The Best Cheap Hotels To Book In Jackson Mississippi

The city of Jackson, Mississippi, is known as the City with Soul for its triumphant spirit. It played integral roles in the Civil Rights Movement, the Civil War and the development of blues and jazz music. Artists, musicians, filmmakers and more contribute to a thriving arts scene in the city. But the best part about a visit to Mississippi’s capital? It’s totally affordable, especially with these great cheap hotels in Jackson – bookable on Culture Trip.

The Hilton Garden Inn is located in a gorgeous historic building in downtown Jackson – you’ll enter through grand columns into an elegant lobby with a dramatic staircase and wrought iron chandeliers. Book a standard king or queen room, or upgrade to a room that comes stocked with drinks and snacks. You’re less than 1mi (1.6km) from some of the city’s major attractions, such as Jackson State University, the Mississippi Coliseum and the Old Capitol Museum.

2. Old Capitol Inn, for a heritage honeymoon

After sitting vacant for several years, a local family purchased the building that used to house the city’s YWCA to renovate it and reopen it as a bed and breakfast. The Malouf family still owns the inn and it has become a premier destination for affordable stays, weddings and events (especially thanks to its beautiful New Orleans-style courtyard). Book a whirlpool tub honeymoon suite if you’re seeking a romantic getaway.
