Questions about the 2015 spring game

[uofmdixon]

Is there a hotel that offers shuttles to the stadium?
Do they offer tours of the football facilities?
Is there any thing I should look out for, while attending the game?

I am taking my wife and would like her to enjoy her time in AA.

These hotels are close to the stadium.

You can call them to find out about shuttle service; obviously cabbing or ubering it from a hotel near the stadium won't be too pricy.

There isn't that much else out that way (besides Briarawood Mall) except for the Ann Arbor Municipal Airport and a few cows; The Inn at the Michigan League, the Dahlman Campus Inn and the Bell Tower Hotel, which are all on campus/campus adjacent are at the top of this list (you'll see the hotels from the other list are included here too).

Those are going to be pricy; I don't know about a shuttle but a lot of people walk to the stadium from that far away for games - obviously cab or uber would be an option with them as well.

Here is info on the stadium and facilities tour(s). There's a contact name and phone number.

Hope this all helps.

what hotels gave you the best experience? I have stayed in AA before, but I go with my guy friends and don't care about being comfortable. My wife is a little more needy and I would like every thing to go smooth.

In general I would never stay at a hotel in Ann Arbor; I have family still in the area where I stay.

The only hotel I've ever stayed at is the Campus Inn for my high school senior prom, again for a high school reunion, and the summer before last when my wife and I were visiting family in Ohio, Michigan and Chicago; we got so tired of staying at other peoples' homes that we pretended that we hadn't gotten to Ann Arbor yet just so we could stay at the hotel.

The hotels on those links are for the most part pretty recognizable chains that for the most part a person would know what they're getting; the hotels on campus or campus adjacent (including the Campus Inn) are pretty luxurious with lots of amenities.

The various amenities of all the hotels are listed on those links.

Hope that helps.

Tours of the club seats are arranged before hand and probably not on the day of game as they also do alumni flag gone first

Check the website about tours

There is no real experience

Parking us free for spring game as far as I know if you go early

Not sure what pioneer parking will be like

Check what campus inn will charge

If nothing else their bar had some nice old pictures of Mivhigsn figures

One more question lol
Where should I take my wife for lunch and dinner? I have been to all the places that have been on TV shows, but was not to impressed. We are staying near downtown and would like to dine in the same area. Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks

I'm partial to Grizzly Peaks.

If you're around in the morning, go to Sweetwater for coffee. We always buy a pound to take with us.
