Hotels vs. Short-term Rentals
Events such as the Super Bowl often draw in massive crowds who travel in packs. A short-term rental option fits perfectly for groups seeking space, comfort and privacy. Home rentals often come with private kitchens, swimming pools, BBQs, and backyards which lend itself better than hotels for those traveling with multiple people.
Hotel Rooms Costing $500+ A Night?!
For fans heading to Glendale, the highlight of the weekend is surely game day, and the events leading up to it, not where you lay to rest. With championship tickets being sold north of $1K each, saving hundreds on a place to stay surely deserves a touchdown dance.
Every year event hosts, brands and corporate executives implement hotel blocks to accommodate massive corporate groups traveling to the Super Bowl. Multiple floors of hotels will be reserved months in advance, automatically driving prices up for fans looking to book come playoff time. This crowding leaves the majority of travelers with little inventory at a hefty marked up price.
According to Priceline, the average 3-star hotel for Super Bowl weekend will cost between $400-$500/night. To compare, the average 1-bedroom short-term rental in the Glendale area is listed at just $199/night on Tripping.com. Though this is a 32.6% increase over the usual 1-bedroom rate of $150/night, it's a great deal compared to the remaining available lodging options.
