Home Away From Home

The hotels tend to fill up fast on and around game dates, so make sure you book your rooms as soon as possible. Also remember that staying in Fairmont or Bridgeport is a very good option, as they are easily accessible from I-79 and may save you some money. If all of the hotels fill up, you may have to book a hotel in Washington or Pittsburgh, PA.

The Best

Waterfront Place Hotel
Waterfront Place Hotel : One of the nicer hotels in the area. Make sure to book early if you would like to stay here! Fun fact: Dana Holgorsen is staying here while his home is being built in Morgantown.

Residence Inn : Right next to Mountaineer Field. Considered to be the most convenient hotel for Mountaineer games, with access to tailgating and all of the pregame festivities just across the street. Get a room here and you'll be closer to the action than most of the locals!

Hotel Morgan, downtown Morgantown
Euro-Suites: Not far from stadium and within walking distance of Kegler's sports bar. 
    
Clarion Hotel Morgan: Located downtown. Great if you intend to explore the night life.

Hilton Garden Inn: Near chain restaurants and shopping, just off of I-79.

Other Options
These hotels are great, but they are a little far from campus so you may miss out on the game day atmosphere if you plan on hanging around the hotel room. On the other hand, these may save you some money. And who wants to stay in the hotel all day anyhow? Get out and explore the town!

Marriott Fairfield Inn, Fairmont WV
Marriott SpringHill Suites
Holiday Inn: Near chain restaurants and shopping, just off of I-68.

Comfort Inn: Far from campuses, but close to shuttle site (Mountaineer Mall).

Marriott SpringHill Suites: About a 15 minute drive to the stadium (without traffic).

Clarion Inn (Fairmont): Located just off of I-79 in Fairmont.

Marriott Fairfield Inn (Fairmont):  Another nice hotel, located just off I-79. 

Up next: WV Entertainment, the sights and sounds of WV.
