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.
Biddle Hotel in the Indiana Memorial Union is about a 25-minute walk and is outside the 18-minute college limit. Downtown Bloomington and the Square are 30-plus minutes from the gates on foot. The IU campus bus runs the same Fee Lane route on game day if the walk is too long.
Walking from your hotel to the gates
Fee Lane from the Union
Memorial Stadium sits at the north end of the Indiana campus, about a mile from the Memorial Union. Fee Lane is the direct route and stays on campus sidewalks the whole way.
Note: Kickoff traffic on 17th Street is heavy — cross at the signal by the Wildermuth intramural center rather than at the lot entrances.

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