Walking directions
Walk times are estimates based on an average adult walking pace from the listed entrance. Actual times vary with your gate, game day crowd flow, and street closures. Google Maps may choose a different gate or omit private indoor connections; follow the listed route notes and venue access rules for onsite hotels.
The Perkins Road and Highway 51 hotels are 1.5 miles or more from the gates across arterial roads with incomplete sidewalks, so they are excluded.
Walking from your hotel to the gates
The campus core is the walk
Stillwater's hotel supply sits out on the highway, so the campus Student Union hotel is the only walkable bed. The route runs through the middle of campus, which is where the tailgates and the band march are.
Note: Hall of Fame Avenue closes to traffic on game days; use the marked pedestrian crossings that staff open near the gates.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a hotel on the Oklahoma State campus?
Yes. The Atherton Hotel is inside the Student Union, roughly 10 minutes on foot from the Boone Pickens Stadium west gates.
Can you walk to Boone Pickens Stadium from a Stillwater highway hotel?
Not within our rule. Those hotels are more than 1.5 miles out along arterials with sidewalk gaps, so we do not list them as walkable.
Our walkable-only rule
Every hotel on this page has a continuous pedestrian route from a Boone Pickens Stadium entrance: sidewalk, plaza or covered walkway, with no freeway crossing and no shuttle. Anything beyond roughly a 18-minute walk, or separated by a highway, river or rail corridor with no crossing, is excluded — however close it looks on a map.
