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.
Walking from your hotel to the gates
West End is the walkable strip
FirstBank Stadium fronts directly onto West End Avenue, and the hotel cluster runs east from the gates toward Midtown. You will not need a car for a Vanderbilt weekend.
Note: West End does not close to traffic — use the signals at 25th and Natchez Trace rather than crossing mid-block.

Our walkable-only rule
Every hotel on this page has a continuous pedestrian route from a FirstBank 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.
