Ride a waterslide before your 9 AM meeting. 🌊

One of two hotels on the Younes Campus lets you do that. Holiday Inn Kearney is our full-service flagship, and it does a little bit of everything — big.

The indoor Water Center has adult and kids' waterslides, a splash zone with its very own octopus, and a hot tub for the grown-ups. 🐙

Joy's Table Pasta & Steak is right inside the hotel. And out front, 23,000 sq ft of convention and meeting space that handles groups up to 700 — one of the busiest meeting facilities in the state.

Fitness center, game room, guest laundry, free Wi-Fi, and a microwave and fridge in every room. Off I-80 at exit 272, right next to the conference center.

Business up front. Waterslides out back. Book direct with IHG.

The Nebraska State Fair is on at Fonner Park through September 7 — and we're minutes up the road. 🎡

Fairfield Inn & Suites Grand Island is the easy home base for fair week: free hot breakfast with sausage, eggs, and waffles before a day at the fairgrounds, then an indoor pool and hot tub for the wind-down.

Fitness center, guest laundry, fast free Wi-Fi, rooms and suites with one king or two queens, and meeting space for up to 60 with catering if you need it.

Find us just off Highway 281 at West Faidley, surrounded by restaurants and shopping — right next door to our Candlewood Suites, with our Hampton Inn across town. Three Younes hotels, one growing GI family.

See you at the Fair. Book direct with Marriott.

Some stays are measured in weeks, not nights. 🏠

Candlewood Suites Kearney is our all-suite, extended-stay hotel on the Younes Campus — and every single suite has a full kitchen. Full-size fridge, cooktop, microwave, dishwasher, cookware. Actually cook, not just reheat.

Then there's the Candlewood Cupboard in the lobby, where you can borrow anything from a crockpot to a board game to a basketball. Plus free guest laundry, a fitness center, an indoor pool, and yes — we're pet friendly. 🐾

Traveling nurses, project crews, relocating families, long business trips: this one was built for you. And the conference centers, campus dining, and Younes Landing are all just steps away.

Settle in. Stay awhile. Book direct with IHG.

Your meeting is one hallway away. 🚶

Fairfield Inn & Suites Kearney connects to Younes Conference Center South by an enclosed walkway — so you can wake up, grab breakfast, and walk straight into your first session. No coat. No car. No scraping a windshield in January.

Free hot breakfast with sausage, eggs, and waffles. Indoor pool and hot tub for the end of the day. Fitness center, guest laundry, fast free Wi-Fi, and a microwave and fridge in every room.

We're off I-80 at exit 272 in the heart of the campus, steps from campus dining and minutes from Younes Landing, the Drop Zone, and the Kearney SportsPlex.

Planning something? Book direct with Marriott — or message us and we'll help you sort the room block.

Kool-Aid Days hits Hastings August 14–16, and we've got your landing spot. 🥤

Three days of the Grand Parade, the duck race, kardboard boat races, and more red mustaches than you can count — and Holiday Inn Express Hastings is right there in the Cimarron Plaza off Highway 281.

Free Express Start breakfast with warm cinnamon rolls and pancakes in a minute flat. Indoor heated pool and hot tub for the post-parade cooldown. 24-hour fitness center, guest laundry, fast free Wi-Fi, and a microwave, fridge, and coffee maker in every room.

We're next door to the Smith Softball Complex and minutes from the Hastings Museum, Hastings College, and downtown.

Coming for Kool-Aid Days? Book direct with IHG before the weekend fills up.

Let's be honest: people come for the cinnamon rolls. 🥐

Holiday Inn Express Kearney sits just off I-80 on 2nd Avenue, right across the interstate from the Younes Campus — and the free Express Start breakfast has warm cinnamon rolls, hot favorites, and a bean-to-cup coffee machine running 24/7 in the lobby.

Add a heated indoor pool and whirlpool, a 24-hour fitness center, and free parking with room for trucks and buses. Every room has a microwave, fridge, and coffee maker.

The Younes Conference Centers, campus dining, UNK, and the Archway are all minutes away.

Smart stay, sweet start. Book direct with IHG.

Two brands. One roof. Zero compromises. 🏨

Our dual-brand hotel on the Younes Campus is really two hotels sharing a front door — Tru by Hilton for bright, social, easy nights, and Home2 Suites for all-suite living with a kitchen when you're staying a while.

The shared spaces are the fun part: a game room with arcade classics and a pool table set against a one-of-a-kind Kearney mural, a lobby built for hanging out instead of just checking in, an indoor pool, and TWO breakfasts — Tru's build-your-own Top It bar and Home2's hot spread.

It's one of 1,100+ rooms we keep in Kearney, and it's steps from Younes Landing's dining and entertainment.

Which side are you — Tru or Home2? 👇 Book direct with Hilton.
