is a badass hotel. I'm a Best Western Oak Manor guy myself.
If you have kids Margaritaville is fun for the Waterpark and the rooms are clean. Nugget and Hard Rock are not great for non smokers.
We are just exploring really. We want to hit some good restaurants. I have heard Legends was walking distance from some places. Will likely visit Ocean Springs during the day one day.
Find out where JeffreauxPopsPoo sends his employees. THAT'S where you want to be!
South Beach Biloxi isn’t bad. All suites, next to Sharkheads and Shaggys. It too can get pricey on the weekends tho
If you plan to walk around, you probably want to stay at one of the 7-8 options between the Double Tree and Hilton Garden Inn. There’s 2-3 other options(Hyatt Place, Hampton Inn, White House) just west of the Double Tree but not as friendly for walking the area around the stadium to the town green and harbor. The ones to the west aren’t as bad for walking if you plan to visit the breweries on Howard Ave but venture there at your own risk.
We stayed at Centennial Plaza for soccer last year. Pretty cool place. Good enough place to eat lunch. Lazy river and a big enough pool area for my almost teenagers to enjoy. They have a bar on site too.
Some good hotels in Ocean Springs, the new OS Hotel and The Roost. Completely different vibe than Biloxi, but right in heart of Ocean Springs.
I think there are 2-3 other similar types in downtown and a couple on Porter plus there are plenty of cabins/cottages throughout the downtown area and historic areas between the OS harbor and HWY90. Just depends on the goals. Living in the area, I personally would rather stay in OS than Biloxi but everyone has their taste.
Just stay in downtown OS at a cool boutique hotel… The Springs, The Roost, OS Hotel @ OS1515, The Beatnik, or the brand new Hotel Mojo in the heart of downtown.
ETA: You folks that come to the Coast and spend the majority of your time around casinos are missing out.
I second OS. Much better than the smoke filled casino hotels.
Yes, Legends is nice and in walking distance of everything. There’s a hotel next door to Legends that’s nice also. If staying there, walk across the street to Felix’s for dinner.
McElroy’s is across the street from Legends. Felix’s is 9 miles to the west. Almost to Gulfport.
We decided to stay in Ocean Springs at The Roost. Thanks for the recommendations!
Thank you sir! That is correct, I had them mixed up. McElroy's is were we go and sit outside overlooking the Gulf. There's usually a bum cracked out in that walk over thing (coming from Legends going to McElroys).
I don’t know about best but it’s good. Sports bar with food, drink, and counter to place bets. It’s right off gambling floor too so short walk to black jack
No one has a sports book quite like the Beau. Harrah’s is a pretty calm smaller one with decent TV coverage.
Hard Rock is just too smoky. And this is coming from someone who smoked at the time I went.
